Boredom in Parenting Is as Hard as It Gets

from Attention Talk Radio · host Jeff Copper, MBA, PCC, PCAC, CPCC, ACG

Are you a parent of an ADHD child? Do you have ADHD?  Do you beat yourself up for being a bad parent, not playing with your kid, pacifying them with electronics? It's possible the elephant in the room is boredom, and you’re not alone. Many adults with ADHD struggle to play with their kids, particularly if it's not stimulating. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Caroline Maguire (www.necoaching.com), an ADHD mom with ADHD kids, and talk about that experience of boredom and how you’re not actually a bad parent.  If this speaks to you, you have to tune into the show.
