Ep. 3: Causes of ADHD, Autism, Anxiety and Learning Disorders

Today's episode is all about the causes of ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, and Learning Disorders. When children have conditions like ADHD or anxiety, parents often wonder if they caused it, either through genes or choices they've made. We're going to talk about some common differences children have: ADHD, autism, anxiety, and learning disorders. We’ll also discuss how parents play a role in these conditions. We’ll explore how parents of children with ADHD sometimes feel judged by society. However, ADHD is mostly biological, not due to bad parenting. Children with ADHD simply have brains that develop differently. Next, we’ll talk about autism. Genetics and how children's brains grow are part of it. Parents don't cause autism. Children with autism think and feel things differently. Anxiety is also discussed in this episode. Genes, biology, and how children are wired play a role. Sometimes, parents who worry a lot can teach children to worry too. But it's not all down to parents. Children's feelings are also part of the mix. Learning disorders, such as difficulties with reading or maths, are also discussed seriously. So without any further ado, let’s dive straight into the episode and learn how the brain of a child with differences and disorders works. Follow me on: 1. Instagram: @leannetranpsychology2.
