SOPs for Parenting with an ADHD Brain

After a brutal first day home alone with the baby, a listener asks for help building a system. This episode explores how to create a set of standard operating procedures (SOPs) for routine childcare and medical emergencies, specifically designed for the ADHD brain. We break down the seven essential SOPs for daily operations—from the morning startup sequence to the evening shutdown—and contrast them with the decision-tree structure needed for first aid and medical crises. The conversation covers cognitive offloading, the power of lamination, and why the best system is one you write for your most depleted self.
