The 3 Roles Every Parent Must Play (They need to do this).
Be a scientific parent. Read widely and educate yourself on ADHD. Experiment with your kid since not all treatments work with all kids, keep on trying till you perfect it. Be skeptical for there is a lot of bull shit out there on the internet and especially about ADHD.
Be an executive parent and take charge, make stuff happen, you are your parent's guardian and you need to do your best to make things happen and that means making yourself the president, the executive, the decider.
Be an advocate parent. Make stuff happen for your kid.

I love how this doctor not only have the knowledge but the intense passion to advocate for us ADHD people. Much love!
I love that he encourages parents to advocate. It is tiring though. The teachers, one by one, year after year, are skeptical, punitive, and judgemental ("he is lazy", "there's no problem, he just needs to be more motivated", "he needs to pull his socks up"), and unresponsive to any suggestion that he has a brain-based disorder, even with links and documents. The pediatrician is not sure about ADHD because he's not "hanging off the roof" like her other patients are. The other parent will not accept any diagnosis or medication, and doesn't even believe in the diagnosis even though it's quite apparent that this parent has had problems with self-regulation all his life. The only person who accepts it, apart from myself, is the child. Us against the world.
Im sorry youre going through that, hopefully things will get better once public knowledge of ADHD is better
I have ADHD and I understand why people don't like this message but I do. My ADHD did not make me creative. It did not make me smart. That was me. I had gifts, ADHD has made them hard to show. But I believe getting distracted and constantly running to those things reinforced them. Creativity is a muscle you flex when you let your mind run wild. Some people search for their differences, or passions to pursue them, for careers hobbies lifestyles. With ADHD I have nothing else. I am grateful for that. But it doesn't make the everyday symptoms less heinous.

Very well said 👏🏼
These presentations are the diamond in the dung heap
Being diagnosed at 25, i can only imagine how great life i would have had of my parents had seen this lecture and implemented it!!
I'm 33, adhd, I finally succeeded!
@@stevebest216 37 just diagnosed, checking in!
It wasn't a thing back in my day- I'm 31. It's a shame because I would have benefited from some understanding of it all. But my son has it too and I'm getting to learn along with him now which is testing but beautiful

But, seriously. This guy is awesome.
Wide practical applications.
Thank u for posting. I've exhausted my resources. Everyone refused to help me. Best wishes to your cause. Godspeed.
Thank you so much for your work and your knowledge! I don't know how often I listened to this talk now. So much understanding, so much valuable tips and guidance.
I wished I could lead my daughter (6) through this, but, unfortunately I first will need my medication sorted out, after she was diagnosed last year, I got the diagnosis (after years and years of suffering with the wrong diagnosis). At the moment I am not able to get myself on track to keep all her school stuff together, her medication is not ideal yet, and mine has not jet begun. I am so looking forward to get us on track. Over the years I came to use so many of the recommendet techniques (planned, journals, timer...not aware that I have ADHD ) .
I love these talks and Dr Barkley! But I can't stop thinking about how much he looks and kind of sounds like an older Michael Scott from the office haha.
Great point about a healthy skepticism! As a RDLD I'm always encouraging this too. Thank you for your honesty. It shows how much you truly care about your fellow humans. God bless you for that.
Thank you.

How does a parent begin to live the way the adhd child needs when the parent is dealing with trying to figure out how to function with adhd
I feel like there are a million stores behind his vehemence and strong words. I can feel the frustration behind it.
On another note, I've decided to call my ADHD the spicy cocoa flavor
Does anyone know his name?
Dr. Russell Barkley. He did an AMA on the ADHD subreddit some time ago if you want to do some extra reading.
Can you please share the link??
It's in the video description!
How many of these parents are ADHD?
Many parents are shown to have undiagnosed adhd.
earlier in the series he said it would probably be around 50%
If you have the disorder, seventy percent chance of your kid having it.
My parents don't but my mother's siblings do. She may have what they call like minor/recessive symptoms that don't interfere with her life in terms of symptoms.
It's genetic. But if it's not running in your family, having a kid over thirty drastically increases the chance of "starting" that genetic trend. More and more parents are having kids at thirty instead on their twenties, so numbers for the disorder and that genetic pathway (so family lines with the disorder) will go up
Exactly. Lol my parents were ADHD, and so disorganized and working jobs and having more babies there's absolutely no way they would have been able to really help a me, special needs child with an invisible illness.
".. you are your parent's guardian.." Mis-transcription I assume? Who's in charge of the synopsis/written content? Please shed light. And don't get me started on the subtitles, so wrong they must be auto-generated by some program and even worse, left uncorrected, meaning anyone without hearing-ability or wishing to ingest visually rather than auditory is presented with jibberish i.e. not what the speaker is actually saying but what it sounds like!
I will say this. Medication didn’t do me well. I found microdosing LSD much better.
I can't agree. ADHD change the way you think, making you full of thoughts what means more ideas per hour, and being a creative one.
jaga690 😏
jaga690 did you did experiment on the topic or you just came out with that idea in your head? If you believe so because you read it in the internet, you're sadly misinformed. Lots of sources said so because they're trying readers. Unable to focus on the issue actually make them less thoughtful, even if they came out with more ideas doesn't mean those ideas work.
How about having the same thoughts over and over again and you don't move on from them because you never get around to realising your ideas? You're only creative if you create.
As a psychiatric provider, this is completely false.
More thoughts... too many thoughts, too fast to tell apart, a useless whirlwind of thoughts that vanish when you try and focus on any one
Okay but how to become the executive parent if the parent itself has Adhd. Which inpacts the executive functioning 🥲😭😂😅
Or if you ARE the adult with ADHD trying to take that role for YOURSELF
