'I wish you knew that my son doesn’t want to misbehave. What seems like misbehavior could be because he is overwhelmed, frustrated or embarrassed. If he is feeling any of these emotions, his brain responds by fighting, fleeing or freezing.'
. The more you can break down projects into small tasks with due dates, the more successful he will be.. Many times he has no idea that he is coming across as disrespectful, or that he is acting or saying something inappropriate. Ask him questions that help him learn to self observe, but please do it in private.he doesn’t read social cues well and therefore comes across as selfish or indifferent
. The more people I have serving as his “social coach” in a loving and respectful manner, the more likely he is to develop these skills.. If there will be unstructured time in your class, talk privately with him before class starts and let him know he will have “quiet study time,” for example, toward the end of class.He knows it is part of what makes him who he is and his parents choose to highlight the strengths that come with this diagnosis.
I wish you knew that he will go through cycles of doing well and then cycles of not doing well. He may turn in his homework for two weeks in a row, and then have a week where he struggles.I wish you knew how difficult it is for his brain to focus , especially if he finds the subject boring. The ADHD brain is actually understimulated, meaning it requires more stimulation than the brains of neurotypical students.Moving helps his brain stay focused.. He often has a hard time putting his knowledge into words, but he can express it well in a drawing.
I wish you knew how sensitive my son is. I know that one day he can be a delight to have in class and, the next day, he can be a disruption. The more even keeled you can be with him, the better. When you are frustrated and disappointed with him, he will sense it strongly. He doesn’t want to disappoint you and, when he does, he takes it hard.I wish you knew that his brain cannot filter out everything he sees and hears.. Everything he sees and hears is of equal importance to his brain.
