Two things that are exhausting: fight or flight mode and survival mode.
One thing kids and teens need to recover: rest.
Give them the space to heal. Pushing them to “catch up” will only send them right back into survival mode.

My nephew, a college student, is playing with his local orchestra. I'm insanely proud of him and also - LIVE music, being played together, with masks, for all, and it's happening! I'm crying.

@TiltParenting Thank you for this. Very timely. Plus I always appreciate articles that point out that ADHD is not the *lack* of attention but rather paying attention to many things.
@ParentinPlace@DebbieReber@DrGrantjr I love this series and I get so much good advice but need the tweaks and mods for my teen with ADHD. I'm wondering if there's a similar series for parents of kids with ADHD? Any favorite books, authors, podcasts? Already sub'd to Tilt Parenting :) TY!
@anahomayoun@jilltucker My daughter’s words “scared, hopeless, betrayed”. She’s written off this year and is now worried she won’t be in person in the fall. So am I.
