There Is Hope For Your ADHD Neurodivergent Child Who Can’t Focus (& 10 Ways to Stop Homework Battles) #634
2026/09/13 | 22 mins.Do you have a child who would rather argue for 2 hours over homework rather than complete it in 20 minutes?! Those of us with ADHD or neurodivergent brains learn in different ways, but schools usually only teach one way…leaving us feeling inferior and frustrated. That leads to unnecessary stress and fights over homework. I want to share odd, but effective ways to improve focus and executive function using the brain’s natural super powers. And I will share a story I’ve never told so that you know there is hope for your child! Let your kids listen to this episode so they know how THEIR brain works best!

He gives in-depth insight into how to repair your relationship and help your child not feel like “the bad kid.” When your child makes a choice that you strongly disagree with, how can you protect the relationship without pretending to approve of their decision? And we end with one phrase kids need to hear more often. Super insightful episode!

2026/09/06 | 24 mins.You and I have impulsive, emotional kids who are prone to sneaking screens or food at night and experimenting with porn, drinking, vaping, and drugs. They may steal your credit card for an online purchase. Just confronting them will cause them to be more sneaky or lie. But you can’t let them get away with it. I give you a script and step-by-step process for having tough talks to prevent this behavior from happening again. And I share how a rigid, career military Dad bonded with a son he had nothing in common with.
