I think we have heard it all before…from someone. You lose everything. You’re always late! Listen and pay attention!
Who says this? Our well meaning parents, our teachers, family members, church teachers, etc. Do they mean to cause harm? No, most don’t! And they don’t know how this makes a child feel either, to grow up hearing these things constantly. Even if you grew up in a great loving christian home like I did, these words might carry over to your adult life. You might start to believe them because you heard them so many times.
Then you have kids… and you wonder how you can be a good parent, since you “lose everything. “Will I lose my child?” you may ask yourself. You wonder how you can be a good parent, because “you’re always late!” “Will I always be late to pick my kid up because I couldn’t find my keys…again?” You wonder how you can be a good parent since you can’t seem to “listen and pay attention?” Hey, this one may end up being a positive. If you don’t remember what time something is, get there way earlier than you think! Hey, at least, you won’t be late!
2. Provide moms with the best and most up do date natural and practical solutions for supporting and managing theirs and their children’s ADHD
There are so many ways we can help support ours and our children’s ADHD- that don’t involve medication! And, even if you do choose to medicate your child, you can also use some other natural methods as well. Just talk to your child’s doctor first, to make sure nothing interferes with their medication.
3. I want to empower moms with the tools, resources, and encouragement to homeschool their children
Homeschooling can be hard. Add in a child with ADHD, and oh yeah, if you the parent has it too…. then it’s not a walk in the park sometimes. Its more like Jurassic Park most days.
However, you are still the best teacher for your child! Even if don’t believe that some days (ok, I’m talking to myself here too), or you haven’t even started homeschooling yet, homeschooling can be a beautiful experience! You may question if you’re patient enough, or how to get your kid to listen to you and focus, or if you are teaching them enough. I am here to help you get through it, with some tears and laughter along the way!
4. I want to write weekly blog posts to encourage you, support you, teach and empower you, and share with you what I am learning or using for me and my daughter.
We are in this journey together! We aren’t meant to do life alone, especially when we have ADD or ADHD, or our children do. It really helps when you have a community of other moms that get you!
5. I want to help ADHD moms and moms with ADHD children declutter and simplify their home!
I’m still far from a minimalist, but I strive to be. I have learned so much the past 2 years on how much physical clutter and “stuff” can affect people, but especially people with ADHD.
Clutter affects everybody, so just imagine how it can affect people who are already prone to procrastination, inattention, and the general feeling of always being overwhelmed and behind!
Sometimes we can’t even start because we already think we will fail, or we procrastinate which got us here in the first place! Ok, lets just face it, we don’t want to made decisions, because we are afraid we will make the “wrong decisions.” So because we don’t want to make decisions, then we don’t decide what to do with our excess stuff, and it ends up out of control!
Does this sound familiar? I’m just typing what’s in my brain, so if this makes sense to you, then you are my people! And I want to help you get out of this hurdle, and back into the drivers seat in your life!
Mama’s, I’m here cheering all of you on! You can do this. We can do this together! Let’s do this! Comment below with a struggle you or your child has and I will write an article on that. Thank you!
