SUMMARY
Parenting expectation: The teeth are brushed, the jammies are on, and the white noise is humming softly. You spend a few soft moments with your child, give them a kiss, and tell them goodnight. The little cherubs stay in bed all night, and the entire family wakes up rested. Parenting reality: When bedtime hits, your kid has never been thirstier, and they HAVE to get water. The door must be cracked at the exact right spot. They need you to adjust the bed because something is itchy. You’ll get them settled, and 30 minutes later, they will have built a full-on marble run instead of staying in their bed. Bedtime struggles can be a universal experience, but they are particularly prevalent among children with ADHD. In this episode, we share one simple yet effective strategy that provides children with both security and boundaries, empowering them to settle into sleep independently.
