Emotional Regulation
Parents of children with ADHD are very familiar with the intense
emotional episodes—such as outbursts, meltdowns, and tantrums that
can leave both parent and child feeling drained and sometimes
helpless

Recognizing their emotions brings them closer to learning how to
manage them
