Teaching and Modeling Empathy for our Kids with ADHD

Empathy: The Key to Connection

As Brené Brown beautifully expresses, empathy is “listening, holding space, without judgment, emotionally connecting, and communicating that incredible healing message of ‘You’re not alone.’”

Empathy is essential for building social connections, and in the words of Dr. Ned Hallowell, connection is the “new Vitamin C.” For parents of children with ADHD, empathy is crucial for fostering heart-centered connections.
