Elaine Taylor-Klaus and Diane Dempster are the co-founders of ImpactParents.com, a coaching network for parents of children with ADHD, Anxiety, and more.

They are also the co-hosts of the podcast Parenting With Impact, and co-authors of several books on parenting complex kids.

Listen to this insightful Whinypaluza episode with Elaine Taylor-Klaus & Diane Dempster about tools to help parent complex kids with ADHD, Anxiety, and more, and how these techniques are useful for all families, regardless of neurodiversity.

Here is what to expect on this week’s show:

The change you want for your kids starts with you, as the parent.
How the coach approach builds a framework to help families NOW and teach kids to take ownership and be problem-solvers.
The Impact Model for achieving change
Key Strategies for Parenting and Partnering- what does this toolbox look like?
Transferring Ownership & Control to your kid is done one step at a time.
Shifting perspective: Is it naughty or neurological?
Reasonable expectations: Raise the bar from where they are.
Understanding and using motivation for your child.
Creating the tone of the home- it starts with YOU.
Removing “should” from your vocabulary- reduce pressure and start with where you are
Solutions are in the successes: look for what is working, rather than what is not.
Commit to calm: gain comfort in having confidence that you can handle whatever comes at you.
Focus on putting things into practice and giving them time to implement before moving on to the “next thing.”
