Improving Your Child's Behavior and Executive Functioning

Описание: Your child can’t stay on task. Your son is impulsive. Your daughter has poor short-term memory. You have a child who has been diagnosed with ADD, ADHD, ODD or any number of the alphabet cocktails that kids are being labeled with today. As a parent, all you want are answers. You just want to know how you can help your child.



Today’s episode explores taking a neurodevelopmental approach to tackling the symptoms that can lead to many of these diagnoses. Dr. Jan Bedell, a neurodevelopmental expert and founder of Little Giant Steps, discusses how we can help most children improve in their information acquisition and storage, which will directly impact their ability to stay on task, keep and follow checklists, improve reading and math skills and more.

One of the key benefits of homeschoooling is the ability to teach your child to think critically. You can truly help your child to move toward critical thinking versus memorizing just to pass a test.
