    Spelling Struggles With an ADHD Child

    I didn’t realize spelling struggles were common for kids with ADHD until my son was older. Looking back, I wish I had known sooner — it would have saved us both frustration. He’s still a great student despite the challenge. If your child struggles with spelling, be patient. They’ll be just fine! What strategies have worked for you?

    Our Son’s Challenges With Hyperfixation

    Hyperfixation, common in those with ADHD, is an intense, prolonged focus on a specific activity or interest. While it can lead to amazing productivity and energy, it also causes challenges like ignoring personal needs, not listening, or delaying tasks. For our son, video games are a common area of hyperfixation, affecting his focus on daily responsibilities.

    My Son Has Inattentive ADHD

    My son has Inattentive ADHD, a less obvious subtype that often goes unnoticed because it lacks hyperactivity. Our journey began when teachers noticed his struggles with following directions. Through diagnosis, medication, and daily challenges, we've learned so much. I’m sharing our experiences to help others navigating ADHD — because no one should feel alone in this journey.
