her child. I encouraged her to establish routines and structure at home,
creating consistent daily schedules for meals, homework, and bedtime. Using
positive reinforcement, such as praising her child's efforts and
accomplishments, was suggested to help boost the child's motivation and
self-esteem. It was important for the mother to set clear expectations and
boundaries, communicating them effectively and enforcing them consistently.
Breaking tasks into smaller steps was recommended to make them more
manageable for her child, while regular physical activity could help manage
ADHD symptoms. Collaboration with the child's school was emphasized, and I
advised the mother to work closely with teachers to develop strategies for
managing ADHD symptoms in the classroom. Additionally, I stressed the
importance of self-care for the mother, encouraging her to prioritize activities
she enjoyed and seek support from friends, family, or support groups when
needed. Therapy or support groups were suggested to provide valuable
guidance and community for both the mother and her child. Finally, I
reminded the mother to be patient and flexible, as managing ADHD was a
journey that might have required adjustments along the way.
