That struggle is far too real!! Both of my kids have ADHD and arent meditated because of the side effects that come with them. Theyre both really great kids, but sometimes I feel like banging my head against a wall. Ive found that seeing a counselor for impulse control has worked well, along with a few extra things weve found over the years. My daughter (14 yrs) has a notebook with her EVERYWHERE she goes and can be found doodling in it even during class. Of course it always starts as a thing, but that's when she gets the upper hand by proving shes paying attention still. They let it go after that. My son 10 yrs) has been a little harder. For him its kinda boiled down to rewarding good behavior versus punishment for bad behavior. I put them both in MMA too. Its given them an outlet for all that energy and theyre worked HARD after a particularly bad, long and stressful day! Turns out theyre actually really good at it too.
