When Your Child's Brain Works Differently

Picture a typical school morning: backpack forgotten, homework crumpled somewhere in yesterday's jeans, meltdown brewing because the usual breakfast cereal is gone. You've asked three times about the permission slip. Nothing. Sound familiar? You're not alone, and you're not failing as a parent. What you're witnessing isn't defiance or laziness-it's executive functioning in action, or rather, struggling to act. These invisible challenges affect nearly one in three students, yet we've spent decades mislabeling these kids as unmotivated or careless. The truth is far more nuanced and, ultimately, more hopeful. Understanding how your child's brain manages itself-or struggles to-changes everything about how you support them.
