How ADHD Shows Up In Kids and Impacts Youth Athletes (with Dr. Joey Case; Sports Psychologist)
Q: When do we pursue getting our kids a diagnosis or consider medication for ADHD?
If we're seeing impairment in multiple areas like struggling in school, social interactions, and extracurricular activities, it's worth having a conversation about ADHD. If they're only struggling in one area, like school, but performing well in athletics, they may just not be motivated for school, which doesn't mean they have a disorder.
The Most Grounded Conversation I’ve Had About Youth Sports (with D1 Head Coach Ritchie McKay)
Q: How would you counsel a parent who is struggling to figure out how to support their kids' dreams and goals of playing their sport while also maintaining their faith?
Partner with your spouse, model a Christian walk for your kids, and find friends who share your faith to support you in this journey.
The Most Grounded Conversation I’ve Had About Youth Sports (with D1 Head Coach Ritchie McKay)
Q: Can you explain to the parents listening why the process and helping kids learn to love that process is so much more important than just focusing on the result?
Focusing solely on outcomes can lead to a loss of joy in playing sports, and we shouldn't associate our identity with performance; developing resilience through experience is crucial.
