More from Is It Just Us?
Parenting teenage boys can feel like navigating a whole new world. From alcohol and drugs to peer pressure, friendships and growing independence, how do we keep our boys safe without pushing them away? This week on Is It Just Us?, we're talking about the challenges of raising teenage boys, the conversations we need to be having (even when they're very uncomfortable!) and why connection and communication matter more than ever. Are we talking enough, listening enough, and giving our boys the tools they need to navigate the teenage years? Maybe how we are approaching it needs to change?
This week we are talking all about lying! From primary lies, secondary lies and tertiary lies to pro-social lies and white lies- there is so much to discuss! And we will help you to see why your child lying is a good thing!! How to respond to ensure you are supporting development and open communication and we have lots of laughs remembering the lies we told back in the day too!
This week we’re joined by Jordan Casey, CEO of MindPath, for an open and honest conversation about MindPaths online ADHD assessments for children and teenagers. We get into the nitty-gritty of online ADHD assessment, how they actually work, how children are assessed safely online, what parents can expect and the questions you might have before considering one for your child. Jordan also opens up about his o the story behind MindPath, making this a really insightful conversation about ADHD, access to support and why he believes things need to be done differently.
