If emotional outbursts from your ADHD teen leave your home feeling like a war zone, you’re not alone. Emotional regulation is one of the hardest skills for ADHD teens—and one of the most painful for parents to navigate.

But there is a way to prevent many of these meltdowns before they start.

In this week’s video, I teach ABC Parenting—a proactive, science-backed approach that helps you identify what actually triggers your teen’s emotional overload so you can stay ahead of it.
