'What are these mind games these kids are playing on me?' Teens with ADHD experience emotions intensely and get over them quickly. Their parents? Not so much.
So now here are the four of us driving home in silence after a long day – three kids ticked off at me, and me ticked off that they’re ticked off. Once we get home, I retreat to the bedroom to take a few minutes to compose myself, because regardless how “fathered out” I might be, I still have to coordinate every step of the. But before I work up the nerve, there’s a knock at the door. Jayden comes in and asks if I want him to bring me a snack.
“I don’t get it,” I tell Laurie once the kids have gone to bed. “What are these mind games these kids are playing on me? “They’re adolescents and preadolescents,” she says. “They might be mad, but it passes quickly. You’ve got to let this roll off your back.”isn’t doing their teenage hormones any favors. My head reels from their hissy fits, and within the hours it takes me to get over it, they’ve already moved on and probably had at least one more hissy fit.
Case in point, Isaac comes in our bedroom to say good night. “Oh, I have to be at the school by 4pm tomorrow for rehearsal for the play.”“Yes, but some of my friends were going to get there early to run some lines.”Isaac says nothing, but his whole body begins to tense. So I hop out of bed, give him a hug, and tell him, “Good night,” as I gently shove him out of the bedroom. Then I close the door.
