If someone told me I could be normal or continue to have ADD, I’d take the ADD. With the disorganization, procrastination, inability to focus, and all the other bad things that come with ADHD, there also comes creativity and the ability to take risks” - David Neeleman, JetBlue Airways Founder
WHAT THEY SAY
It’s a neurological ‘disorder’
WE BELIEVE YOUR CHILD WAS BORN EXCEPTIONAL RATHER THAN IMPAIRED, AND HERE’S WHY
Children with ADHD are NOT necessarily born with a neurological deficiency
No one checks that at birth
An alternative scenario is that the child is born with a heightened sensitivity to the physical senses, the emotions and the potential of life.
The trauma of being so sensitive, particularly in a society with so many stimuli, may be what causes the brain to look different to those of ‘neurotypical’ people.
This additional sensitivity comes with an array of exceptional gifts and talents.
YOUR CHILD ISN’T DAMAGED
This means your child’s brain isn’t necessarily impaired for life.
Once heightened sensitivities are managed, the trauma decreases, the brain moves out of fight and flight mode, and stops freezing.
IS THERE A CURE?
There is no ‘cure’, your child will always be more sensitive than ‘normal’.
However, when:
- sensitivities are managed
- the family is healthy and nurturing
- your child is encouraged to live in peaceful surroundings
- the focus moves from disorder to your child’s strengths
the brain will become far more ‘neurotypical’.
IS THERE A FRAMEWORK TO HELP ME UNDERSTAND?
