We’re in such a tricky stage with my almost 6 year old who also has an ADHD diagnosis. He is pretty verbal, social and lovely! But he is extremely impulsive with very little sense of danger - eloping, throwing items, emotional regulation, etc etc.
I know 90% of his behavior is attention seeking, 10% sensory seeking. He is the oldest of 3, we have a 6 month old baby and my husband works full time. I’m doing my best to give him as much as attention as possible and teach him appropriate ways to gain attention, praise him when he does so. He’s in ABA, we’re currently working on starting OT again, waitlists are ridiculous. Has anyone had a child with this type of behavior who’s grown out of it as a teenager and/or adult? We literally can’t take our eyes off of him for he could hurt himself, his siblings or others. He’s such a gift, but it is exhausting. Praying this is part of toddlerhood/childhood.
