In this November episode of ADHD Connect, Dr. Tish Taylor dives into a timely and powerful topic: gratitude. While it’s often seen as a feel-good practice, gratitude can actually serve as a practical tool for helping kids with ADHD manage disappointment, regulate emotions, and shift their mindset from “It’s not fair!” to “I’m thankful for…”

Drawing from positive psychology and real-life clinical experience, Dr. Taylor shares why gratitude works, how to introduce it in age-appropriate ways, and simple family strategies—from gratitude jars to dinner table questions—that build resilience and emotional strength. Whether your child is six or sixteen, this episode is full of doable ideas you can start using today.

Because gratitude isn’t just for Thanksgiving—it’s a mindset that helps our kids thrive all year long. This isn’t about toxic positivity or pretending everything’s okay—it’s about finding the good, even when things feel hard
