In our advice column, we address the challenges of parenting, relationships, and life’s complexities. This week, we focus on a pressing concern: how to support a child with ADHD who struggles to make friends.
Dear Parenting Guide,
My 9-year-old son, Jake, has ADHD and faces significant difficulty in forming friendships. His siblings frequently receive invitations to playdates and birthday celebrations, but he remains on the sidelines. At recess, he often plays alone, which truly saddens me. He’s a sweet and wonderful child, but I worry that his ADHD is hindering his ability to connect with peers. I want to ensure he doesn’t feel isolated and that his social skills develop positively. What can I do to help him?
Sincerely, A Concerned Parent
