Confident Parents, Capable Kids:
The Parent Training That Stops Arguing, Defiance, and Daily Battles

Does this sound like your home?

• Your child regularly gets into arguments where nothing gets resolved
• Your child is cooperative everywhere else, but not at home
• They try to avoid anything that isn't interesting to them
• Has a hard time hearing no, won't let things go
• Becomes destructive or physically aggressive toward family when they don't get their way
• Inflexible, says "no" to anything new or unfamiliar
• Treats family poorly, then acts as if nothing happened
• Makes threats or statements to elicit guilt or worry when upset

These aren't character flaws. They're common patterns in homes where ADHD-specific strategies aren't in place.

Why ADHD Dude Parent Behavior Training (And Not Therapy)

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends Parent Behavior Training as the first-line treatment for kids with ADHD. Talk therapy, play therapy, and occupational therapy are not included in the AAP ADHD treatment recommendations.

Evidence-informed Parent Behavior Training teaches you, the parent, the skills and structure your child needs to be successful at home and beyond.

ADHD Dude is built entirely around this approach and was created by Ryan Wexelblatt, LCSW. He's a licensed clinical social worker, former school social worker, and dad to a son with ADHD who once had aggressive and oppositional behavior. Ryan has worked with thousands of families and presents regularly at the International Conference on ADHD.

When you change how you respond to your child, they begin to recognize how capable they truly are.

The Confident Parent, Capable Kids method is not about asking your child to change anything; rather, you learn strategies to respond differently to their behavior, create the "scaffolding" they need at home to be successful, and build new skills. Change how you respond, and a calmer, more cooperative home becomes possible, with a child who grows more capable and independent over time.
