Danny and Rebecca talk with Dr. Tamara Rosier, founder of the ADHD Center of West Michigan and author of You, Me, and Our ADHD Family, about navigating ADHD as a family. Dr. Rosier describes ADHD parenting as a “goat rodeo” and shares practical strategies like her “monkeys” naming technique for separating people from their symptoms. She also explores emotional regulation, family communication, distinguishing defiance from ADHD, self-medicating behaviors, and creating preplanned toolkits for managing big emotions.
