"A true number three is often sensitive and creative, laughing on the outside but crying on the inside." "Children with ADHD often represent a 'double birth order,' where their traits are heightened and require unique attention." "Blended families introduce new dynamics; any child who gets demoted in birth order will often struggle to adapt." "Sibling rivalry plays a critical role in determining a child’s true birth order and personality traits." "Firstborns are natural leaders who thrive on responsibility, while second-borns often excel socially or athletically to differentiate themselves." "Treating all your children the same is a mistake—each child is unique and requires individualized support." "Parents must understand their own birth order and how it interacts with their children's dynamics." "Understanding double birth orders can unlock hidden patterns in family behavior and relationships." "Birth order isn’t just theory—it’s visible in family photo albums, high school reunions, and even at Thanksgiving dinner tables."

    146: The Benefits of Omegas for ADHD with Dana Kay
    Feb 13 2025
    In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, Dana Kay, a Board-Certified Holistic Health and Nutrition Practitioner, explores the benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids for children with ADHD. Dana discusses the common Omega-3 deficiency in Western diets, the role these essential fatty acids play in brain health, and how they can reduce inflammation and support ADHD symptom management. Drawing on research and practical advice, Dana shares how to balance Omega-3 and Omega-6 intake, the best dietary sources for these nutrients, and how to choose high-quality Omega-3 supplements. She emphasizes the importance of combining supplementation with dietary changes and other natural strategies for optimal results. Don’t miss the downloadable cheat sheet listed below for a quick reference on incorporating Omega-3s into your child's routine.

"The ideal ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 fatty acids is 1:1, but the Western diet often skews heavily toward Omega-6s." "Kids who took fish oil supplements for three months showed improved behavior, reading, and spelling." "Omega-3s support brain function, mood regulation, memory, focus, and even reduce inflammation." "You can’t supplement your way out of a poor diet riddled with inflammation." "Replacing processed and packaged goods with fresh, whole foods can significantly reduce inflammation." "Not all supplements are created equal—choose brands with transparent ingredient lists and high-quality standards." "Omega-3 supplementation is not a miracle cure, but it’s a powerful tool when paired with natural strategies and dietary changes." "A proper fatty acid ratio can boost focus, mood, memory, and organizational skills—everything children with ADHD need to thrive."

    145: Managing Screen Time and ADHD: Expert Tips from Ashley Gobeil
    Feb 6 2025
    In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, Dana Kay dives into the pressing issue of screen time and its effects on children, especially those with ADHD. Joined by therapist Ashley Gobeil, who has over 15 years of experience in child and adolescent mental health, the discussion unpacks how technology impacts emotional regulation, impulsivity, and overall well-being. Ashley provides valuable insights into the neuroscience behind screen time’s effects on ADHD brains, as well as practical strategies for parents to manage it. From setting boundaries to navigating meltdowns and fostering healthier habits, this episode equips parents with actionable tools to create a balanced approach to technology in their homes. Link Mentioned in the Show: Healthy Habits for Digital Kids: Managing ADHD and Screen Time - FREE PRINTABLE - https://info.adhdthriveinstitute.com/free-guide-managing-adhd-and-screen-timeADHD Thrive Jumpstart 4 Parenting Program - http://adhdthriveinstitute.com/parenting Key Takeaways: [3:14] The Impacts of Screen Time on ADHD Symptoms [11:21] How Screen Time Affects Emotional Regulation and Dopamine Loops [11:47] Social and Cognitive Effects of Excessive Screen Time [12:04] Strategies for Managing Screen Time Effectively [16:08] Setting Boundaries Around Screen Time [20:21] Tips for Navigating Screen Time Detox and Alternatives [36:35] Practical Scripts and Tools for Parents Memorable Moments: "Screen time can act as a temporary escape for kids, but it doesn't increase their internal regulation." "For children with ADHD, screen time often becomes a way of seeking dopamine, creating a reward loop that’s hard to break." “Screen time doesn’t just overstimulate—it can actually decrease a child’s ability to control impulses." "Excessive screen use inhibits imagination, natural play, and the development of critical emotional processing skills." "We’re not here to eliminate screens completely but to find a healthy balance that supports emotional and mental well-being." "Screen time is designed to leave children wanting more—it’s a bucket with a hole that can never be filled." "Setting boundaries is hard but essential. It’s okay for kids to feel big emotions when limits are set—it’s part of learning." "Boredom isn’t a bad thing—it’s an opportunity for kids to build creativity, imagination, and self-regulation." "Start small, stay consistent, and be proactive about setting screen time rules—it will pay off in the long run." "Healthy screen habits are a team effort. Explain your decisions to your kids, and adjust based on what works for your family."
