Listen "2.13 - ADHD: Attention vs Intention"
Episode Synopsis
Attention vs Intention
Welcome back to When the Wind Blows...an Epic podcast for parents, teachers, leaders, and anyone vested in the world of education. I am Erin Barnes, host of the show...and today’s co-hosts are
Who are you and what is your role at Epic
You and I were hiding behind a desk this summer during the lunch hour and we were talking about our kids. I shared that my daughters were struggling and then you opened up about your kids. You made me cry.
Attention - notice taken of someone or something; the regarding of someone or something as interesting or important.
Intention - a determination to act in a certain way
3. You shared with me a Youtube video. It was a lecture from Dr. Russel Barclay and was 3 hours long and took me two weeks to finish. I’m questioning my own attention now. What were some of your most poignant takeaways from this video?
4. Your problem isn’t about knowing what to do… it’s doing what you know. These kids can be so bright. It’s about performance, not skill.
5. Meds. When Tate was in 4th grade….Ms Monica...We are at Epic now. Are there or were there unintended consequences or rewards for this diagnosis for your family?
6. The problem is a diminished capacity in executive functioning...spectrum slight to severe. Not an excuse for diminished accountability - I have seen way too many parents go the opposite way of accountability.
Tune in next week where we are rethinking how leadership and education can better prepare the next generation for a rapidly evolving world
