SHINING WITH ADHD

#190: Supporting Executive Function: What to Expect at Every Stage

The Childhood Collective

3/26/2025

SUMMARY

Today, we’re diving into executive function skills, how they typically develop, and ideas to support at each stage. It’s critical to understand that kids with ADHD are likely developing executive function skills more slowly than their peers. As parents, when we understand what is developmentally appropriate for our kids, we can set realistic expectations and support their growth!

MEET OUR TEAM

We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you. After working with families over a combined total of 40 years, we saw a need to provide ongoing support and education to parents raising children with ADHD.
