Traditional methods of discipline for children with ADHD seem to be running thin, meaning that there are certainly ways to discipline a child with ADHD that are simply more effective than others. A parent needs to remain calm and collected, even when upset when disciplining a child with ADHD. Modeling this calmer behavior has shown more significant benefits than simply yelling. For children with ADHD, it is very much advised to affirm positive actions, and rewards, while ignoring less impactful/mild misbehavior, but using a time-out system to effectively establish discipline. While placing a child in timeout, it is important to be clear about the details that lead to the discipline, the length, and the continued use of positive reinforcement.
