			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the 10 Most Popular Articles of the Month of May at <a title="ADDitudeMag" href="http://www.additudemag.com/index.html" target="_blank">Additude</a> is about the difficulties you&#8217;re faced with being the parent of an ADHD child.  Our children are funny, smart, amazing, uninhibited, loving and loved.  They are also exhausting!  My neighbor has a 4-year old that is very much like my youngest son.  On the go all the time, gets very upset if I interupt whatever he was actually focused on at the time.  After a very trying day she asked me, &#8220;How do you do it?&#8221;.  The validation felt good&#8230;but, &#8220;You just do.  You watch them and wish you could bottle all of that energy.&#8221;</p>
<p>We love our children &amp; don&#8217;t want to change who they are as an individual&#8230;its part of what makes them so special.  A little quiet time is nice, though.</p>
<p>Please read <a title="Reasons You're A Great Mom" href="http://www.additudemag.com/adhd/article/5710.html" target="_blank">Reasons Your A Great Mom</a>.  It&#8217;s not just for moms but for anyone in a parenting roll in an ADDer&#8217;s life.  In the comments section, it&#8217;s mentioned that the best part is when your child thanks you for helping them.  Getting a &#8216;Thank you&#8217; doesn&#8217;t always happen when your child is young.  My oldest recently reached adulthood and told me that he&#8217;d been thinking about it and that he wanted to thank me for all that I&#8217;d done to help him be himself &#8212; ADHD and all.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t received a thank you from your child yet&#8230;it&#8217;ll come.  I just wanted to say thank you, the world will be an even more amazing, wonderful place when our children are grown because of all you&#8217;ve done to cherish and help your child to be themselves!  It&#8217;s exhausting, but also a joy!</p>
