Of course I’m not saying to ignore where we need extra supports and accommodations. Every member of my family has ADHD behavior.
But what I’m thinking about that I personally believe, is that environments need to be assessed as often as individuals, to determine whether the people who inhabit these environments are thriving or stressed out.
And that new environments need to be created for those people who aren’t thriving or functioning well in their current environments.
That way kids and adults aren’t forced to comply through behavior mod, they instead have the option to access environments that are more of a match for who they naturally are.
Yes, much easier said than done.
