SHINING WITH ADHD  #201: Why Change can be Hard for Kids with ADHD (and What Helps) The Childhood Collective 9/3/2025 SUMMARY Change can be tough for many kids, but for children with ADHD, it can feel especially overwhelming. From big shifts like moving to a new school to small changes like switching restaurants at the last minute, these moments often spark resistance and stress (and BIG emotions!).
