Expert Answers

Top 10 Parenting Questions

Answered by SkillTime Behavioral Specialists

"Why is my child having so many tantrums?"

Tantrums are often a child's way of communicating overwhelming emotions they can't yet express with words.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Teach emotional vocabulary and create predictable routines that reduce stress triggers.

"How can I help my child focus better?"

Focus difficulties often stem from environmental factors, not willpower. Kids with ADHD need external structure.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Break tasks into smaller steps, use visual timers, and create distraction-free zones.

"Is it normal for my child to not listen?"

What looks like 'not listening' is often processing delays, attention challenges, or unclear expectations.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Get eye contact first, use fewer words, and give one instruction at a time.

"How do I know if it's ADHD or something else?"

ADHD shares symptoms with anxiety, sleep issues, and trauma. Professional assessment is key.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Document patterns and seek evaluation from a specialist who understands neurodevelopmental differences.

"How do I get the school to take me seriously?"

Schools respond to documentation and specific requests, not general concerns.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Keep detailed behavior logs, request formal meetings in writing, and know your child's legal rights.

"Why does my child behave at school but not at home?"

Home is the safe space where kids release the stress of 'holding it together' all day.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Build in decompression time after school and don't take the meltdowns personally.

"What do I do when nothing works?"

If typical strategies fail, the behavior is trying to tell you something deeper needs addressing.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Look beneath the surface — often unmet sensory, emotional, or connection needs are driving behavior.

"Is my child manipulating me?"

Children lack the cognitive development for true manipulation. They're meeting needs the only way they know how.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Shift from 'what's wrong with you' to 'what happened to you' — approach behavior with curiosity.

"Will my child grow out of this?"

Some challenges improve with age, but skills need to be actively taught, not just waited out.

  • SkillTime Solution

    Early intervention and consistent skill-building create lasting positive change.
