Oxfordshire parents invited to talk on parenting with ADHD

The event, Parenting a Child with ADHD: Why It Feels So Hard and What Actually Helps, will take place on Wednesday, June 17, from 5.30pm to 7pm, and will be led by neuroscientist and peaceful parenting coach Blanka Kellermayer.

It will provide practical advice and insights into the unique challenges faced by families raising children with ADHD.

Witney Library said: “In this practical and supportive talk, neuroscientist and parenting coach Blanka Kellermayer will help parents and carers understand what is really going on beneath their child’s behaviour.”

She will explain why traditional discipline approaches often backfire with ADHD, and what works more effectively instead.

Attendees will learn why behaviour is not just naughtiness, helping you respond with more confidence and less frustration.

The talk will include practical strategies to support emotional regulation, cooperation, and daily routines, so daily battles start to ease and you feel more in control as a parent.

Ms Kellermayer combines scientific research with compassionate parenting methods, drawing from both professional and personal experience as a neuroscientist and a parent of a child with ADHD.
