In a Kidspot article about dysregulated ADHD children, Dr Karl Sebire, Non-Executive Director at ADHD Australia, explains the need for systemic change.
When Emma’s* 16-year-old daughter, Lisa*, who is both ADHD and autistic and uses they/them pronouns, spat at a teacher’s aide, it wasn’t the first time the teen’s distress had turned violent.
Lisa was also known to scream at classmates and threaten to kill teachers.
Emma says it’s “…the hardest thing I’ve ever had to deal with in my life.”
