Let’s get practical. Because a lot of people hear “renew your mind” But nobody really explains HOW. So what happens? You wake up… And the SAME thoughts come back. The same frustration. The same triggers. The same mindset. And now you’re trying to parent… from a mind that was never reset. So let’s break this down simple. 🔥 1. Catch the thought You cannot change what you don’t notice. When your child does something and your mind says: “I’m overwhelmed” “I can’t do this” “they’re too much” STOP. Catch it. 🔥 2. Check the thought Ask yourself: “Is this helping me lead right now?”Because just because you FEEL it…doesn’t mean you should FOLLOW it. 🔥 3. Replace the thought You don’t just remove it… you replace it. Instead of “I can’t do this” You say “God gave me this child, so I CAN do this.” Instead of “They’re too much” You say “I just need a better system.” Instead of “I’m overwhelmed” You say “I need a reset, not a breakdown.” 🔥 4. Move differently Because real change is not just thinking…it’s ACTION. You don’t just say “I’m going to be patient.” You lower your tone You shorten your words If you don’t control your thoughts…your thoughts will control your home. Because how you THINK…is how you respond. And how you respond… is how your home is built. So no… this isn’t about being perfect.This is about being intentional with your thoughts, your words and your actions Because your children don’t just need correction… they need a parent who is mentally disciplined. Let’s talk: What is ONE thought you struggle with daily as a parent?

Whether your child has a diagnosis or not…your assignment does not change. It doesn’t matter if they don’t listen talk back hit scream ignore you or seem like they’re all over the place You still have one job. The Word says in Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way they should go…” It doesn’t say: “Train them if it’s easy.”“Train them if they listen the first time.”“Train them only if they don’t have challenges.” No. It says: TRAIN THEM. That means: You hold the line. You stay consistent. You don’t back down because it’s hard. You don’t give up because they’re different.... Because we don’t get to choose the assignment… But we are responsible for how we show up in it. ADHD is not an excuse to remove structure. It is a reason to be more intentional with it. So before we even talk strategies this week… We have to settle this in our mind “I am still called to train my child.” 🔥 Let’s get practical: Tell me ONE thing you’re doing at home right now that isn’t working. Just one. And I’ll help you figure out why. Give me a few hours to respond... it’s just me over here 😂 But I got you.

Father God, Even with the diagnosis… You still gave me authority. Your Word says in Book of Genesis that we are to have dominion…So I will not shrink back in my home. I will not become passive. I will not give up my position as a parent. I will hold the line. Your Word says in 2 Timothy 1:7 that You did not give me a spirit of fear… but of power, love, and a sound mind. So I reject fear. I reject confusion. I reject feeling overwhelmed. And I step into power, love, and clarity as I lead my child. Your Word says in Proverbs 22:6 to train up a child in the way they should go… So I will train them. Not just react. Not just survive the day. But train them with intention, consistency, and wisdom. Lord, give me patience when I feel triggered. Give me wisdom when I don’t know what to do. Give me consistency when I feel tired. And remind me… This child is not a mistake. They are an assignment. And You trusted me with them for a reason. So today I declare: I will lead my home. I will parent with authority. And I will not back down from what You called me to do. In Jesus’ name, Amen. If this prayer is for you today, comment: “I will hold the line.”

Let me help you understand.... Because once you understand this…everything starts to make more sense. Your child is not ignoring you…Their brain just moves faster than your instruction. You say: “Go put your shoes on.” In your mind, that’s simple. But in their mind? It sounds like: • shoes • where are my shoes • I forgot where I put them • oh look my toy • now I’m playing • wait what did mom say? And now you’re frustrated like: “Why are you not listening?!” But it’s not always disobedience......It’s distraction Another example: You say: “Stop doing that.” Your child hears you… but their body doesn’t slow down fast enough to match it. So you think: “They don’t care.” But really.....their brain is still catching up to the command. Or this one… You correct them. And 10 minutes later they do the SAME thing again. You think: “They didn’t learn anything.” But the truth is their brain struggles with holding on to the correction long enough to apply it next time. This is why: • repeating yourself feels constant • they seem like they “don’t listen” • they forget instructions quickly • they move from one thing to another fast BUT let’s be clear: This does NOT mean we remove structure. This does NOT mean we stop correcting. It means we parent with: shorter instructions...more repetition...more consistency... more structure around them Because your child doesn’t need more yelling more frustration more long talks They need clarity + structure that matches how their brain works And this is the gap. You’ve been parenting expecting them to process like you… But they don’t. So let me ask you: What is something your child does that used to frustrate you… but now makes a little more sense?

Do you ever just look at your child like…🤨 “…did I create this?” “Did I do this??”“I must be the problem at this point…” 😭 No? …just me? 😂 But for real though… sometimes our kids will do something and you’re like: “Where did you even get that from??” And then God be like… 👀YOUUUUUU Let’s talk 😂 What’s something your child does that makes you question EVERYTHING?
