I thought my son had an anger problem. Then I learned how much emotional dysregulation can be part of ADHD. A 2026 brain-imaging study of 123 kids ages 5–9 found differences in brain connectivity in children with ADHD and severe emotional outbursts. 🔹 It’s not automatically defiance. 🔹 It’s not automatically a discipline problem. 🔹 It’s not simply “more ADHD.” When my son was 6, he pulled his mattress off his bed, threw things, and slammed his door so hard we removed it from the frame. The door is back. The handle still isn’t. If you’ve lived this too, what does ADHD rage look like in your house? Save this. Send it to another ADHD parent.
