How can I help my child with ADHD understand his sensitivity to others?

You can help your child understand his sensitivity to others by describing it to him as "emotional contagion." Like a cold or a flu, other people's emotions can be caught, and your child is especially susceptible to catching them. This doesn't mean he's disabled or disordered -- it simply allows him to understand others in a different and deeper way.

The steps to transforming this sensitivity into a gift are the following: (1) help your child become aware of the emotion he feels; (2) help him figure out whose emotions he is picking up; and (3) help him communicate his sensitivity to the person. There are also some strategies for helping your child protect himself from being too sensitive.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
