Alex highlights how ADHD symptoms, such as impulsivity and inattention, stem from an impaired prefrontal cortex, which also affects emotion regulation. The conversation emphasizes that even if a child doesn't meet the criteria for ADHD, they may still struggle with similar emotional challenges, making effective interventions crucial for all children facing these difficulties. Both Alex and the other speaker agree that addressing core struggles like low frustration tolerance can benefit deeply feeling kids, regardless of a formal diagnosis.In this clip
