Demystifying Executive Functioning: Helping Struggling Students To Shine

Did you know that more than 1 in 10 students struggle with Executive Function?

• Since many adults don’t understand how EF impacts these complex kids, they often don’t get the help they need.

• When trying to help, well-intentioned adults can unknowingly make things worse, and students become even more resistant to receiving the help they desperately need.

• Many of these kids start to feel shame, as if there is something wrong with them. Long term mental health problems often arise as kids internalize shame.

• When they don’t develop the necessary skills they need to launch a successful future (aka “Failure to Launch” kids), they can struggle for decades.
