Did I cause my child’s ADHD? If you’ve ever asked yourself this question, you’re not alone. In this episode of Chaos & Caffeine, we’re busting myths and diving into the science of where ADHD really comes from—spoiler: it’s NOT because of sugar, screen time, or bad parenting. We’ll break down the role of genetics, brain structure, and environmental factors, plus why asking where it came from isn’t nearly as important as what we can do to support our neurodivergent kids. Stick around for practical ADHD parenting tips, our product of the week (Smart but Scattered and the Timed Timer), and an empowering affirmation to keep you going. (2025)
