Anger, frustration, happiness, sadness, excitement, and joy are just a few of the many emotions we all experience. Children often struggle to control their emotions but typically with time they develop skills to self-regulate. If your child has ADHD, they may experience more frequent mood swings and have difficulty with emotional regulation. Here’s a little science behind this. The prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that is responsible for executive functioning (attention, behavior, emotion, judgement), can regulate the limbic system which is the part of the brain responsible for controlling emotions.
