If your child won’t cooperate, remind them that the time-out can't start until they're quiet and in their time-out spot.</li><li>Stay calm. If you tell them to go to time-out and they ignore you, add a minute to the time-out. If they refuse again, add another minute. If they ignore you a third time, don't pick them up and carry them to time-out. Attention, even negative attention, may reinforce the <a href="https://www.webmd.com/parenting/are-there-benefits-of-behavior-charts-children" id="cfe4e18a-7a88-44f4-ab71-221ec10c2c68;medical_reference">behavior</a>. Instead, give them a consequence that's meaningful to them, such as no video games for the rest of the day. Enforce this calmly, and don't talk about it further. </li><li>Practice time-outs. Ask your child to pretend that they misbehaved, and that they're being sent to time-out. They can practice going without putting up a fight.</li><li><span>Make sure you're reinforcing good behaviors so they understand the difference. For example, if you put your child in time-out for hitting their sister, you should have been praising them earlier for playing well with their sister. And you should praise them after time-out for having a good attitude.</span></li></ul></section></div><div class="article-page " data-page="6"><section><h2 class="jumplink-headers" id="091e9c5e80008073-6-20">Living With Childhood ADHD</h2><p><strong>Childhood ADHD costs</strong></p><p><span>If your child has been diagnosed with ADHD, you'll likely have costs such as:</span></p><ul><li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"><span>Visits to doctors and </span><a href="https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/doctors-treat-illness" id="f9697643-acb1-41fd-99d1-c915b1fa3c79;medical_reference">mental health specialists</a></li><li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"><span>Medications</span></li><li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"><span>Coaching</span></li><li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"><span>Tutoring</span></li><li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"><span>Expenses due to accidents or injuries</span></li></ul><p><span>According to one study, parents with private insurance can expect extra health care expenses of $2,857-$3,922 a year for a child with ADHD, depending on the child's age.
