In this episode, Ryan and Mike take on one of the most hotly debated topics in the ADHD parenting space: do kids with ADHD actually need consequences? Social media influencers say no — just connection, co-regulation, and emotional validation. Ryan and Mike push back hard with decades of research showing the opposite: ADHD is a disorder of performance, not knowledge, meaning behavior is governed by immediate consequences far more than by understanding or insight, and kids with ADHD need more consequences, not fewer — clearer, more consistent, and delivered in the moment. They also dismantle popular labels being used to justify removing consequences altogether — masking, rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), pathological demand avoidance (PDA), and vague "nervous system disorder" language — and explain why these frameworks, however emotionally compelling, leave parents stuck without real strategies. The takeaway: authoritative parenting, warmth plus structure, is what the evidence supports, and parents can step into that authority with confidence.Find Mike @ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.grownowadhd.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find Ryan @ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.adhddude.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠{{chapters}}[00:00:00] Start[00:00:39] Research vs. Social Media Parenting Myths[00:02:41] ADHD as a Disorder of Performance, Not Knowledge[00:04:21] Connection Is Not the Problem[00:07:39] Why Parents Are Over-Connecting and Over-Functioning[00:08:48] Authoritative Parenting: Warmth Plus Structure[00:11:08] Feelings Talk vs. Behavior Change[00:13:53] Why Therapy Alone Doesn't Work for ADHD[00:15:10] Masking, RSD, PDA, and Nervous System Labels Debunked[00:19:03] Real Reasons Kids Act Out at Home[00:20:31] Help vs. a Hug: What Parents Actually Need[00:21:09] Act Don't Yak: What Keeps Parents Stuck[00:23:41] The Bottom Line on Consequences and Praise[00:25:05] School Accountability and the Principal StrategyResearch Citations:Wolraich, M.

Gen Z activist Manu Meel, co-founder and CEO of BridgeUSA, a student-led nonprofit that trains young people to hold civil, moderated discussions across political divides, joins Chris Cuomo to explain how his generation is fighting political polarization by turning outrage into conversation. Meel says young Americans—raised on algorithms and anger—are ready for something new, building more than 100 college chapters devoted to structured dialogue and civic engagement. Cuomo challenges whether bridge-building can survive in a social-media world that rewards rage, while Meel argues that exhaustion with constant conflict is creating an opening for empathy and debate to go viral.

“People don't actually follow outrage; what they follow is what is unique and different.” Host Julie Rose talks with Manu Meel, co-founder and CEO of BridgeUSA, about how a new generation of college students is challenging the outrage economy, especially in the wake of the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. Meel explains that while conflict and violence often dominate headlines, the real counterculture movement is people hungry for respectful dialogue and pluralism. He argues that listening itself has become a radical act, one that could reshape democracy by empowering the “silent majority” to push back against polarization.

In deze 74e aflevering van 024/7 praat Joris van Meel met Heidi over haar bijzonder omslachtige route om schrijfster te worden.

En over de dood van haar moeder, die de basis vormde voor haar nieuwe boek 'Dat wij wij zelf' (dat je trouwens hiero koopt: https://libris.nl/a/heidi-koren/dat-zijn-wij-zelf/501613357).

Nothing brings me greater joy than when a deep exploration into the artistry of a favorite singer yields even more delights than I could have possibly imagined. And when I have a personal friendship with that singer, my cup truly runneth over. A week ago the music world once again celebrated the birthday of the treasurable soprano Roberta Alexander. Today, in a belated birthday tribute, I offer recordings of Roberta singing the music of composers of The Netherlands, where she has made her adoptive home since the mid-1970s. As befits Roberta Alexander's eclecticism, the range of musical styles is wide, ranging from the baroque oratorio Joseph, by Willem de Fesch, to the romanticism of early 20th-century composers Hendrik Andriessen, Alphons Diepenbrock, and Julius Röntgen, to the more astringent (yet still lush and colorful) idiom of Robert Heppener and Willem Frederik Bon. Prepare yourself to be swept away by these magnificent works in brilliant performances recorded between 1979 and 2000 in which Roberta Alexander is joined by fellow singers Claron McFadden and Nico van der Meel, and accompanied by Bernard Haitink, Rudolf Jansen, David Porcelijn, Ed Spanjaard, and Jed Wentz. If you are thinking of passing this episode by because of the obscure repertoire, I encourage you to take a chance, not only because these recordings present Alexander in all her glory, but because you will get to hear fascinating music by composers you might not have heard before, ranging from a dramatic Baroque seduction scene between Joseph and Potiphar's wife, to an erotically-charged setting of Verlaine, to exquisite settings of meditative texts for the Lenten season. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Was unterscheidet Dialekte am meisten: die Wortformen, die Grammatik, die Betonung? Es ist eindeutig die Lautung der Wörter. Um diese drehen sich die heutigen Mundartfragen. Warum sagt man schweizerdeutsch Staubsuuger und nicht Stuubsauger? Wo sagt man Määl, wo Meel? Kann man statt gwüsst auch gwüsse sagen? Und wie entstehen Formen wie gfinde und gmerke? Fragen nach der Lautung sind eher untypisch bei Dini-Mundart-Schnabelweid. Die meisten Hörerinnen und Hörer interessieren sich für Worte und Wendungen. Entscheidend fürs Erkennen von Mundarten sind aber Lautvarianten bei der Aussprache. Zu erkennen sind diese auch bei der jeweils regionalen Art hochdeutsch zu sprechen. Christian Schmutz ist bei Dani Fohrler im SRF1-Studio und beantwortet live Hörerfragen zum Thema. Im zweiten Teil erklärt Idiotikon-Redaktor Martin Graf den Familiennamen Scherz.

Manu Meel is helping college kids talk to each other — inside and outside of classes, individually and in groups, in person and online — about all kinds of important issues where there is a lot of disagreement. He is also as positive and bright as any guest we've ever had. Special thanks to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations for their generous support of this series.

What is driving the recent conflict on college campuses? One obvious factor is reaction to the Israel-Hamas War.But my guest this week isn't sure it's quite that simple. As CEO of the non-profit, BridgeUSA, 25 year-old Manu Meel is in constant contact with students on more than 70 campuses across the country.The organization helps facilitate conversations among college and high school students with idealogical differences.In the days and weeks following the October 7th massacre of Israelis by Hamas, Bridge USA heard plenty from its student members.“There was a lot of pain, there was a lot of confusion as to what to do on campus,” says Manu. “And then as the news cycle started going and as what I call the elite Twitter crowd went to play, and as people started to essentially lose sight of what had happened and focus on what's the broader implication, what's my tribe going to say and how do I make the most of this moment — I think then you saw that trickle down into campuses. “Tribal Politics on Campus Political protest on campus is nothing new. But America's tribal politics have reached a fever pitch, finding a fertile home where the freedom to explore and express, typically a welcome right of passage, is now emblazoned with an asterisk.*Speak your mind at the risk of being demonized by “the other”.*Explore divergent points of view at the risk of angering your tribe.*Express your opinion at the risk of being cancelled, or worse..Glimmer of HopeIt's no surprise that the tension on college campuses is a microcosm of the tension in America.But there is a glimmer of hope, Manu assures us, and it's on these very college campuses.It's just that we don't often hear about it in the media.You'll hear about it now as Manu helps unpack the nuances of this complex topic.This remarkable young leader kicks off the 6th year of Our Voices Matter, sharing thoughtful insight on the generation tasked with leading us into the future.One that will hopefully remind us how to have civil, constructive conversations with those who look and think differently than we do.A future where we celebrate and embrace our common humanity rather than blind allegiance to our tribes.www.ourvoicesmatterpodcast.comwww.lorellemedia.comThis podcast is devoted to empowering us all to better understand each other's differences...one story at a time.  Emmy Award-winning journalist, Linda Lorelle, guides guests through insightful, unexpected conversations that reveal our common humanity.  This show is not about politics per se; it is about finding a way to reclaim civility in the context of the contentious times in which we live, by sharing our personal and professional stories, in hopes that others might find a glimpse of themselves.Support the show

Manu discusses how the youth led nonprofit BridgeUSA is bringing people together to discuss political views in a safe way to promote democracy with empathy and understanding.

Affective polarization in America – the gap between voters' positive feelings about their own political party or "side" and negative feelings toward the opposing party – has sharply increased during the past two decades.We speak with two leaders in local government and a nationwide students group about effective ways to bridge divides. Erica Manuel is CEO and Executive Director at the Institute for Local Government in Roseville, California. She has over 20 years of experience helping public, private and nonprofit organizations implement innovative policies to provide strong leadership, advance climate resilience, support economic development, engage communities, and drive positive change.Manu Meel is CEO of BridgeUSA, a student-led nonprofit organization that creates spaces at colleges and high schools for open discussion among students about political issues. BridgeUSA began in 2016 at the universities of Notre Dame, CU-Boulder and UC Berkeley in response to growing polarization on campus. Erica and Manu were interviewed by our co-host Richard Davies at the 2023 Braver Angels Convention in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Both of them played leading roles at the cross-partisan gathering of Democrats, Republicans and independent citizens. Braver Angels is part of the growing movement of bridging organizations, who are finding new ways to push back against rigid and dehumanizing political divides. Many young people on college campuses are "just scared to say what's on their minds, and walking on eggshells," Manu tells us. He blames "the loudest voices" for silencing open discussion. "This is not a problem of the majority," he says. "It is a problem of the loudest voices imposing their closed-mindedness on an exhausted majority."Both Erica and Manu insist they're hopeful that the crisis of polarization can be successfully overcome. "I'm hopeful because not a single person I've talked to has said why on earth would you do that? Why on earth would you talk to someone on the other side? Why on earth would you want to treat someone like a human being with dignity?" Erica tells Richard.Recommendation: Jim recommends Commentary Magazine, a monthly publication of conservative "non-Trumpy" opinion.

On this episode of Cylinder Radio, I speak with Manu Meel, the CEO of  BridgeUSA, a youth-led non-profit organization that creates spaces on college and high school campuses for open-minded and non-judgemental conversations on political issues.  I think it's a really important challenge to take on and BridgeUSA is doing an awesome job at tackling it so I wanted to have him on the podcast to learn more and share his work with my platform. During our conversation, we talk about how BridgeUSA started, why Manu felt called to insert himself into the culture wars and why he thinks he was able to “resist” the temptation of going after material success and external rewards over meaning.  We also discuss how to get young people to break out of their thought bubbles and if echo chambers are part of human nature or not. Lastly, we talk about what makes people actually take action to change something within our society and what you can do to start your own BridgeUSA chapter if you are at a high school or college in the US.   — LEARN MORE ABOUT MANU AND BRIDGEUSA —  Manu's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/manumeel_/  BridgeUSA: https://www.bridgeusa.org/  Start Your Own Chapter: https://www.bridgeusa.org/start-a-chapter/  Bridge USA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BridgeUSA1  BridgeUSA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bridgeusa_/    — LISTEN TO CYLINDER RADIO — Podcast: https://cylinderradio.libsyn.com/  Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cylinder-radio/id1448662116  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3ACgZ7hMoBuuC1cmc9oLoP    — CHECK OUT MY FREEBIES — Debate To Dialogue: https://www.williamreusch.com/debatetodialogue The Social Solution: https://www.williamreusch.com/socialsolution Free Critical Thinking Curriculum: https://www.williamreusch.com/criticalthinking   — SUPPORT MY WORK — My Website: https://www.williamreusch.com Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/willreusch Instagram: https://instagram.com/willreusch

It is infinitely clear that more young people are getting involved in politics. According to Tufts University, three times as many 18- to 24-year-olds donated to a political campaign or registered others to vote in 2020 than in 2018. It is also equally clear that as political debate in the United States has intensified, classroom debates have also become increasingly heated. How have recent elections and increased interest affected political discourse among younger demographics? Why do some students get involved, while others are not civically engaged? And how does political dialogue in schools fit into the broader conversation around democracy?       In this episode, Kevin discusses civic engagement among the next generation of leaders with the CEO of BridgeUSA, Manu Meel.  

Manu Meel is the CEO of Bridge USA, a nationwide movement on college campuses that aims to promote open discussion between students about political issues. Bridge is currently located on over 50 college campuses and 24 high school campuses in the U.S., with some 3,000 students engaged last semester. Today, we discuss political division, Manu's story, and what it's like trying to get students to talk about difficult issues together.
