Learning in a Distracted World: Family Learning Foundation Course
For parents who are ready to stop reacting and start leading with a plan
$27 through October 31. Whatever you pay is yours for good.
You've rebuilt the homework routine more times than you can count. And a quiet part of you is starting to wonder if you're the problem.
You're not. You just haven't been handed a plan built for how your child's brain actually works. This is that plan, in short pieces you can fit into a real day.
It's 7:40 on a school night. The worksheet should have taken ten minutes. It's been forty-five. Somebody is in tears, and some nights it's you.
You've tried the chart. The timer. The sticker system. Maybe the tutor, the evaluation, the program someone swore by. Each one helped for a week or two, and then it didn't. You are not new to this.
And somewhere along the way you started carrying a question you don't say out loud: Is it me?
It isn't. Your child's brain works differently, and most of what gets handed to parents was built for a brain that doesn't. When nobody gives you a plan, you run on fear, because fear is what's left. That's not a parenting failure. That's what happens to anyone doing this without a map.
FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE DESK
I'm Kelly Sutherland. I've been teaching for over 25 years, and I'm still in a classroom every day. At nearly every parent conference, a parent leans in and asks some version of the same question: "But what do I do at home?"
I have about ten minutes to answer a question that deserves a whole plan. So I built the plan.
I also know this from the other side of the desk. I have ADHD myself. My bonus son has dyslexia, and I watched him find his way through.

FOUR QUESTIONS PARENTS ASK ME. FOUR COURSES THAT ANSWER THEM.
Start with whichever question keeps you up at night. Everything connects.
"What is actually going on with my child?"
Decoding Your Struggling Reader:
The Reading Clarity Starter Kit
See the ADHD profile, the dyslexia profile, and what happens when both show up at once. Walk away knowing which lens fits your child and what to ask at your next school meeting.
"How do I stop running on fear and start running on a plan?"
Destination Success Boot Camp:
The core of everything. Five parts: Reflect, Reset, Rebuild, Relaunch, and your next step.
You'll build your co-regulation plan, your Dream Builder answers, your Family Learning Blueprint, and a Family Learning Board your child can actually see. Includes the 30-Session Family Reading Challenge teaching.
"How do I make it stick when the week goes sideways?"
Routines Starter Kit:
Three short lessons on why routines quietly die around week six, and how to build one that survives. You'll write a Normal Day, Hard Day, and Recovery Day version so one bad morning doesn't undo everything.
"Who is holding all of this together?"

The Head Coach Foundations
You are. The Head Coach is the one person who sees the whole picture: school, home, tutor, doctor. This course gives you that role, plus scripts and a triggers chart for the big reactions to small mistakes that come with rejection sensitivity.
WHAT YOU'LL HAVE WHEN YOU'RE DONE
☑️ A clear picture of your child's profile: ADHD, dyslexia, or both
☑️ Specific questions to bring to school meetings
☑️ A co-regulation plan for the moment your child hits the Task Initiation Wall
☑️ Your Dream Builder answers and your Family Learning Blueprint
☑️ A visible Family Learning Board, built and placed in your home
☑️ A routine with Normal Day, Hard Day, and Recovery Day versions
☑️ Connection Before Correction scripts and an RSD triggers chart
☑️ The 30-Session Family Reading Challenge teaching
HOW IT WORKS
☑️ Short video pieces sessions
☑️ A workbook page for each piece, digital and printable versions
☑️ Action Labs where you build the actual tools, step by step
☑️ Self-paced. Do a piece while your coffee is hot, or a whole section on a Saturday
☑️ Yours to keep and come back to all year
☑️ It grows. New lessons and tools are added, and you get them at no extra cost
IS THIS FOR YOU?
This is for you if:
You're tired of parenting from fear and want a plan you built for your family
Your child has ADHD, dyslexia, both, or you're not sure yet
You need to learn in small pieces, on your own schedule
You're ready to be your child's Head Coach, not their homework enforcer
This isn't for you if:
You want ongoing live coaching with me.
That's the Family Learning Adventures Membership, and this course is the foundation for it. You can add it later.
You're looking for a quick fix.
This is a plan you build and keep adjusting as your child grows.
PRICE
$27 through October 31. On November 1, the price goes to $47.
Whatever you pay today stays your price for good, including everything I add later.
As more lessons and tools go in, the price will keep going up. Yours won't.
QUESTIONS PARENTS ASK BEFORE THEY START
My child has ADHD but not dyslexia (or the other way around). Is this still for me?
Yes. Decoding has separate sections for each profile and one for when both are present. Go straight to the one that fits. The Boot Camp and Routines work for either.
We don't have a diagnosis yet. Should I wait?
No. The Decoding course starts with "Not Sure Yet?" and helps you see what you're looking at and what to ask for. You don't need a label to start building a plan.
I'm already stretched thin. Do I really have time for this?
Most pieces are a few minutes long, with one small action for the week. It's built for a parent who is already doing everything, not for someone with a free afternoon.
Is this the membership?
No. This is a one-time purchase you keep. The membership is the ongoing home with live coaching and community, for when you want support as the year goes on.
Can I buy just one of the courses?
Not anymore. Everything now lives here, so you get the whole picture for less than the pieces used to cost separately.
What if it's not the right fit?
Email support@learninginadistractedworld.com within 7 days of purchase.
If you've gone through less than 20% of the course, you'll get a full refund.
