In the same way, without strong executive functioning, a person may find it difficult to organise their behaviour and thinking. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a1f7a50652b2d7ffa858d/eae7d9c4-aad5-4a76-9037-e1008f414951/Lobes_of_the_brain_NL.svg.png Under the Emerald Bridge - What is Executive Functioning (a Parent-Friendly Guide) - “I wanna be in “The lobe” where it happens” The part of the brain responsible for all this magic falls squarely on the frontal lobe (the blue part of this image). otherwise known as the “sticky-out” part at the front of your brain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a1f7a50652b2d7ffa858d/1776423462069-JJF5KSYQ05RHUDIJS9PS/unsplash-image-lUYibzci_aU.jpg Under the Emerald Bridge - What is Executive Functioning (a Parent-Friendly Guide) - See the light through the trees!

Penelope by birth name, she also goes by the lovable moniker PAT.

Although that’s not to say the odd joke/punchline hasn’t flown over her head more than a few times. Look out for Penelope on publications from Emerald Bridges CPAS as she helps to brighten up tips, tricks and advice from Under the Emerald Bridge. If you do see her, give her a like!
