ADHD and Children
One of the best books around on teens. Very comprehensive and practical. The focus is on how ADHD affects teens and can impact family dynamics. The emphasis is on helping increase both parent and teen awareness and understanding of ADHD and the positive role medication can play. But that medication alone is not the answer.
Step-mom to ADHD teen
This book has been very insightful to this step-mom, who recently had my 15 year old ADHD stepson move into my home. I have been very frustrated, but now understand alot more about this disorder thanks to Colleen Alexander-Roberts and her book. We still have many more challenges ahead, but I feel this book has gotten me off to a great start in handling the behaviors.
Must read for parents of teenagers with ADHD
This is a really helpful book that is also quick and easy to read. There were many great ideas that we were able to put into place pretty quickly; it also gave me some different perspectives that I hadn't considered but now keep in mind when talking with my teen. Since reading this book, we have had a lot less battles in our home which is really saying something if you live with a teenager who also has ADHD!
The BEST of Information I've found in one book!!!!!!
The author tells us what we need to know as parents and how to guide the educational system. THIS SHOULD BE REQUIRED READING FOR EDUCATORS!!!!!
