A Good Book for Learning

Customer Rating:

I purchased this book in order to help my daughter out who had just been diagnosed with having AD/HD. She is only 4 but yes she has it. The book AD/HD Parenting Handbook: Practical Advise for Parents is a good book. It has a lot of different ways to help out your child who had AD/HD. It gives you little pointers and also has a little checklist for you to help you through the rough times. I have found that with this book it gives you tips like instead of spanking your child that has the impulsive kind of AD/HD to put them into Timeout. This method has worked well for my daughter and I find that if I even mention the word TimeOut she gets quiet and behaves for me. Also we have set up a rewards system for her and that is great for us. She has her certain duties she needs to do daily and then she will get a smiley face for her good deeds. At the end of the week she will have a reward that she has earned. I highly recommend this book to those out there who just doesn't understand why their child acts the way they do when they have AD/HD. It also helps you out by giving you little tips and different things to try with your child and gives you homework too. It's a book that I will have for years to come.

for every parent with an ADD ADHD child!

Customer Rating:

Every parent needs a handbook when it comes to raising an ADD ADHD child. that may seem silly to some, but we ADDers have a very unique way of thinking and acting. Having gone through a difficult childhood with undiagnosed ADD, I can only wish this book had been available to my parents when I was growing up. This is a true handbook with first person, parents accounts! ~~ I am the author of: One Boy's Struggle: A Memoir: Surviving Life with Undiagnosed ADD Bryan

Help was needed	Customer Rating:
All the information I wanted and needed to know about ADHD is in here. I especially appreciate reading the quotes from other parents going thru what we're going thru and also appreciate the extra titles of other books based on a specific subjects pertaining to ADHD. This book has been extremely helpful.

it is what it is...practical advice

Customer Rating:

i too felt as if my daughter was described perfectly in this book. i have begun to implement a lot of the suggestions in the book and keeping notes on what works and what doesn't. this is the first book that i add to my library on the adhd subject and it was a great buy! it's very easy to read...read it during a 4 hour wait in the dentist's office! there are sections in the book that don't pertain to my daughter yet but i know i'll find useful advice as she grows older. i welcome any suggestions on other useful books that i should read and add to my library. thanks!

A GREAT BOOK FOR PROBLEM SOLVING	Customer Rating:
This book is really great for those looking for solutions to everyday problems. We bought this book because we were tired of all the "medical stuff". We wanted a book written by parent of children that actually have it. i suggest every parent have this book and apply some if not all the principles in there.....it has saved us alot of times
