helpful book!

i found this book to be so helpful in dealing with my 8 year old daughter who has been loosely diagnosed with ADD.

This book is a life saver

This book has a lot of practical tips and ideas for working with the challenge of ADD/ADHD children of which I have two. There is a section that helps you work with teachers and other people in your childs life. I shared a lot of the information in this book with my children's teachers and even suggested to their principal that he have the teachers read the book as I thought it would give them more insight into how to reach these children. I recommend this book to anyone who has or deals with ADD/ADHD children.

Easy to read & just as easy to implement

This is the easy how to/step-by-step book that I have seen. We all love are children but dread making waves in already rough seas. Within days my house was a nicer place to be. I took notes as I read the book and used the notes as guidelines when I implemented a technique. I am purchasing this book for my cousin's son. I would recommend it to anyone working with ADD/ADHD children.
