Attention Deficit Disorder is a most distressing condition for parents to deal with – especially if they don’t fully understand what is going on.
As we all know, if we have ever had an ADHD student in the class, those who suffer from the condition find it hard to concentrate, are often hyperactive, and generally find it difficult to relate to other teenagers. They can be disruptive and need constant support and help from their parents.
And yet ADD is a condition that is often hard to diagnose. Parents ask teachers, is my child simply lively and difficult, or is there a genuine medical condition at work?
To try and help some of the parents I have met over the years I have helped work on a resource that can be given out to parents, and which covers all aspects of ADD and ADHD – what it is, how it can be recognised, how children come to have ADD.
The materials have a positive message, including support and suggestions on how to help and support a child with ADD. It also includes a range of information about support groups and other ways in which the parents of ADD teenagers can be helped.
ADD: The Parents Support Book is a volume which you can copy and give to parents of ADD children. It will rapidly improve their lives and become a major stepping stone on the road to recovery from the difficulties that living with an ADD teenager can produce.
I do hope you find it of interest.
