Publisher's Synopsis
Does your child have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder? Learn what you can do to manage their behavior and deal with common ADHD challenges.
This book helps parents see there is much more to childhood ADHD than simply inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. For example, kids with ADHD are actually not "attention deficit?" Truth is, kids with ADHD are actually too attentive, which makes it difficult for them to tune things out and focus on what they are supposed to be doing. This book describes childhood ADHD in 19 easy to understand concepts such as:
-- ADHD kids are unable to be bored.
-- ADHD kids have problems visualizing how long tasks will take.
-- ADHD kids think boring tasks will "take forever."
-- ADHD kids have problems with delayed gratification.
