You & Your ADD Child: Practical Strategies For Coping With Everyday Problems

Every year, one in twenty Australian children is diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). ADD can explain why a child is over-active, bored, lazy, constantly demanding, argumentative, unmotivated, disorganised, without friends and experiencing learning difficulties. But does this diagnosis mean that your child is doomed to a lifetime of failure 'NO!' says child psychologist Ian Wallace. In this new book he introduces troubled parents to a variety of practical strategies, designed specifically for ADD, that can help them and their children manage everyday problems. Ian even tackles the difficult problems of low self-esteem, poor social skills, defiance, school issues, aggression and sibling rivalry.

I used this book for my 12 year old son 18 years ago (and for the following years). Now I am using the same book to help my grandson and his mum. Fabulous insights by a doctor who suffers from ADD himself.

Very useful.
