The A.D.D. Book: New Understandings, New Approaches to Parenting Your Child
by William Sears and Lynda Thompson
Living with children who learn differently is a challenge--but help has arrived! Sears and Thompson share loving guidance techniques that parents can use to help their child achieve success socially, at home, and at school. The authors present breastfeeding and attachment parenting as ways to help a child be "Smart from the Start." The book offers strategies for improving behavior and treatment options, including a discussion of medications and nutrition. One chapter covers special education laws and another is devoted to helping the family celebrate the uniqueness of the A.D.D. child.
