You Are Not Alone: A Comprehensive Parent Approach to Helping Your Child with ADHD Thrive
Does every day with your child feel like a struggle? Have you tried everything and nothing works? You are not alone!
Diagnoses of ADHD are skyrocketing. What looks like misbehaving, defiance, or lack of focus could actually be ADHD. Parents are often unequipped with the information needed to understand what is happening to their child and how to manage the situation.
Your child is bright, capable, insightful and enthusiastic. Let's help you and your child live the quality of life you both deserve.
This book compiles information from over 12 years of education, experience, and clinical work. This information includes the most effective techniques, strategies, and words of encouragement for parents, their children with ADHD or executive functioning dysregulation, and the children’s teachers. I hope you find it beneficial, as well.
Am I alone in feeling this way? Are my kids the only ones who are this bad? Should I feel bad for regretting having kids in the first place? Will this ever get any better? Should parenting be this hard? I named this book “You Are Not Alone” because I hear these questions a lot from the parents I meet with, the audiences I present to, and my friends who have children. I have even felt this way myself. The good news is that you are not alone. You are not the only one feeling this way. Other people’s kids act up, too. You will have a range of feelings about having kids. Yes, it will get better and then worse again and then better. You are setting a foundation as a parent. You are molding this tiny being into a healthy, adaptive, functional adult. That takes work! The growing pains are ridiculous from every angle. This book is relevant in helping you know, understand, and remember that you are not alone.
