5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Help for Parents of ADD Kids, September 18, 2001

By	R. I. Hay - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: You and Your A.D.D. Child: How to Understand and Help Kids With Attention Deficit Disorder (Paperback)

This was the best book on ADD my wife and I have read. It not only explained ADD in understandable terms, it also provided us with practical ways to help our child succeed at school, at church, and in society. We appreciated the examples given because they enabled us to explain our situation to others in ways that help others (family and friends) to understand that ADD is not a curse and that an ADD child is not damaged goods. This is a must-read for anyone related in any way to someone with ADD.

5.0 out of 5 stars practical and easy to read, January 9, 2007

By	Mother of ADD child (Leo, In USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: You and Your A.D.D. Child: How to Understand and Help Kids With Attention Deficit Disorder (Paperback)

After reading this book I feel more prepared to face the day to day challenges living with a child with ADD. This book offered practical ideas and easy to understand information about Attention Deficit Disorder. I have already utilized many of the ideas mentioned in the book. My only concern with this book was the publishing date. This book was published in the 90's. I am aware that a lot of new research has been done since this book was published so the chapter about medication is dated.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best yet!, September 21, 2005

By	Denice H. (GA, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: You and Your A.D.D. Child: How to Understand and Help Kids With Attention Deficit Disorder (Paperback)

I've read many, many books (most recommended by my pediatrician) on this subject for my 2 sons who are affected. This is, by far, the best, most insightful book I've read yet on ADHD! I actually called and recommended THIS BOOK to my pediatrician!

If you have a child, or student, affected by ADHD, this is a MUST READ! It will change your perspective and help you gain the patience with that child that you thought was long gone.

I would also recommend Celebrate! ADHD by Kirk & Anita Martin.
