Publisher's Summary

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common mental health condition in children and is present in most countries around the world. Although there is an abundance of literature on ADHD with plenty of scientific information, this condition remains controversial and often underdiagnosed.

Many guides have been made for parents about ADHD, but most of them are quite scientific. They can be difficult to navigate, especially if you are a parent with some symptoms of ADHD yourself.

This audiobook is a go-to guide for parents and teachers, providing up-to-date knowledge in a simple, easy-to-listen-to format. It is filled with information your doctor would like to provide but is often unable to do so in the limited appointment times available. This audiobook also gives a framework and practical tips for how you can manage and advocate for your child in different settings, with or without medication. It summarizes evidence to date for medication and alternative therapies, examines commonly held beliefs about ADHD, and debunks myths.

This audiobook has been narrated by a developmental pediatrician (Desiree Silva) and an ADHD coach (Michele Toner), both of whom are passionate about improving the lives of children with ADHD and their families. They both have more than 20 years of experience in the field and recognize the need for this practical guide.

Allied health workers, general practitioners, and others who have contact with these wonderful children will also benefit from the information in this guide.

A great help

This book has given me a great and much better insight on how to deal with children that have ADHD. MY PARTNER’s son has ADHD and I have struggled I’ve r the past few years to understand. I wish now I had found this book much earlier in our relationship as it can be a bit strained at times. I have picked some great tips on how to approach this with my partner and her son. As building up a relationship with him important to me

Great content but no supporting attachment

Very informative content and gives an overall view of ADHD.

Unfortunately there is no supporting documentation attached to the book.

It is hard to understand the tables and would be best to get attachments we can refer to.

The chapters in Audiobook do not match the chapters in the book which might be confusing.
