This
is an ongoing thing within my home. I have a 9 and 10 year old that are
ADHD and a 6 year old that is ADHD/ODD. The biggest problem I've seen
is the lack of knowledge within the school system for these children.
People
are uneducated on how this really works...
This workbook focus' on the diary method. You can make copies of
appropriate pages and have your child{ren} fill them out. This helps
them to determine their feelings and how they are coping with things.
This also allows parents to see progress and frustrations and be able
to speak freely about them with their children. You can also tell what
methods are working.
This book contains age appropriate diary pages, with a variety of
options in each age ranking... There
is also a feelings rating log if needed. You can pick and choose with
your child what areas you want to focus on. Then, when those are
complete, go back to others...
There are encouraging phrases every page or so as well as several
success stories included in the back of the book.
Is this all the information you need as an ADHD parent? No. But this is
a great helper and if used in a *wanting to know way* this can open
many door to you being able to further help your child.

"AD/HD
Success! is a wonderful workbook that we at Neve Ruchama Academy,
Jerusalem Israel are very excited to use in our upcoming pilot
study.
This
pilot program address students and parents on issues with AD/HD. This
book will help to train our teachers how to spot symptoms of AD/HD as
well at large.
We
will be using the workbook's diary pages for our students and the
parent evaluation for our parents, to help them become more accountable
with taking responsibility in raising their sons and daughters in the
most effective way possible. Our teachers, mental health
professionals, and coaches will be working on this pilot this
year! Due to the workbook, we have decided to call the
conference: 'ADHD in the light of positive psychology'".

"I
bought your ADHD
book and...I enjoyed reading through it. The format is simple to use
and looks like it will be effective for certain students. I liked the
effort on the part of the child to complete the Diary Pages."
