Synopsis

While many people have Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD), it remains a controversial and misunderstood problem. Early diagnosis and treatment are important due to its chronic and disruptive nature. A child with AD/HD affects the family, classroom and society in general. It contributes to learning difficulties, underachievement, risk of anti-social behaviour and significant parent-child conflict. However, there is a lack of awareness and skills among parents and professionals. Grounded in solid experience, this book is a user-friendly guide for parents and others coping with AD/HD.
