    I have a son with ADHD. Recently he has become like another child. Angry, frustrated, sad, embarrassed. When I saw those signs I immediately started looking for help. As things progressed with him, I was getting no where as far as how to help him and was running on fumes trying to figure out what to do for myself and him. I’m a big reader and just happened to come across this book and boy am I happy I did. This book saved my relationship with my son. It has helped me know what to ask for with his school and how to speak to him about his ADHD, along with tons of advice and guidance. It’s still a long road ahead but this time I have a “roadmap” to how my sons brain works and how and why he does certain things etc. I’m gonna tell you- it isn’t easy. But when you stick to everything and just make some slight changes so your child can understand and not be afraid or embarrassed of his disorder… and that makes me happy. I recommend this book to any parent with a child who has ADHD. It has literally saved my relationship with my son but more importantly- my son is back to smiling and being himself again. I don’t know what I would have done without the help of this book.

    Great read to better understand folks that have ADHD. It helps put you in their shoes and see what they see, process how they process things.

    My son has been diagnosed for almost a decade. We knew very early he had ADHD. I'm a nurse and coordinated a multidisciplinary care approach. I thought I understood ADHD. After this book I realized just how much I didn't know. It was a game changer. I will be asking every adult in his life to read this. When I finish my nurse practitioner degree this year I will recommend it to patients without hesitation.
