Has your
child been diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder)? Do you suspect that he may have it? Are you confused
as to what is the best way to help him? Is Ritalin harmful? Are
there other more natural ways of dealing with ADHD? Does everyone
you meet give you different advice?
If
this is the case - welcome to the club! As a therapist working
with parents and their children, including those diagnosed with
ADHD, I have seen many parents at the point of tearing their
hair out in despair. All parents want to do their best for their
children, but this can be difficult when even the professionals
seem to give conflicting advice! Hopefully we will help
to dispel some of the confusion surrounding ADHD and assist parents
in making informed choices about treatment and management
of children who have been diagnosed with ADHD.
