Organize Your ADD/ ADHD Child: A Practical Guide for Parents

Living with AD/HD can be hectic, and parents of children with this disorder can be driven to distraction when even the simplest of tasks causes havoc. This book addresses the issues of organization and time management in relation to AD/HD, suggesting practical ways of organizing your child's day to day life that turn chaos into calm. Accommodating short attention spans and short fuses, the author shows how, by using the F.I.R.S.T method (Fun, Individualism, Rules, Simplicity and Time management), even the most hyperactive and easily distracted of children can be taught to make their bed, pack their school bag, and generally get organized! Cheryl Carter recognizes that children hate anything that is boring, and finds a fun way around even the most mundane of tasks. Her no-nonsense, step-by-step strategies, in combination with positive affirmations and realistic demands, will get AD/HD children organized, and from A to B without a hitch. This book is a must-have for any flagging parent struggling to structure their child's life (and indeed their own). It will also be of interest to family members, teachers, and anybody else close to a child with AD/HD.
