"I found the workshop very good. I'm about half through the book and finding it very practical. Ruth my wife said that she liked the summaries which provided a quick review and reminder. We are not new to this, currently having 4 ADHD (foster) children and 2 with autism (and an adopted child with cerebral palsy). We've had the older children for over 15 years and have had ADHD children previously. We have not recognised some of the things as ADHD issues such as being temperature sensitive. We have also been encouraged to be less negative, and more positive with reduced stress. It is early days yet but we are looking forward to good results. I have got on the email list and we are awaiting the new book, web topics, and on-line support. Thank you again for the very practical workshop and book." Miles "I am in the process of reading your book and out of all the ADHD literature I have read it makes the most sense to me. Thank you" "Kerry I was so glade to hear that you are conducting a Workshop in our area. I can't wait, everything seemed like a lost cause until recently when our doctor told us about you and your book, it really helped me and my son!! Thank you "....even if you do not have an ADHD child the techniques in the book will be beneficial to you as a lot of them could be applied to a plain old difficult child...." "....even if you do not have an ADHD child the techniques in the book will be beneficial to you as a lot of them could be applied to a plain old difficult child...." "....I think that your book is informative, easy to read ...and... is in no way patronising....." "I believe it will change the lives of many parents...." A young, single mum with one child who describes herself as literate but a 'non-reader'. As an early childhood educator I have struggled with many strategies to limit destructive behaviour and to nurture the desire to be creative and inventive in the ADHD child. Within this book I have found a simple and positive method of behaviour management that is easy to implement and maintain. As a result I feel confident that when caring for the ADHD child in the future I will be armed with the best possible tools and strategies to ensure that I am providing a constructive learning environment for these very special children. I hope that many other carers can benefit from this book so that we can better assist parents in caring for ADHD children and in helping them to grow and develop. Early Childhood Educator |
