Hundreds of thousands of parents have relied on this bestselling guide for practical, encouraging, science-based information about attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and its treatment. Distinguished researcher/clinician Russell A. Barkley helps parents make sense of their child's symptoms and work with school and health care professionals to get needed support. By following Dr. Barkley's eight-step behavior management plan specifically designed for 6- to 18-year-olds with ADHD, parents can boost the effectiveness of professional treatment, cultivate their child's strengths, and restore harmony at home. Updated throughout with new research and resources, the third edition includes the latest facts about medications and about what causes (and doesn't cause) ADHD. See also Dr. Barkley's bestselling Taking Charge of Adult ADHD.
"Dr. Barkley is a foremost researcher who has devoted his career to teaching and helping those with ADHD. This book brings together in one place everything that parents need to cope with daily challenges and make important decisions about their child's care. Dr. Barkley's knowledge, brilliance, and dedication shine through on every page like a beacon of hope." - Edward M. Hallowell, MD, coauthor of Driven to Distraction "An excellent and readable book that will empower parents of children with ADHD." - NAMI Advocate "This is not just another book. This is a great book...Although aimed at parents, it has something for everyone involved with ADHD kids: teachers, psychologists, doctors, and family. I am not going to lend this book to parents (although I will show it to them) because they need to buy it so they have it on hand to read and reread." - J. Clyde Ralph, Pediatric News, 2012 "This book features pioneering research that provides new insight into preventing ADHD from becoming a major obstacle in a child's (and parent's) life...Parents will appreciate having this book on hand, and teachers will want a copy to show parents who are ready for a resource." - Intervention in School and Clinic "If any professional knows about ADHD, it is Russell Barkley... All in all, this is a splendid book." - Child and Family Behavior Therapy
