Superparenting for ADD – Hallowell and Jensen

Book review

More excellent guidance from the author of “Delivered from Distraction”

Leading ADHD author Edward Hallowell teams with Dr Jensens to produce a constructive and uplifting guide in “Superparenting for ADD: an Innovative Approach to Raising Your Distracted Child”. It offers parents effective strategies to assist them in the day-to-day challenges of raising their ADHD child and help him to reach his fullest potential.

Superparenting shows you how to discover and enhance the wonderful and surprising gifts of ADHD and to turn what is so often labelled lifelong disability, into lifelong strengths. On a mission to change the paradigm of ADHD treatment, this book is a must-read for parents, scientists and physicians that completely debunks the purely deficit-based model of understanding ADHD.

Hallowell and Jensen show that love triumphs over all else by taking us inside the minds of ADHD children and showing how the world looks from their perspective, to look anew at ADHD children and to see the gifts that are too often hidden in clouds of frustration and heartache. This will assist parents in the day-to-day challenges of raising their ADHD child and help him/her to reach his/her fullest potential. A must read.
