Children with ADD or ADHD can be a parenting nightmare. They can be disruptive and destructive and do not respond to guidance like other children. Medication may reduce symptoms, but disruptive behaviour often persists. Is there anything that the parent can do?
Parenting the ADD Child brings together for the first time a variety of tried and tested methods in a unique, comprehensive and accessible format that will not be found elsewhere. It goes beyond the identification of the symptoms to tackle the changes parents can make, ensuring that behaviour problems associated with ADD and ADHD are managed and reduced.
David Pentecost is a family therapist and founder of the ADHD development project in BHB NHS Trust in East London. He lectures and advises to parents, teachers, psychiatrists, GPs and other specialists on the emotional and behavioural management of ADD and ADHD in children. He is lecturer and tutor at the Institute of Family Therapy and visiting lecturer at South Bank University, London.
