Publisher Description: ADHD and Attention Difficulties is part of the How to Help series of books exploring issues commonly faced by children and young people at home and at school. ADHD and Attention Difficulties offers a complete introduction to this complex and sensitive topic. While there is no one 'best' strategy for managing ADHD, many of the most problematic issues spring from an inability to manage distractions--so young people tend to do best when provided with a consistent, structured environment. Placing at the heart of the work the premise that those who struggle with attention difficulties respond best to people who understand that it is neurological deficits, not unwillingness, that prevent them from behaving and learning like their peers, Fin O'Regan and Sara Cave explore the issues, challenges, and experiences commonly faced by a young person with ADHD--and how parents, carers, teachers, and schools can help. |
