Informative

This is a really good book to give to friends or relatives that don't understand your ADD child.

It was nice to see that you can survive

This book gave an account of life living with a child who has been diagnosed with ADHD. It did tend to put things in perspective making me feel that I was not alone! Describing my child exactly. I would describe it as quite light hearted and witty and read it in less than an hour. It did not really give parenting advice or ideas on how to improve your child's situation. There are a lot of alternative remedies and approaches that are not mentioned.

I love this book!

It's so nice to find a readable, helpful, humorous book that puts ADD in perspective. No jargon, no behavioral modification plans, but just plain good sense.
