With a positive outlook, this book covers symptoms, diagnosis, treatments, accommodations, advocacy, legal rights, family & school life, and options after high school.

From the Publisher
A review... "Parents and teachers of teenagers frequently lament the lack of a guide for answering myriad questions posed by teenagers' typical challenges of struggle for control and confusion with emerging identity. Add to these challenges difficulty focusing attention, resisting impulses, or remaining still, and you will understand the necessity of a manual for how to live and work with teens with ADD.

This comprehensive book offers all the basic information necessary to understand the condition, get help, and provide appropriate guidance for adolescents with ADD. Chapters include definitions, diagnosis, medical treatment, and legal rights. Discussions regarding family dynamics, advocacy roles, and options for postschool life are insightful. With sensitivity and understanding, the author approaches several essential topics: self-esteem, troubled interpersonal relationships, academic failure, disorganization, substance abuse, and driving problems.

Teenagers with ADD has something for everyone associated with this population. It is alive with quotes and photographs. The final chapter, Words of Wisdom from the Kids, would be excellent reading for teenagers in helping them express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Figures and tables summarize major points and could be used by parents and speakers for presentations to a wide variety of audiences. Sample forms could be duplicated or adapted to meet a range of home and school needs."

5 out of 5 stars There is hope...and a good book!, June 22, 2000

  Reviewer: Lori Clark from Harrodsburg, Kentucky

After reading this book I felt like I could teach on course on ADD! This book answered so many questions that I had regarding my 13 year old son with ADD. It is very easy to read, and written so that you don't have to read the chapters in consecutive order to get something out of it. This book gave me a clearer understanding of what ADD is, HOW it affects teenagers, and WHAT to do about it to make life easier at home and at school. I highly recommend it for any parent who is struggling with a teenager with ADD.
