Finally, expert ADHD advice that doesn't treat kids like a problem to be solved—and instead speaks to what they need to truly thrive in school and life.

A veteran psychologist presents a proven roadmap to help ADHD kids succeed in school and life.

You've read all the expert advice, but despite countless efforts to help your child cope better and stay on track, you're still struggling with everyday issues like homework, chores, getting to soccer practice on time, and simply getting along without pushback and power struggles.

What if you could work with your child, motivating and engaging them in the process, to create positive change once and for all? In this insightful and practical book, veteran psychologist Sharon Saline shares the words and inner struggles of children and teens living with ADHD—and a blueprint for achieving lasting success by working together.

Based on more than 25 years of experience counselling young people and their families, Dr. Saline's advice and real-world examples reveal how parents can shift the dynamic and truly help kids succeed. Topics include:

  • Setting mutual goals that foster cooperation
  • Easing academic struggles
  • Tackling everyday challenges, from tantrums and backtalk to staying organised, building friendships, and more.

With useful exercises and easy-to-remember techniques, you'll discover a variety of practical strategies that really work, creating positive change that will last a lifetime.
