Why ADHD Doesn't Mean Disaster

Why ADHD Doesn't Mean Disaster provides a realistic, encouraging perspective from parents who have raised children with ADHD, as well as some who have ADHD themselves. Filled with insights, personal stories and sound medical expertise, this book gives parents facing the challenges of handling ADHD hope that breaks through the hype.

Parents of kids with A.D.H.D. (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) have been taught that the disorder is a serious handicap--that it will make raising their child difficult, and that the child will continually struggle to succeed in school and throughout life. Parents are looking for hope, encouragement, and answers to their questions. Why A.D.H.D. Doesn’t Mean Disaster gives parents of children with A.D.H.D. just what they need: a strong dose of encouragement from fellow parents who have children with A.D.H.D., support for valuing the benefits of having a child with an attention disorder, and just the right amount of practical medical advice needed for understanding.

“As a psychiatrist with A.D.H.D. myself, I enthusiastically endorse this book and appreciate its positive view. Filled with helpful advice, including behavioral management strategies, parenting helps, advice for teachers, and safe medications, it’s also a very enjoyable read!”
Paul Meier, M.D.,

This book is wonderful! It gave me hope and a new perspective on ADHD. I now approach ADHD like a personality type and a gift in many ways, and that has opened my daughters' world up so much. A must have for any parent with an ADHD or an adult who struggles with themselves because they have it.
