Sommario/riassunto

In Parenting Your Child with ADHD, a psychologist specializing in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) offers a revolutionary new intervention for ADHD in children. His thirty years in private practice and research form the basis of a cutting-edge approach in which parents identify factors that contribute to the reinforcement of ADHD behaviors and learn to reinforce independent responsibility and empathy toward others instead.
