Everyone struggles occasionally with sitting still, distractions, forgetting appointments, completing long-term projects, and losing schoolbooks, but these things can be particularly frequent and problematic for those with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a condition that affects an estimated 11 percent of school-aged people. This insightful book offers straightforward information about ADHD, as well as oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), which affects many people with and without ADHD. Readers will learn about diagnosis procedures, treatment options, and empowering strategies to thrive at home, school, and beyond.
