      Book Overview

      Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), the inability to concentrate, affects at least one child in an average classroom and often goes undiagnosed. Moss provides both a comprehensive treatment plan and the knowledge a parent or teacher needs to help a child with ADD reach their full potential. You will learn how to: spot and evaluate ADD in both children and adults; find a knowledgeable, caring team of professionals who can provide your child with safe, effective therapy; evaluate med. treat., and medications for children of different ages and with varying attention difficulties; treat ADD at home with behavior-modification techniques; devise an educational therapy for ADD children -- and the role of your child's teacher; and other accompanying learning disabilities. This description may be from another edition of this product.
