MIKE'S OPINIONS:
ADD KIDS LEARN DIFFERENTLY
#1 complaint we hear from ADD families: The school staff doesn't listen! How do I get them to provide necessary accommodations? I've tried and tried and they just don't do anything!
There are educators who are well trained and skilled in dealing with ADD kids. However, my experience has been that 60-80% of educators are just as ill-informed about ADD as the general public. You've got to develop your own knowledge and skill about how your ADD child learns best!

MEDICATION:
"DRUGS!” - “DOESN'T WORK!”
The #2 complaint is about medication. They're drugs! I don't think it's working! My child's moodier than ever! Homework is still a problem! They can't get to sleep!
WE'VE GOT ANSWERS !!! 90% of “problems” with medications stems from inadequate education about how medications work, why they are appropriate, and how to determine proper dosage and dose timing.
We educate you about the “little things” that can make BIG differences in the most effective use of medication. Also, medication buy itself isn't enough! Order our information on medications.
NOT JUST ADD
Roughly 75% of all ADD people have other “hidden” disorders! Most common are:
• Sensory Integration Disorders (auditory, visual, tactile processing problems)
• Depression or Anxiety Disorders
• Reading and/or Writing Disorders
• Bipolar Disorder
• Working Memory Deficits
• Tourette's Disorder
• Scotopic Sensitivity
These MUST be diagnosed and treated also. When these other problems aren't recognized and treated, suffering continues and things always get worse.
WE CAN ADVISE AND GUIDE YOU ABOUT HOW TO SPOT OTHER PROBLEMS AND GET HELP !!!
