Publisher's Summary

Desperate for help with your ADHD children? Tearing your hair out trying to understand why they don’t react or behave like other kids? Want to do the right thing - but don't have a clue what that is? Help is at hand!

Sarah Templeton, a therapist with ADHD herself, has written this book after working with hundreds of ADHD parents from all over the UK who have told her, ‘’if only I’d known all this stuff while they were growing up’’. 

Well, now all this information is in one place - in an easy-to-understand format. Skip straight to whatever issue you’re struggling with right now. The book uses real-life examples of what worked, what didn’t, and why.

Recommended by ADHD psychiatrists, ADHD pediatricians, SEN teachers, ADHD parents, and ADHD teenage clients. For anyone coming into contact with ADHD kids, including moms, dads, brothers, sisters, nans, grandads, uncles and aunts, and professionals. 

Find out where your child’s ADHD came from. Find out about the three different kinds of ADHD. Discover the 30 or more ADHD traits nobody ever told you about. Learn how to best handle situations you may well find yourself in with your ADHD child. Hear real-life examples where therapeutic strategies and different ways of doing things have turned ADHD houses of horror into oases of calm and serenity.

Sarah Templeton is an English counselor, CBT therapist, and coach who has specialized in ADHD since her own shock diagnosis at the age of 51. Sarah has worked in four English prisons and been dismayed at the number of diagnosed, but more often undiagnosed, ADHD kids who end up in prison. 

She witnessed for herself how unmanaged ADHD adolescents can fail catastrophically at school, often leading them to experiment with drugs or alcohol and fall so easily into a life of addiction, unemployment, homelessness, and crime.

Funny and informative but missed important details

It was a ingesting perspective but seemed very male ADHD centric. I also found the advised focused on not challenging your ADHD child and pretty much letting them dictate everything, but didn’t explain how we help our ADHD child grow into and have healthy interactions as an adult where jobs and higher education won’t cater to the entitlement we have fostered.

Great starting point

I loved the author’s perspective as being an ADHD person advocating for ADHD youth. Very good insights and stories explaining the complexities of ADHD. Is a great starting point for anyone dealing with ADHD children.

Really funny and relatable, but needs more

The author is hilarious and certainly experienced in the field. The book explained many of the signs of ADHD for each of the subtypes. What was missing was a variety of strategies. every strategy was essentially bribe then to do it and they will. Buy them take out, clothes, gift cards, treats anything in exchange for positive behaviour, completing work, withholding their impulses... what if you don't have the money? and how do you help them develop the chipping skills needed in the future?
