THE
FREE
ADHD
E-BOOK
Recently, I was contacted by the author of a truly enlightening, well written, concise, informative, humorous, and well researched ELECTRONIC BOOK on ADHD.
The author is
Martin L Kutscher, MD
Assistant Clinical Professor of Pediatrics and Neurology,
New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York.
Pediatric Neurological Associates, White Plains, New York
IMPORTANT! YOU REALLY NEED TO READ THIS E-BOOK if you want to be quickly and thoroughly informed about Attention Deficit Disorder w/ and w/out hyperactivity. The book is for parents, teachers, children, teenagers, family units, and virtually anyone else who spends time with an ADDer.
A few quotes to whet your interest
"The winner is the parent whose child still loves them when they turn 18."
"ADHD is about overwhelmed kids who yell at their mother when she tries to help them. It is about mothers who feel that their relationship with their child is slipping away. It is about fathers who come home to find everyone at wit's end."
"Keep a good attitude about yourself. Remember that ADHDers also have many
great traits. They know how to have fun and enjoy the present moment. They are
often quite smart, very creative, and have a "why not try it?"
attitude that is the envy of many people."
"The chief difficulty is that people with ADHD cannot inhibit the present
moment long enough to consider the future.... if you only had 4 seconds to live,
it would make sense to play a video game rather than to homework."
Dr. Kutscher states "I want to explain behavioral approaches for home and school, and the role of medications......... I scoured through the top books, condensed the best insights of brilliant thinkers, added some of my own, and wrote this text. The idea was to be brief but not "dumbed down." Realistic, yet optimistic.'
The text will discuss and explain how and why you must avoid
"The Four Cardinal
Sins"
Don't nag.
Don't lecture.
Don't argue.
Don't offer unscheduled, spontaneous "advice."
