Publisher's summary

One fact that is often misunderstood by a majority is that the real role model for children are their parents, as they are the ones responsible for the incorporation of anything good or bad in their children.

The term "Alpha parents", which is also the title of this book, is also wrongly interpreted by many and taken as the assertion of parents’ will and decisions over their children. Instead, it is the building of harmonious relationships and strong family bonds between parents and children.

This book, Alpha Parents, is a profound blend of some highly beneficial ideas that are essential for strong family relationships. It consists of some real-life stories that emphasize the role of Alpha parents and how their behaviors and norms can impact their children.

Family is not merely a blood relationship; in fact, it’s the name of accepting, valuing, and admiring each member of the family and standing with each other through thick and thin. Alpha parents are responsible for incorporating the sentiments of love, kindness, helpfulness, and empathy in their children by setting examples.

If "home sweet home" is a reality, then Alpha parents are the ones who are responsible for practically demonstrating this phrase by inculcating the importance of home, family members, communication, and independence among their children. This book will illustrate the importance of family, home, and the role of parents to make the environment of home a soothing one.

With the help of short yet attractive stories, this book has demonstrated the family values and the teachings of Alpha parents - how the Alpha parents can lead their children, what should be the method to treat your teens and other family members, how to teach your children right and wrong without imposing your decisions, and how to lead your children to success by creating a friendly environment.

Life is not a bed of roses, and every family has to pass through some hard stages in life. Those hard yet inevitable stages of life may create differences between the family members, but the role of Alpha parents is to keep the family united by listening and accepting the status and arguments of each family member.

This book will comprehensively explain the role of Alpha parents during the dark stages by setting examples and teaching the children how and why sacrifices are necessary for the development and growth of family. Not each member of the family is same, and everyone has to play a role during bad times.

This book is a must.

This book is a must for any adult who has or is suspected of having ADHD. The author teaches us about neurodiversity and helps us understand how the ADHD brain functions particularly when it comes to dating and marriage.

Healthy and happy child

With the practices to improve listening comprehension and communication, we have felt much more relieved than before, because we have seen results that really encourage us to keep working for our son's well being, there is nothing that makes us feel better than that.

So helpful!

I’ve struggle for years trying to get my hands around the ‘whys’ of my daughter’s behavior. This book has given me a deeper understanding of what is actually happening in the household and structure to constructively deal with the challenges.

Most encouraging book

Admittedly this book was not what I expected at 1st but working through it I realized after it is more important to listen to this book before you get into tips and strategies practical ways to work with ADD. This book seems foundational any other book you listen you will have more success with if you listen to this first.

How to handle behavior outside the home.

This is perhaps the facet in which we had more problems at home with our boys. Since we started listening to this audio, we have developed many techniques and strategies to use in various contexts.

Loved it

Very insightful. I didn’t get it all the first time, but I will probably listen through it again. I learned so much new about ADHD, and why what has been going well for me has, and why what has been problematic has.

Prepared mind

I have absorbed information in my mind that prepared me very well to come out unscathed from any situation that I could live with respect to the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder that my son suffers. I don't need more information, here is all I need.

Actual advice!

I have listened to a few audiobooks on ADHD and haven’t retained any meaningful advice, but this book gives more strategies in an organized and well-explained way. Definitely the best ADHD book for those who already know the difficulties of ADHD, don’t need the background and just need the tools to better address it.
