The beginning is pretty bleak and depressing if you have a child with ADHD. the second half goes into behavior treatment parents can take on so the tone of the book starts to improve. our psychiatrist mentioned that Barkley isn't strength based so you'll see more punitive and strict methods.

Barkley is an ADHD guru. book is dry but good.

I heard it two times and a few more times are in my plan.Subject material and tone are quite compatible with what goes on with human emotions for the innocent youth facing consequences of a disorder that prevents their cognitive success

Very compatible narration

My five-year-old son’s Therapist said he was trained using the knowledge of Dr. Russell a Barkley PhD on the subject of children with ADHD and all things related. He is a great therapist and he has helped my child immensely. My son is only five years old and his ADHD is so severe that he is already on medication, I have listened to a couple of Dr.Barkley’s books and I plan to listen to many more.

Dr. Russell a Barkley PHD sets the standard for educating yourself on raising a child with ADHD

I wish Dr. Barkley would have narrated the book as he is a wonderful orator. Regardless, I cannot stand the way the narrator’s delivery; the tone of the book is completely off. Even if you aren’t familiar with Dr. Barkley’s vocal delivery, there is a clear disconnect between the the narrator and the information.

Horrendous narration

The first 3rd was really tough to get through, but when it came to the intervention and concrete coaching it was much better.

Great book giving a thorough overview and explanation on ADHD in school-going children, the treatments, drugs used and addressing any concerns. Every parent of an ADHD child should own this book! (And every clinician treating them!)

A must-have in your quest to help your ADHD child
