Publisher's summary

A fully revised and updated edition of the groundbreaking book on tackling the root causes of children’s attention and behavior problems rather than masking the symptoms with medication.

More than 20 years after Dr. Thomas Armstrong's Myth of the A.D.D. Child first published, he presents much needed updates and insights in this substantially revised edition. When The Myth of the A.D.D. Child was first published in 1995, Dr. Thomas Armstrong made the controversial argument that many behaviors labeled as ADD or ADHD are simply a child's active response to complex social, emotional, and educational influences. In this fully revised and updated edition, Dr. Armstrong shows listeners how to address the underlying causes of a child's attention and behavior problems in order to help their children implement positive changes in their lives.

The rate of ADHD diagnosis has increased sharply, along with the prescription of medications to treat it. Now needed more than ever, this book includes 51 new non-drug strategies to help children overcome attention and behavior problems, as well as updates to the original 50 proven strategies.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A vital read for parents and teachers kids aged 4-16

Jam-packed with resources and research to support families and children that struggle with attention. Great ideas to implement both in and out of learning environments to help children acquire self-management and reflection skills to help them thrive. As a teacher, this title will be my go-to for best-practices to provide more variety and accommodations in my classes.
