life with add...
So I'm here at an education conference and I attended a great seminar by Jody Capehart on add/adhd. Most information and seminars on add/adhd focus on how to get kids with this neurological disorder to be less add/adhd and stay out of the way of progress by "normal" students. This one was a breath of fresh air. I suffer from add, or attention deficit disorder and I my 8 year old has adhd, or attention deficit hyperactive disorder. Many of the battles we face as a family are challenging and very stressful. Some days are good, some are bad, and some are very, very ugly. Back to Jody Capehart, she presented the information in such a balanced way, not giving us a free pass, but also not throwing all the blame us as well. She has co-written two great books on the subject and I recommend her as an invaluable resource. Hasta luego
