Are You Tired of Searching For Answers?
ADHD And your Child is an in depth interview with ADHD expert, Deena Kotlewski, MA, LCPC. She earned her Masters Degree in 1995 and has been a therapist ever since. She is currently the School Counselor for the Montgomery County Public Schools and also maintains her own private practice.
Most of the children she works with generally feel depressed, anxious, and/or sad. She works with these children and adolescents who have been diagnosed with ADHD to help them navigate through life's challenges.
Now, let's talk about what ADHD really is...
There are actually three different types of ADHD. Each type has a different set of symptoms.
Predominately Inattentive - With the Predominately Inattentive type of ADHD, the child may fail to pay attention to details and have difficulty sustaining attention to a task or activity. They may also seem like they aren't listening when spoken to directly.
Predominately Hyperactive/Impulsive - With Predominately Hyperactive/ Impulsive type of ADHD, the child may fidget or squirm in their seat. They may have difficulty waiting their turn and interrupt others.
Combined - a combination of the two.
With the recognition ADHD is receiving, it is sure to breakthrough the society of stereotypes and into the society that finally understands ADHD and extends its hand in kindness.
So, we've talked briefly about what ADHD is, now let me tell you what it isn't.
Dysfunctional parenting does NOT cause ADHD!
It also is not caused from a lack of intelligence. Quite the contrary!
Researchers have found that children with ADHD who have been able to sit still long enough to take the lengthy IQ tests have been shown to possess higher IQs.
Some people believe that there is not anything wrong with these kids that proper parenting wouldn't solve. There is also the excuse that ADHD was created in order to make it easier for teachers and parents to deal with difficult children.
Rest assured that is NOT the case at all.
ADHD is as real as every other medical disorder. Your child has been diagnosed with a bona fide medical condition that has its own diagnostic requirements as well as treatment plans.
Some of the contributing factors of ADHD are:
Genetic
Biological
Low Birth Weight
Neurological
Traumatic Brain Injury
Psycho-social
