For Alison, life with her son Daniel sometimes seemed like an
endless round of difficulties: disobedience, backchat, rudeness,
name-calling and aggression. Upon starting school, where his
aggression and lack of concentration concerned teachers, Daniel was
given a vague diagnosis of borderline Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which was later changed to ADHD with
secondary Oppositional Defiant Disorder and autistic traits. In
this honest account of the first 18 years of Daniel's life, Alison
exposes her own worries, doubts, and exceptional courage at every
pivotal turn in Daniel's life. Interspersing the narrative with
tips and advice on what she has found useful - or not - in bringing
up Daniel, Alison also provides encouraging guidance for teachers
and fellow parents. This book also raises serious questions about
how the education system supports children with special needs, and
if medication can be the answer to managing ADHD in children.
