Voices From Fatherhood - Fathers Sons & Adhd (Hardcover)

Children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder create unique challenges within the family setting. While mothers are still the primary caregivers, the father-son relationship is a special one. As fathers contribute more as caregivers, as well as role models and mentors, they need to understand what their sons are going through as they cope with ADHD, and they most bond with their sons in channelling their often unfocused energy in productive and fulfilling ways. This is the first book written specifically to help fathers navigate the complex world of ADHD. It encourages personal growth while providing fathers with strategies for guiding their sons. Building on first person accounts, this book strikes the unique balance of offering factual information about ADHD and at the same time focusing on the personal impact on the father-son relationship. An essential guidebook, Voices from Fatherhood helps fathers enhance and broaden their relationships with their sons and their entire family. Because it is highly supportive, factual, and practical, mothers will find it useful for understanding the complexities of the father-son relationship. Educators and mental health professionals will find it indispensable in helping families cope with the various aspects of ADHD.
