A game-changing resource for parents caught in the labyrinth of the
promoted treatments heralding help for troubled children and their
families, this book provides readers invaluable guidance in seeking
accurate diagnosis and scientifically verified treatment options.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in children is real
and can be severely disabling. However, most causes of children's
attention problems are unrelated to ADHD and are not resolvable by
drugging the child. Treating symptoms is simply not adequate; a
completely different approach to the diagnoses and treatment of
attention problems in children is necessary. This book identifies
the many neurological patterns associated with children's attention
challenges, explains the many psychological and physical factors
that can affect attention, and describes how to determine if your
child needs not medication but other approaches-such as
psychological guidance, diet changes, or simply time to develop
past childhood-to solve the problem. Paul G. Swingle, PhD, RPsych,
provides millions of parents who are desperate for scientifically
sound information about how to help their children with conditions
that are negatively impacting their learning, development, and
happiness with a resource that is precise, definitive, and easy to
read. Illustrated with examples from across his 30 years of
practice, Swingle's book informs readers about the many factors
that can affect children's attention and can often be treated with
drugless approaches and therapy for success. Parents will
understand how intolerance of what constitutes normal children's
behavior and the failure to recognize the emotional challenges that
many children have in our culture today constitute causative
factors in the misdiagnosis of attention deficit disorders.
Provides parents and teachers with critical information that
identifies the questions they should ask and points the way to
finding a correct diagnosis and curative understanding of
treatments Explains why the error rate for diagnoses of ADHS and
many other conditions affecting children's ability to thrive in
school is so high Authored by a highly respected expert on child
psychology, neurotherapy, and psychophysiology who is a fellow of
the Canadian Psychological Association and has been a lecturer at
Harvard
