Sci-fi drama directed by Phillip Noyce and starring Jeff Bridges,
Meryl Streep and Brenton Thwaites. Set in a seemingly utopian
future where all war, emotion and personal freedom have been
eradicated, the film follows Jonas (Thwaites), a young man who is
chosen to be the recipient of the community's collective memories.
As he learns the details of the community's history from The Giver
(Bridges), he grows frustrated with the power those in charge hold
over his fellow citizens and the terrible price they have been
forced to pay in exchange for conformity and peace...

THIS BOOK WILL CHALLENGE THE MAINSTREAM THINKING OF ADD/HD: Dr.
Kevin sees this as an evolutionary process and as such we need to
allow it to adjust the environment and work with it, not medicate
it. The goal of that process is to broaden the bandwidth of
humanity, not to replace non-ADD/HD people but to "ADD" to them.
ADD/HD people over the last century have been creating a more
ADD/HD friendly and challenging environment with technology such as
computers and interactive games. ADD/HD individuals are not broken,
not disabled, do not need to be fixed and are mostly handicapped by
a series of choices that oftentimes they don't know or understand
why they are making. There is a need to separate what is really an
ADD/HD issue and what is an issue of the ADD/HD person living in a
non- ADD/HD. In this book parents are given insights, tools and
skills to help empower the ADD/HD child in their life. The reader
takes this journey through first understanding, then parenting,
teaching guiding and supporting, learning how to embrace their
child's gifts and talents on their terms. This can be accomplished
without having to sacrifice brilliance, creativity or unique ways
of seeing or being in the world through the overuse of medication
or behavior modification techniques that destroy their self-worth
and self-esteem. Dr. Kevin's work with ADD/HD children and adults
helps them better self-manage their ADD/HD gifts while also
assisting parents, educators and other support systems to better
understand and support them. He also specializes in helping ADD/HD
driven businesses to thrive.
