Secrets for Parents Help is here for Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD) Children! Teachers are constantly telling them to "pay attention...sit still...try harder." Parents don’t seem to understand why their child seems so much brighter than their school grades indicate. The children themselves are often trying very hard, though no one seems to believe them. Fighting in the home can become unmanageable. These children are called behavior problems, a nuisance, mentally handicapped, they are hated by their peers, and socially labeled. These children are embarrassed by their inability to learn the way other children do. They are laughed at by their school mates when they attend "Special Ed" classes because they have difficulty learning to read. Homes of the ADHD child are often in chaos. There is rarely a peaceful time. Parents are angry, frustrated, disappointed and guilt ridden. They feel inadequate as a parent. Marriages have been destroyed over this. Proper diagnosis is crucial and there is medication to help. But that is not enough.......

Ransom Two Perspectives - Elizabeth Ryan - Mark and Mary Kay Hollinger Resources - Books, Videos, Additional Information From the DEA Methylphenidate (available as the brand-name product Ritalin) is a Schedule II stimulant which is structurally and pharmacologically similar to the amphetamines. Approximately 85 to 90% of all prescriptions for methylphenidate are written for young children and adolescents for the treatment of ADHD. According to the United Nations 1993 statistics on psychotropic substances, the U.S. produces and consumes more than 80% of the total world supply of methylphenidate. The United Nations International Narcotics Control Board has, on two recent occasions, written letters to U.S. officials expressing concern about the sharp increase in the use of methylphenidate in the United States. Support and advisory groups play an important role in the distribution of information regarding ADHD and its treatment. In recent years there have been large increases in membership in these organizations. Children and Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder (CHADD) is the nation's largest ADHD support organization. CHADD sponsors parent support groups, convenes meetings featuring speakers, works with local school systems and provides information regarding ADHD and related issues.

KidSource Calendar/Learning and Other Disabilities Resources for Parents advertisement An Overview Denial and Anger When the possibility first arises that your child might have a disability, try to learn as much as you can. If you find yourself getting defensive and denying that there might be a disability, it'll only delay help. Information is key. Prevent Parent Burnout Preventing Parent Burnout should be priority reading for every parent of a learning disabled child. It's Not too Early Public school districts (in the U.S.) are required to offer special services to those in need from the age of three. Don't wait until kindergarten before you approach your local school district to see what services might be available for your disabled child. Get Second Opinions If your child has been diagnosed with something you feel unfamiliar with and unprepared for, please consider getting a second opinion. The specialist that's chosen can make all the difference in how your child is treated. Camps for the Disabled Check out the NICHCY Directories of Summer Camps For Children With Disabilities Special Ed or Inclusion Every decade the trend seems to change on whether a separate special ed class works best, or if inclusion in the "regular" classroom is optimum.

ADD and ADHD Law Rights in School . A schooling horror story with a happy ending you may get ideas from Legal rights in the USA Legal resources for ADHD people and their parents in the USA A Horror Story with a Happy Ending This email arrived last month, and with the Mum's permission it has been reprinted as it may help you find answers. "My son's last school was hell on earth, to put it mildly. The principal had stated to me "why do you fight for your kids, they're nothing but trouble makers." When the youngest, Jakeadhd, was trying new meds and a new school, he had behavior problems. He ended up getting away from special ed teacher and hitting/kicking principal. This caused them to call police as my husband and I were out of town shopping. The police were never told he was special needs, the school did NOT give police his meds, and they put him into temporary foster care til we got home. This happened around ten in the morning and we didnt get home til around two thirty. My son had charges pressed against him by the school/principal. The court appointed lawyer thought he was just a brat til I contacted him to tell of his adhd. Then I had to do all the calling and getting information to the lawyer. We ended up with Jake in a diversionary program. It still cost us hundreds of dollars. Due to this problem, we ended up putting Jake into a psychiatric hospital. This was the best thing for him. We found out he was also ODD. We got meds leveled and a para for him at school. Things went well for him.
