The Frazzled Parent

Learning 19 Essential Skills to Teach Yourself and Your Pre-teen ADHD Child to Successfully Navigate Today’s Short Attention Span World

De: Elaine Hogan

Narrado por: Robin McAlpine

Does your heart break every time you see your child struggle academically, socially, and emotionally because of their ADHD symptoms?

Are you worried that your pre-teen’s condition will hinder them from having a happy and successful life during their teenage and adult years?

Do you want to equip your child with the skills they need to thrive as they grow up, but don’t know exactly where to begin?

Whether you’ve only learned about your pre-teen’s diagnosis recently or you’ve been trying to manage their condition for quite some time, you may find yourself constantly overwhelmed, stressed, and even frustrated…and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.

You are not alone in your situation–the fact is, ADHD is considered the third-most-common mental health disorder among children across the globe.

The good news is, just like any other child’s brain, your pre-teen’s mind is still developing, and will continue to develop. This means that with your help, love, and care for them, your young one can learn the skills that they need, develop their strengths, and realize their dreams.

After all, a lot of individuals who have been diagnosed with ADHD thrived in their respective fields–just look at Hollywood star and modern female role model Emma Watson, business magnate Bill Gates, basketball legend Michael Jordan, and even Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci.

This just proves that when kids are given the right opportunities and proper support, their life with ADHD can be truly amazing.

Fortunately, this book contains everything you need to be able to help your child–it can serve as your roadmap to navigate the challenging world of ADHD.

Inside, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

• Nineteen skills that your pre-teen must know to be adept and self-sufficient in the years to come.
• A crash course on ADHD: know more about what your child goes through so you can offer them the right type of help.
• A holistic approach to equipping your pre-teen for life–from developing healthy habits, learning social skills, managing emotions, building a routine, and making decisions.
• Different ways to manage their condition, because contrary to popular belief, addressing ADHD takes more than just pills.
• What “executive age” is, and the crucial role it plays in your child’s development.
• Six things you should avoid at all costs while trying to help your pre-teen.
• Over 20 self-care tips for you as a parent–help yourself so you can help your child.
• The secret weapon of Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps that made him overcome the struggles of ADHD and find success.

And much more.

Despite what you may have heard before, ADHD does not come from bad parenting–you are not to blame for your child’s condition.

However, the way you respond to your pre-teen’s situation can make a long-lasting difference in their life.

Fantastic Audiobook

This audiobook was tremendous!!! I can imagine how stressful it can be to raise a young teenager, but having one with slight challenges such as ADHD can seem to be overwhelming. This audiobook was pleasant to listen to. The content was practical and easy to follow. Having this audiobook as a go to resource is a no brainer! Awesome Job.

Must have resource for ALL parents!

I was originally interested in this book to be able to better understand what my sister and nephew are going through with his recent ADHD diagnosis. Not only were misconceptions that I had squashed, but the information I learned I also plan on incorporating with my toddler! Being a single mom, I also found the self-care chapter to be an important reminder to take care of me. ;) I plan to use some of the exercises in helping my 4 year old to express and process her feelings. I also plan on sharing this book with my sister and nephew to aid in their adaptation to his diagnosis. So grateful and thankful for this comprehensive and easy to understand resource and that we are able to start using these tools early in our children's lives! Thank you!!!

Full of excellent information and help!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book and learned so much along the way. The author has an extensive knowledge in diagnosing ADHD, the challenges that come with parenting these children, and effective strategies to help them gain skills necessary for living a happy, productive life. Every chapter is thoughtfully written, focusing on topics that kids with ADHD deal with on a daily basis. Effective tips and techniques that are discussed are practical and manageable. I especially appreciate the section on self care. The real life stories that Miss Hogan includes are so interesting and help parents realize that they are not alone. I am a retired second grade teacher and I have had years of experience with kids who just cannot focus normally. This is truly an exceptional resource for parents and teachers! I highly recommend!
