DESCRIPTION
A Guide for Parents and Counselors
Empowering children and teens with ADHD, this guide presents strategic methods to enhance vital social and daily skills. Through interactive exercises, checklists, quizzes, and guided journaling, it builds better conversation, nurtures friendships, and fosters healthy routines and organization.
Teaching Life Skills to Children and Teens with ADHD describes the Life Skills Program created by author Vincent J. Monastra at his ADHD clinic.
When children have attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), even if their medication smoothes out the worst of the bumps, they still may have a lot of trouble in social situations like school. Teaching Life Skills to Children and Teens with ADHD features practical strategies for helping children and teens develop essential life skills at home, school, or in a support group setting.
Some of these skills include:
amp bull Engaging others in conversations
amp bull Seeking out confidence-building experiences
amp bull Responding appropriately to teasing
amp bull Establishing friendships and social networks
amp bull Trying group activities to avoid isolation
amp bull Developing healthy eating, sleeping and exercise habits
amp bull Solving problems and getting organized
amp bull Showing sensitivity to others amp rsquo emotions
Each chapter includes exercises to help you teach, model, and guide your child in trying out these skills. Interactive checklists, quizzes, and guided journal entries are provided as tools for reflection and for engaging children and teens in ways that are interesting and fun.
