Fostering Independence in ADHD Kids – 2018

Imagine a world where both you and your child make choices about how to engage rather than react. Finding ways to encourage Response-Ability in children with ADHD can be uniquely challenging. Willson reviews thoughtful strategies that will help you put a plan together to nurture a child’s ability to make appropriate goals, and take responsibility for their actions and behavior. He outlines strategies to help children to produce better results in decision-making, follow through, and taking responsibility by learning to practice Response-Ability.
