About this title

Synopsis

2015 International Book Awards Winner, Psychology & Mental Health

There are guidebooks to set expectations for pregnancy and caring for baby, but not one step-by-step guide for the challenge of learning to raise a child with ADHD... until now. 

What to Expect When You're Not Expecting ADHD offers a 9-step plan to tame the chaos and turn the struggles into triumphs. Use this guide and the 25+ worksheets included to learn about your child's behaviors, triggers, strengths, and weaknesses, to improve life for your child with ADHD, and your entire family. 

Don't be fooled though -- this is not your typical book on ADHD. Williams keeps it real, providing authentic, down in the trenches, trial-by-fire advice from a momma who has lived it. Whether your child's diagnosis is new or you've been struggling for years, What to Expect is your instruction manual for effectively parenting your child with ADHD.

About the Author

A self-described "veteran" parent of a son with ADHD, Penny Williams is the author of the award-winning, Amazon best-seller about her parenthood in the trenches, Boy Without Instructions: Surviving the Learning Curve of Parenting a Child with ADHD, and author of the award-winning What to Expect When Parenting Children with ADHD. She is also a frequent contributor on parenting a child with ADHD for ADDitude Magazine, Healthline and other parenting and special needs publications.

"I endured a long learning curve when my son was diagnosed with ADHD," says Williams. "I share my experiences parenting my son, Ricochet, in the hopes of shortening that painful time of trial by fire for others." Williams says she gains strength in parenting Ricochet through a quote from Albert Einstein, "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."
