Synopsis:

The first book to help you find treatment for secondary problems that often coincide with your child’s ADHD

Why Is My Child’s ADHD Not Better Yet? is the first book solely dedicated to helping you make sure your children have the proper ADHD diagnosis, recognize a coexisting disorder, and work with your children and your child’s doctors and teachers to receive effective treatment.
