Back to School with ADHD

It's that time of year!  It's back to school.  Transitions can be difficult for those with ADHD, especially for children headed back to school. Parents can help their kids prepare for the transition by easing the child into it and gradually re-introducing homework. In this episode, Dr. Kenny Handelman, a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist, talks with host and attention coach Jeff Copper on strategies and tips to make that transition back to school after the freedom of the summer holiday. Join us live by calling 646-652-4409.  Dr. Handelman's book, Attention Difference Disorder: How to Turn Your ADHD Child or Teen's Differences into Strengths in 7 Simple Steps, with foreword by Edward Hallowell MD, was released in June 2011 and is available at www.attentiondifferencedisorder.com.    Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self help internet radio shows focusing on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD.
