Executive Functioning by Gail McHugh

I found the book to be very informative. Easy-to-use exercises. Although I don't have children and am not a teacher there were still skills that could enrich anyone's life.

Must Read

The teen years are some of the most critical times. Often schools do not teach life skills and leave it up to the parents. This book is what is needed to be taught in schools. The games are easy and fun to play. They are a great way to re-enforce the skills that are taught.

Well written!

The teenage years are among the most crucial. Frequently, schools do not teach life skills and instead rely on the families to do so. This is the book that should be taught in schools. Playing the games is simple and enjoyable. They are an excellent approach to reinforce the lessons learned.

Very informative resource!

This book contains a wealth of information for helping teenagers improve their executive functioning skills. The author shows her depth and experience as she lays out very practical easy-to-follow strategies. The narrator is clear and easy to understand.
I would definitely recommend this book!

Excellent resource!

As a mother of a pre-teen I found this book really enlightening. Not only are there really practical applications suggested in the book, there are explanations as to why some tactics might work better on a specific type of teen/pre-teen. I also appreciated the focus on creating independent young adults. It's not just a resource for us as parents to get through this confusing years, it's a great reminder of what this time in the lives of our children is really like. I think enough time has passed for me, that I'd forgotten exactly how confusing this part of growing up was. I was grateful for the perspective, the tips, and the general positive tone of this book.
