8 Keys to Parenting Children With ADHD

By: Cindy Goldrich

Narrated by: Callie Beaulieu

Parenting children with ADHD, whether diagnosed or undiagnosed, can be challenging and complex. But just as a child who struggles with reading can learn to decode words, children with ADHD can learn patience, communication, and solution-seeking skills to become more confident, independent, and capable. This book, rich with optimism, tips, tools, and action plans, offers science-based insights and systems for parents to help cultivate these skills. 8 Keys to Parenting Children with ADHD focuses on developing and strengthening effective interpersonal skills in both parents and children as a way to improve conflict resolution.

Following the parenting principle to "parent the child you have", noted therapist Cindy Goldrich offers advice to help listeners tailor their parenting to meet the needs of their unique child. This book also helps parents to recognize the value of being a leader and a guide to children, building parents' confidence in their decision making and giving children a sense of safety, security, and confidence.

Critic reviews

"Cindy Goldrich provides a clear, informative guide filled with valuable tips and tools." (Jodi Sleeper-Triplett, author of Empowering Youth with ADHD)

Really packed with information

Great book full of very useful information. Probably best as an actual book vs audio book. I am having to re-run the same character 2-3 times because it’s so densely packed with information

Great Informative Book

This book is very informative on some of the things that should be done for children with ADHD. It is a great read, especially in the beginning of learning of the disability. It gives great references & quotes to remember. I do find the main statement of "Parent the child you have" to be the ultimate favorite phrase/statement in the book of all! The audible reader is clear and precise although I feel it lacked emotion of any kind behind the words and sounded very "clinical." I would still recommend it just made the book seem to take forever to finish.

Very helpful

I wrote down quite a few ideas to try at home with my son - it was very well put together and walked you step by step on how to implement some of the strategies.

Amazing Book!
