Publisher's summary

The ADHD Parenting Guide for Boys is the parenting cheat code you have been searching for!

Inside the book, you will find practical solutions geared toward boys aged 3-17. The chapters explore common challenges experienced as a result of living with ADHD and provide targeted strategies such as:

  • Identifying sensory triggers for oversensitive boys or determining the right amount of stimulation for sensory-seeking boys
  • Finding suitable self-soothing techniques that help your child deescalate strong urges and cope with big emotions
  • Developing social awareness by improving your child’s social skills through effective communication and showing empathy

But that's not all. The final chapter includes a range of age-appropriate exercises to help your child practice some of the new skills you will introduce them to, such as how to create healthy habits, make wise decisions, or communicate their feelings using the DESO script.

Parenting is a journey that can feel deeply rewarding when you and your child get on the same page. The good news is that your child's learning and behavioral challenges no longer need to get in the way of building a strong relationship with them.

Loved the strategies

Given the techniques for upholding routines, engaging in active listening, and establishing limits for each child, this would be an excellent manual for any parent.

Some useful recommendations but need a different narrator

The ideas and recommendations from the book seem helpful. I don’t know how an author could make ADHD a riveting topic or draw readers in, so I guess Mr. Bass does as good as can be expected. The main critique I have isn’t even about the content of the book; it’s more with the narrator. Some narrators have voices that, if not rich and expressive, at the very least aren’t annoying. This narrator has a high pitched voice and, while he’s animated and enthusiastic, the high pitch of his voice makes the presentation hard to listen to. If you’re considering listening to this book on Audible, I’d suggest you first listen to the sample provided by Audible to make sure you’re not turned off to the narrators voice like I was.

Great educational book

Good book with a lot of information. I've been listening it ever since a recent adhd diagnosis for my son. And when I put some of the book's advice to use, it was really successful. This book is excellent!
