About this listen

Desperate for help with your ADHD children? Tearing your hair out trying to understand why they don’t react or behave like other kids? Want to do the right thing - but don't have a clue what that is? Help is at hand!

Sarah Templeton, a therapist with ADHD herself, has written this book after working with hundreds of ADHD parents from all over the UK who have told her, ‘’if only I’d known all this stuff while they were growing up’’.

Well, now all this information is in one place - in an easy-to-understand format. Skip straight to whatever issue you’re struggling with right now. The book uses real-life examples of what worked, what didn’t, and why.

Recommended by ADHD psychiatrists, ADHD pediatricians, SEN teachers, ADHD parents, and ADHD teenage clients. For anyone coming into contact with ADHD kids, including moms, dads, brothers, sisters, nans, grandads, uncles and aunts, and professionals.

Find out where your child’s ADHD came from. Find out about the three different kinds of ADHD. Discover the 30 or more ADHD traits nobody ever told you about. Learn how to best handle situations you may well find yourself in with your ADHD child. Hear real-life examples where therapeutic strategies and different ways of doing things have turned ADHD houses of horror into oases of calm and serenity.

Sarah Templeton is an English counselor, CBT therapist, and coach who has specialized in ADHD since her own shock diagnosis at the age of 51. Sarah has worked in four English prisons and been dismayed at the number of diagnosed, but more often undiagnosed, ADHD kids who end up in prison.

She witnessed for herself how unmanaged ADHD adolescents can fail catastrophically at school, often leading them to experiment with drugs or alcohol and fall so easily into a life of addiction, unemployment, homelessness, and crime.

I initially bought this due to the title (I was having a particularly difficult time with my ADHD child!) but found it to be one of the most honest and helpful books I’ve read on the topic! Sarah Templeton is candid in her descriptions of the challenges that can (and most often do) arise when raising a child with ADHD, but offers frank explanations and guidance. I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a calm port in the storm of an ADHD diagnosis.

Brilliant, Funny and Informative

Loved everything, there was nothing I didn’t like. I could relate to everything despite not having children that have committed crimes but nevertheless I would recommend to everyone and anyone who needs educating about ADHD or who just wants to know more. Thankyou for this book it’s was a great read, I am a mum of 5 neurodivergent kids, wife to an ADHD husband and neurodivergent myself.

Wow what an insightful book, hits the nail On the head

I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HOW AMAZING I HAVE FOUND THIS BOOK TO BE!!

I have a lot children in my extended family and I work with children, but I also have ADHD and it felt like Sarah just opened up my brain, took a detailed inspection and then wrote it all down! I literally related to every single word!
I cannot express the depth of gratitude I feel for this book. It has helped me to understand myself on a much deeper level. It has helped me to see a lot of my behaviours are not because I am “broken”‘person. They are simply the way my brain works.
Understanding these things about myself will help me to be more compassionate, both with myself, and with the children I work with.

Sarah has written this book in a way that is deeply informative, yet simple to understand.
It has made me laugh and there were a couple of times it made me cry…. because somebody (Sarah) REALLY understands me. I am not alone.

Now I clearly see so many different techniques and behavioural approaches and paths I can try with the children who display so many of the symptoms of ADHD and those with their diagnosis, in my life.

And I can show them I AM IN THEIR CORNER! And that they are not alone.

Thank you Sarah for taking the time to write this book, and all the others you will write in the future.

Your passion to help children and adults is so clear.

You are making such a difference to the lives of so many children (and grown up children… like me).

For all of you trying to understand your children or family members or even yourself… reading this book will change your life because you cannot help but to look at the world from a different perspective. And to understand things that may have seemed totally baffling before.

I went through literal hell as a child, at school and socially. I never fit in and always felt like no one there really understand how my brain worked.
And I didn’t know so much of my behaviour and the way I think and react in life is actually down to my ADHD.
But after reading this book, I am really emotional, just thinking about how many children’s lives can be changed by having their adults understand more of how they function and how they experience the world.

This book is a gift. I wish I could stand on a street corner and just hand them out!

Bravo Sarah!
