The overall feeling I have towards this book is compassionate and thoughtful. I was really impressed by the author's way of making the reader feel not alone. My daughter has trouble focusing and has endless energy. We have not had her tested but reading this book was super helpful for me to understand how to parent these special children.

I appreciate the chapters on schooling and self-care the most. It's so hard to take care of yourself when you are solely focused on helping your child. But it is so important and cannot be forgotten if you are to get through this challenge.

Well done, book; I was impressed.

Thoughtful and well done!

What attarcted me to listening to this audiobook, was that it starts with "understanding". I'm not here to tame my ADHD child. Sure, school results are important, but, to me, the bond with my child is much more important than for them to 'be good'. Advice on how to advocate for them at school is particularly helpful.

All about that bond

This audiobook is incredibly helpful for parents, teachers, caregivers or even like me, friends of parents who have a child with ADHD. It breaks down what makes ADHD unique and gives loads of tips you can actually use to handle tricky behaviours and bring more calm to the home and family life. There’s great advice on how to work with schools and stand up for your child when needed, plus ideas for strengthening your relationship with them at home. I especially liked how it doesn’t just focus on what’s hard—it’s about noticing and celebrating what your child does well too. The mindfulness exercises and self-care suggestions are so helpful, especially when things feel overwhelming. If you’re a parent who wants to connect more with your child and feel more in control, this audiobook is definitely worth a listen and it's one I will share and listen to again and again.
