German (!) Booktitle by Cordula Neuhaus

Description:

Hyperactivity is not the actual main problem of socalled "hyperactive kids"; it is their strong sensibility and their impulsiveness. These kids have always had their place in time. Only that now-a-days they are more visible both in society and school and suffer -like their children and teachers - from their inability to act as expected from their surroundings.

This book explains and describes this attention deficit syndrom, which may occur with or without hyperactivity. It gives good examples for its appearance and encourages parents, that life with these children may be harder but not hopeless. And it gives answers to the questions:

Where does the phenomenon come from?
How can we understand how these kids "function"?
Is there specific advice?
Which therapy helps?
Which doesnt?
Does this problem disappear by itself?
