Instead recognize the amazing power you do have and focus only on that. You get to choose the environment your child gets to live in and experience life. You are a shepherd not an engineer. You can not make a sheep into a sheep dog, no matter of wanting it, or throwing stuff at it will make an animal change species. Given proper motivation and the right environment though and that sheep can grow up and be a ram, and still protect the rest of the herd.

Please support CADDAC http://www.caddac.ca Stop teaching so many skills. More skills will not fix the problem. Instead organize the environment and your behavior so your disability is less debilitating. ADHD is a disorder of self regulation ADHD people have no problem interacting with the environment if the consequences are NOW and immediate. Thus create external stimuli and forces to replace what should be internal motivation and stimuli. You can never out train ADHD, no amount of training will change ADHD. So stop trying to fix ADHD by doing one more thing. Instead try to manage ADHD, to prevent secondary harms like failure. You do this by making it easier for the ADHD person to function by making them interacting with external factors and not internal ones.

Nearsightednessof Time Pyramids of Behavior, Behavior in a Hierachy Back of the Brain is Knowledge, the front of the brain is how you put that knowledge to use.

Please support CADDAC http://www.caddac.ca ADHD and Causation Barkley explains the percent of ADHD that is genetic, and the percent that is environmental. The Five Regions of the brain that are smaller with people that have the genetic cause of ADHD Right Frontal Lobe (Orbital Prefrontal Cortex) Basal Ganglia (Mainly Striatum and Globus Pallidum) Cerebellum (central vermis area, more on right side) Anterior Cingulate Cortex Corpus Callosum (Primary Anterior Splenium) ADHD children also have a 2 to 3 year delay in the growth and the size of these parts of the brain. Eventually as adults the size will for the most part equalize and only be 3 to 8% smaller. Even though these parts of the brain are barely smaller, it is the electrical activity and how the brain that is wired that really cause the ADHD. Not the size of the parts but how those parts are wired and do they generate enough electrical activity to adequaltely use those parts of the brain in daily life. Current medical imaging can't diagnose individuals for the size difference is too close and too subtle to normal. Yet look at hundreds or thousands of scans and patterns emerge. The importance of twin studies and what twin studies tell us about causation. For more videos and info from ADHD Experts check out my blog at http://adhdvideosandinfo.blogspot.com/
