WOW!


Last night after reading 100 pages of another book this week that was way over my head, the one that I had on hold from the library finally came in.
Started reading and WOW! The title is KIDS IN THE SYNDROME MIX of ADHD, LD, Asperger's, Tourettes, Bipolor and more! By Martin L. Kutscher MD. Dr Kutscher is a pediatric Neurologist with more than 18 yrs experience of diagnosing neuropsychiatric disorders.

This book is put in a way that anyone can follow. And from the start you start shaking your head yes, you are not alone. Starting with the fact that most children have multiple issues, they may have Tourettes,ADHD and Aspergers or any other combination. Which makes a diagnosis very hard, because syndromes frequently mix together. Some may even imitate each other, like a very anxious distracted child may look like he has ADHD.

FIRST SIGNS

"No Child's problem is diagnosed on the basis of one piece of information. Over time, multiple observers all become increasingly aware that there is a problem. The concerns typically brew over several years, until someone finally gets sufficiently frustrated to say "Hey, there's a pattern here. Something is up!" "
Dr. Kutscher

Parents know their children the best. And being the one that spends the most time with the child, Mothers tend to have concerns first. They hear all the complaints from the teachers and bear the brunt of the child's frustrations. If a parent sees that something is wrong they are normally right.
You Absolutely need to go to your library and borrow this book!
