Author and psychologist Dr. Sharon Saline brings her positive approach to parenting children and teens with ADHD to Montclair for a free discussion with Montclair local Gail Belsky, senior editor at the parenting website, Understood, at 7 p.m. on Thursday, October 4 at Watchung Booksellers.
As a parent or educator, do you wonder what’s really going on in the minds of kids with ADHD? In her new book, Dr. Sharon Saline offers rare insights into how kids honestly think and feel about having ADHD. With her unique, strength-based approach, ’the 5 Cs of ADHD parenting,’ you will learn how to teach your kids daily living skills with less arguing and more cooperation. The ADHD brain is neurologically different and what works for some children does not necessarily work with this creative but easily distracted group. In this presentation, Dr. Saline will leverage her unique insight into how kids honestly think and feel about having ADHD. Build loving connections by learning to interpret what your kids are communicating verbally and behaviorally.
