The decision came after a letter was sent home from public school stating that the students in our son's school would begin rotating all classes. He doesn't do well with rotating classes. Too much noise and confusion. We talked to the teacher, the principle, the special ed director and the superintendent but to no avail. They were only interested in their view of mass teaching. Every six months we would be told by the teacher that our son needed to have his Ritalin increased. After much thought we decided to try homeschooling.With the help of our cousin who was already teaching her three, we began after the Christmas holidays. . . .Since then he has blossomed." - 7/1

of the Past by
Caroline Hensby and Bernard Braham.
FREE
downloadable book! Requires Windows (3.1 - 95)
"For a child, being labeled with ADD or ADHD can be a double-wounding. First, of course, there's the ADD itself, andthe academic and/or social problems which have probably plagued the child his or her entire life as a result of it. But on top of that, there's the often even more painful wounding of being told that he or she has a "disorder" and, compared to others, is "deficient." These are very strong words, and children take such things very seriously. They're extraordinarily good at living up (or down) to our expectations of them, and such labels can often be painful to wear.
In this book, Caroline Hensby and Bernard Braham give children an opportunity to reframe their ADD/ADHD in a less pathological light, to see themselves as having potential and strengths, and to hear the sound of hope for the future. It's empowering, enlightening, and altogether healing.
That's why this is such an important book. For your child, in fact, it may be the most important book on ADD in the world...
