Helping a child or an adult with ADHD is like solving a jigsaw puzzle.  You have to identify the "pieces" that are important for your child or for the adult.   The purpose of both this newsletter and my book, 12 Effective Ways to Help Your ADD/ADHD Child, is to address the biological, environmental and nutritional pieces of the puzzle!
