Give Your ADD Teen a Chance: A
Guide for Parents of Teenagers With
Attention Deficit Disorder by Lynn
Weiss
The Best Add Book I've Ever Read!
PRACTICAL HELP FOR PARENTS OF ADD TEENS. Parenting
teenagers is never easy-especially if your teen suffers from Attention
Deficit Disorder (ADD). ADD adds complications and challenges to
adolescence that parents must understand in order to help their teens
succeed in high school and into adulthood. Give Your ADD Teen a
Chance provides parents with expert help by showing them how to
determine which issues are caused by normal teenage development, and
which are caused by ADD. It also looks specifically at the academic
challenges ADD teens face, offering tips for academic success. Finally,
the book enables parents to look objectively at their ADD teen, giving
guidelines for discipline, guidance, and responsibility. This book is

especially valuable because very little help has been available for parents
of teens with ADD. Dr. Weiss information and presentations are practical
and easy to read. Frustrated parents and their equally frustrated ADD
teens have been waiting for this book!-Angie Rose, Ph.D. Dr. Lynn
Weiss empowers us to listen to the cries of fear, frustration, and failure that
todays teens and parents experience in their trek to understand and work
through ADD. Lynns ability to share her own experiences with ADD invites
her readers to believe and trust their observations and intuition while
honoring the needs of the growing adolescent with ADD. Because of one
womans courage to speak, parents and teachers will gain understanding
and acceptance of a problem society has hidden.-Margaret Arnett, M.Ed.,
program coordinator for the Colorado Corrections Alternative Program,
Colorado Department of Corrections This excellent book, written for
parents with ADD adolescents, offers warmth, insight, information, and
strategies on how to understand, approach, and support their children. Dr.
Weiss examines the variables that intensify the complexity of development
for these teens transitioning into adulthood. Most important, she offers
hope and guidance to parents who are faced with the task of raising an
ADD teen in an ever-changing society.-Charles J. Karulak, Ed.D.,
headmaster, The Winston School, San Antonio
Personal Review: Give Your ADD Teen a Chance: A Guide for
Parents of Teenagers With Attention Deficit Disorder by Lynn
Weiss
Recently two of my four children were diagnosed with ADD. I began
reading everything I could on the subject. Often the information was
confusing, or presented in such a technical way as to be of little help.
Giving Your ADD Teen a Chance is presented clearly and with great
warmth. I felt good about my children's life. Ms. Weiss gives helpful,
relevant advice, loaded with common sense. I have
recommended this book to anyone I can find, including several mental
health professionals. If your child is diagnosed with ADD, whether or not
they have reached their teenage years, this is a MUST read.
