Life With ADHD Inattentive Kids
|
Is this your Kid? He loses stuff. She stares into space.
He takes hours to do simple chores. Homework never ends. One day she makes
A's and the next fails the same subject. He's the personification of
disorganization. But he's not hyperactive. And she really isn't a
discipline problem. Still, last week you found the ketchup in the medicine cabinet. Maybe it's ADHD Inattentive. Labeled lazy, unmotivated, or maybe just a little bit 'slow', these children often fall through the cracks. Yet perhaps, just like their hyperactive classmates, there is a chemical imbalance in their brain that is causing them to not pay attention. They aren't lazy, or unmotivated, and they're certainly not stupid. Many of these children have what is called Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Inattentive type. It's like a wire is not quite connected in their brain. Lots of children have ADHD, but most of them have hyperactivity along with inattention. As a result, the main focus of most publications on ADHD is on children who have hyperactivity and/or impulsivity along with the inattention. This website is dedicated to the parents of children who endear themselves to us with their creativity, humor, good nature, and spontaneity, yet infuriate us with their inability to stay organized and on task. We know lots of kids like this, because we live with them. We love them, and we want them to reach their potential. Since there aren't a lot of places dedicated to ADHD/Inattentive, we started this website, and named it "Who Put the Ketchup in the Medicine Cabinet?". We offer information, ideas, product recommendations, and an opportunity to meet other kids like yours. We hope this website will help you as you help your children learn to help themselves.
