 Wish I had read the reviews Dec 09, 2003
What I wanted was some real information on HOW to homeschool my child with ADHD. If I wanted help making the desision to homeschool my child I would have searched for that. This book provides no real help in how to form a plan or curriculum. It has absoluetly nothing to say about how to help your child learn, and quite frankly, despite the title there are few references to any child with ADHD. I already know what it is, I already know what it does to my family, what I wanted was some real help, and this was NOT it.

 Need a "pep talk"?? Apr 07, 2002
By Sabrina Doster
"iambri"
This book is most useful for those parents considering removing their child from public school. It is mainly a "pep talk" for undecided parents. I ordered this book with the expectation that it would provide useful suggestions on how to reach my ADD daughter. I was searching for information on HOW TO TEACH an ADD child. It does have some useful information here and there but the book did not provide the information I was looking for.

Very Disappointed Apr 09, 2002
I purchased this book with hopes of finding some information in teaching my ADHD son. I have been homeschooling for 3 years now and their "start-up" advice, although useful for others, was of no help to me. Most other books that deal with ADD/ADHD focus on children in the public school setting. I set out to find a book specifically dealing with homeschool children. This book is very deceiving in its title and I am saddened that the author would use ADD as a lure to get people to buy her book. Especially homeschoolers, who are often on a very limited budget to begin with. It should be titled, "How to start homeschooling a child with special needs," and leave the ADD out of it. There are some very useful ideas for beginning homeschoolers, but if you are looking for "specific" guidance regarding ADD issues you will be very disappointed.

 I keep this book as reference and as support for what I do Mar 16, 2004
I've had this book for two years and I refer to it to support my decision to home school my PDD-nos/ADHD inattentive daughter. It was a difficult decision to home school. I felt lonely and continually tested by my decision to home school her after trying private and public schools. This book cheers me on and has helped me chose curriculum. I also recommend Sharon Hensley's book (home schooling for special needs child?) for more curriculum suggestions. We home schoolers must support each other's decision for choices and I feel these books have helped me. Good luck to all of us awsome parents who strive for the best for our kids!

Wonderful, run out and get it! Apr 02, 2002
I am homeschooling a child with Asperger's Syndrome. I have been searching for a book exactly like this one for two years. It gives advice and suggestions for the tricky questions that are not covered in 'regular' homeschooling books, such as "my homeschool group is not welcoming me because of my child's issues" or "how to balance what your special needs child needs with what the typically siblings need while homeschooling". I will refer to this book again and again for support, suggestions, and comfort knowing I am not alone on this homeschool journey, homeschooling my child with special needs. Don't be misled by the title, there is a nice spectrum of issues the children have in the book, not just ADD.
