the part in here about ADHD is something that is very useful... It clears up a lot- does this child have ADHD or is s/he just a little too sugared up...
Not only did this help with my own questions about ADHD with my own child and help me figure out that it wasnt ADHD but also helped me with a Daycare child as well. Knowing what to look for really helps.
It was interesting to look around on the web site looking at what milestones they believed for age groups and what we have as a center for age groups. I noticed many are the same or very close to. so it looks like we seem to be on the right track for milestones.carolyn
This helped me with a childcare child-and gave me some more understanding on the subject with ADHD.
this section was great. Has anyone ever watched a child where you think he/she may have ADHD? How does one tell if the child is just not listening etc, or if a child truly has ADHD? My 8 year old does excellent in school however, when I ask her to go do something she will literally forget what her task was and I am wondering if this is ADHD. The predominant type? shannont
What you describe is not uncommon. Teach your child do finish your request before doing other things. That will help her get it done. When I get sidetracked, I forget things too.
This was an interesting topic for me. Knowing what to watch for and learning how to deal with a child you suspect has ADHD was very helpful. Thank you.
I am excited that I get to be a part of young child's development. That by helping these children now we are affecting there social, emotional and physical life later on, down the road. It is always wonderful to work with kids and see them grow and be apart of that process.
Also being reminded in the one the articles that each child matters. Each is an individual. It gets hard sometimes working with 12children not to just group them all together and assume things in a group. But actually taking time for each child and meeting the needs as best as possible with so many at once demanding attention. Rachel Madsen

This section was very helpful with information I could use regarding our children with ADHD at our center.
I found it very helpful that there are links under this article that cater to all different phases of parenting. There is a Hanna's house link for children up to age six months, and for different Disease Center locations such as Ontario, Canada, and London. I wonder if it is possible to come up with a table of links that lists the relevant information in terms of different categories and locations that subscribe to the CDC philosophy on child development?
This section was helpful in showing the different milestones for older children and the things to watch for.There were many sites recommened books and resources to refer to.
I really liked: what is to much pressure for preschoolers, why creative play, what to expect in preschool, do we push our preschoolers to much...
Lots of helpful information of what to look for with adhd, my oldest son tends to get off task alot and forget what he doing or do many things at once my mom says hes just being a kids but something seems to be a little off to me, what do you think?
