Dr. Kevin talks about the pros and cons of putting your child on concerta. The long lasting effects of concerta may have caught your attention, however a longer attention span does not mean that your child will comprehend information any better. In some cases medication has even brought down comprehension levels in children. Alternatives are a way to improve your child’s attention without the side effects of medication and with the right structure, can be beneficial beyond the pharmaceutical limitations of Concerta.

To raise awareness about non-hyperactive ADHD (what I call "Hidden ADHD") to help others who are struggling with it. I want them to know what they can do about it. I want them to know that they're not lazy, unmotivated, and willfully irresponsible. I want them to know they can realize their potential and create the life of their dreams.

Exercise is one of the most-suggested natural treatments for ADHD, and for good reason. Although experts agree that it’s not usually enough to replace stimulant medication for most people who need it, it does affect the brain in much the same way. Still, exercising regularly can be a challenge for those of us with ADHD -- so I cover some tips that can help!

Video games are mostly considered a fun pastime. But, these virtual worlds can also be a powerful learning tool for kids with thinking and learning differences. “Kids that play video games are more likely to be able to read and follow instructions than kids who do not play video games,” says our expert.
Watch as Jodi Gold, MD, a board-certified child, and adolescent psychiatrist and author of “Screen-Smart Parenting: How to Find Balance and Benefit in Your Child’s Use of Social Media, Apps, and Digital Devices,” weighs in on the pros and cons of video games for kids with ADHD. While there are a lot of benefits, there are a few extra challenges that parents of kids with ADHD should look out for.
While failure can be painful and inconvenient - it is a powerful teacher, that is, if you approach it with curiosity, without judgment and an eagerness to learn.
Here is the first of this 5 video series designed to show you how to live successfully with ADHD.
To watch them all, head over to www.erictivers.com/125strategiesvideo
James Tai didn’t notice his son’s ADHD symptoms in preschool. But teachers did. They approached James and his then wife, which led to his son getting diagnosed with ADHD at age 4. Since then, James has faced an internal struggle that many parents of kids with ADHD face: where to draw the line between discipline and letting go.
James also talks about how being Asian American impacts his parenting approach. And an incident on an airplane that awakened his deep empathy for his son.
