by Jerome Schultz
Jossey-Bass/Wiley
With thirty years experience as a clinical neuropsychologist, HMS psychology lecturer and former middle school teacher Jerome Schultz offers new insight into why children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and learning disabilities (LD) hate school. Nowhere to Hide shines light on the unrelenting consequences of chronic stress associated with ADHD and LD, and offers guidance for parents and teachers to help kids reduce anxiety and improve learning, behavior and self-esteem.
This book is meant to change the way parents and teachers think about why their children find school and homework so toxic. Nowhere to Hide includes rating scales, checklists, printable charts and practical strategies that help students to break the chronic stress cycle and to attain a newfound confidence that stems from competence.
