Parenting is like trying to fold a fitted sheet—no matter how many tutorials you watch or how many times you've done it before, it never seems to go quite as planned. "Parenting ADHD Children with Confidence" by Teri Pisciotta offers a comprehensive guide for parents navigating the complexities of raising children with ADHD. The book is written clearly, and all the ideas presented are easy to implement in the daily life of a person who is overwhelmed. For example, Pisciotta underlines the need to create a timetable and use graphic organizers to enhance memory and increase the organization of tasks. That way, the children understand what is expected of them and vice versa, hence minimizing anxiety, for instance, during a change of lessons.

I see this book as a lifesaver, especially for parents and teachers struggling with raising ADHD children. Pisciotta is a good writer and does an excellent job of explaining things in a friendly, empathetic way. She supports her work with practical and comprehensible cases and stories; this makes the reader feel more connected. This approach not only informs but also prepares parents, especially in the management of children, as they develop more confidence in handling them. I also like comic pictures inserted in the book together with the small quotes beneath them, as they lighten up the overall mood while reinforcing important concepts.

The strength of this book lies in its practicality and helpful tips; it is written to build up confidence both for parents and children. The formatting is good, the chapters are well structured and this aspect makes it easy to read. I did not point out any error and I generally have no complaints about the book: the book is flawless. I rate this book five out of five stars because of the usability and applicability of advice provided by the authors, with hardly any professional jargon and a lot of focus on ‘real life’ scenarios that should help most busy, time-starved parents.

Thus, "Parenting ADHD Children with Confidence" is a useful and inspiring book for those who want to build a positive home environment for children with ADHD. This book’s practical tools, along with Pisciotta’s parent-focused perspective, make this book essential for anyone going through the ADHD experience. I highly recommend it to parents and teachers of ADHD children.

This sounds like an excellent book for parents wanting to do their best for children with ADHD. The review describes the language used as easy to read and not full of jargon which can prevent people understanding. A book that is clearly written and has empathy is the sort of book that parents would like.
