The cultural expectation for young girls is to be smart, sociable, and well-mannered. But what happens when they show symptoms of ADHD and experience social and learning challenges?ADHD is traditionally known as a “boy’s disorder,” and as a result, young boys are three times more likely to get diagnosed than girls. But research shows that the ratio of adult males and females with ADHD is close to one to one. So why aren’t young girls getting the same medical attention as young boys? The answer is in The ADHD Parenting Guide for Girls.

When you think of ADHD, you immediately think of impulsivity and hyperactivity. Well, this is only one type of ADHD, which shows up more often in boys. The other, less talked-about classification is inattentive ADHD, which largely affects girls.

The purpose of this guide is to shed light on the “invisible” symptoms of ADHD affecting girls aged three to 17, and provide targeted coping strategies to help them manage their symptoms better.

Over the span of 10 chapters, you will gain a better understanding of how to relate to and empathize with their children and support them in the following areas:

• Creating a structured environment consisting of set rules and routines to follow.
• Improving social skills helps build and maintain strong friendships.
• Learning the art of self-monitoring to monitor daydreaming and practice mindful awareness.
• Finally, caregivers will learn how to minimize undesirable behaviors using a positive parenting approach to discipline that can revolutionize the parent-child bond.

The challenges and opportunities of parenting girls with ADHD are completely different from those of parenting boys. This is why you need to adjust your parenting style to accommodate your child’s needs.

Equip yourself with the proper skills and strategies to offer your daughter the best start in life.
