its true

growing up in southern florida, Diana Hunter was one of my grandmother's best friends, so I hung out with her kids a lot, at home and in school. i also remember when she was writing the book, (although i was clueless until i picked it up in the library) what i have to say is that everything in this book is sincere. her son, Brendon (on the cover) was just as ADD as me, (believe me I was a handful!!) and she had no problems using these methods with him. I, given the drug, had significantly more problems. it's a great book written by a great woman. :)

Let's stop drugging our children!

The Ritalin Free child is a book that I have read and recommended to everyone I've met as a volunteer in the kindergarten through fourth grade classroom. Working with children on a daily basis, I see first hand how many of these children have had total changes in their behavior just by addressing the foods that they eat. This book has not only background information with regard to the drug ritalin and its many side effects, but also gives key instruction on how to manage your child's behavior without the use of drugs, preferring instead the natural mode of delivery being that of healthy foods and herbal remedies designed to encourage good health rather than an artificially stimulated child. Anyone buying this book will be thankful that at last, a book containing information designed to help parents help their children in a natural and healthy way rather than encouraging them to continue to medicate with potentially harmful chemicals. I say Amen to Diana Hunter's philosophy and hope that in the future, all parents seek other, more healthy ways to help their child adjust to the world in which we all live, rather than accepting the social directive of the times. Be aware!

I now need a third copy

I saw Diana in person at an Early Childhood Conference, bought her book and have benefited greatly by the information. Strange thing though... I have loaned out two copies to friends with children on ritilin and the book isn't one to make it back, seems it is a good reference for ongoing parenting of a child exhibiting symptoms of ADHD. Many useful tips and I recomend the book.

A helpful guide to raising a hyperactive child

The Ritalin-Free Child is filled with helpful thoughts and insights into dealing with this disorder.Written in plain english and not technical jargon, so anyone can grasp these useful suggestions and use them in their day to day struggles in dealing with this disorder without medication. Should be a mandatory read for every parent with or without an ADHD child.
