Is it okay that his seven-year old son has ADHD? PERFECTLY NORMAL, The Blessings and Struggles of ADHD is a stay-at-home dad's poignant account of a battle with stereotypes, ingrained values and parental expectations, to overcome seemingly insurmountable roadblocks and discover the answer to that most important question. He and his wife had difficulty conceiving, and now, their intelligent and beautiful baby boy was a square-pegged child who refused to fit into a round-shaped world. After a half dozen failed attempts to find the right school that would keep their son on grade level with his friends, these parents are confronted with the ADHD diagnosis. Perhaps this dad will learn that the answer to his heart-rending riddle lay upon the road that led him to that moment in the first place. Is it okay that God created this beautiful son with ADHD? Perhaps it's more than just okay. Perhaps his son was created to be perfectly normal. Tackling the challenges associated with a child's ADHD can be daunting. There is emotionally charged confusion about terms like Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and debate about whether it even is a real disorder. There are decisions to make about whether ADHD medication, diet change or behavioral modifications are necessary. And, then there is the process of working with schools to set up an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) or 504 Plan, if that is appropriate for the child. All of this can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. PERFECTLY NORMAL is a must read for every parent facing these dilemmas, trying to understand their child's ADHD diagnosis, or gain perspective and strength BEFORE they begin working through their ADHD checklist to undertake the challenges that lie ahead.
