How can I help other people notice good behavior in my child with ADHD?

Make sure you explain good behavior as being typical of who your child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) really is. Some guidelines to help you do this are listed below. Rather than limiting explanations to a particular situation, you will want to explain good behavior as typical across many domains to yourself and others.

Seek the internal, not external, causes of behavior See the global, not the situational Understand that it's permanent, not temporary Find the positive, praise the positiveAs you start getting in the habit of looking for good behavior, it will become easier and easier to do. Each time your child completes a project, you can make sure to notice it and tell her that she is a focused and highly motivated person. By explaining her successes as being essentially who she is, she will begin to believe it and will act in ways consistent with these core beliefs.

You can also improve behavior and advocate for your child by offering her and her teacher examples of other situations in which she showed similar behaviors. You are in effect saying that this positive behavior transcends this one situation, whether it is in school, working on a creative project, or participating in a team commitment. In addition to pointing out as many settings as possible where you have observed this positive behavior, you can comment on how often you have noticed similar behavior.

In short, you want to present a positive representation of your child's behavior for yourself, your child, and your child's teachers, friends, and family, reminding them and yourself that she behaves well many times and in many places.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
