Thanks! These are helpful. Was looking on Amazon and also saw Is it You, Me, or Adult ADD? by Gina Pera, which may also be a good one. There’s lots of information on how to raise ADD kids, and on how to raise kids if you have ADD, but not much directly addressing how to relate to a parent who has ADD! That’s a world unto itself!
You’re welcome, Sarah! The Pera book is great. Good luck and keep me posted!
