The two most essential elements in disciplining the ADD / ADHD Child

Put simply, there are two parts to tackling any behavioral
problem:
1. Encouraging the behavior you want through rewards,
praise, or attention and
2. Reducing the behavior you don't with clear, consistent
rules and quick punishments.


Children with ADHD thrive on consistency and routines, so
to improve the chances of good behavior, let them keep to their
routine, such as getting up, eating or leaving for school at the
same time each day.

The most effective way of enforcing rules is to decide on
them together with your child - so agree in advance things such
as bedtimes, how long friends can come over and play for, etc.
