CAPTAIN
CHAOS
A personal account of dealing with an ADHD child.
I always knew he was different. My gregarious,
impulsive, noisy, affectionate boy. I know he hates
that he is different; this child who can evoke pride,
dislike, joy, frustration, laughter and tears within
the space of an hour! He burst into this world screaming
and squirming and still enters a room at full speed,
chattering away even before he sees you. |

Your
child and food - the myths and the facts
There are as many opinions on how to feed children
as there are parents and there seems to be a scientific

Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder ADHD
Ten years ago I had never even heard of ADHD. Today
it is not uncommon to have at least one child diagnosed
with ADHD in every class. There are ten qualified
teachers in our organisation from around the globe

and learning about ADHD, the most common behavioural
disorder in childhood. |

excercise
and children's health
Regular exercise is an important health maintenance
strategy for children and adolescents. It facilitates
weight control; helps strengthen bones, and can
reduce cardiovascular risk factors. Mental health
may also benefit. An active childhood may also lay
the groundwork for a lifetime of fitness. Physicians
are in an important position to assess children's
weight status and activity levels during a routine
physical exam. |

Exercise: Always
Good
Exercise is beneficial for everybody. For children,
it can pay double: increasing vitality now while building
the foundation for a healthy future. Active youngsters
are stronger, leaner, and fitter. |
