This Month's Episode

Tuesday December 14th, 2010 at 2pm US Eastern Time
"Helping Kids Live With ADHD"
With Jody Pawel and David Zidar

If you've ever wondered...or worried...about whether your child (or a child you know and care about) might have ADHD, then you need to become an informed parent who won't rush to judgment, overreact, or be misled by well-meaning, but unreliable advisors.

Today on "Parents Tool Talk," Jody and special guest expert David Zidar will discuss the most common symptoms of ADD/ADHD, and offer practical skills parents can teach their children to help them improve problem areas such as:

• What can parents do to help improve their ADD child's difficulty in paying attention?
• How can parents help their ADHD child mange their hyperactivity?
• How can parents teach their ADD/ADHD child be less impulsive?

David Zidar has worked in child welfare for over 20 years. He started his career in Cleveland working in residential settings for severely troubled children. He was Vice President for residential services for the largest provider of residential care in Kentucky. He has a B.S.W. from Capital University (Columbus) and an M.S.S.A. from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, and completed the University of Louisville Certification in treatment of juvenile sexual offenders. You can learn more about David Zidar by visiting his web site, www.davezidar.com.

Note: CEUs are only available during the LIVE show.

• Participate by phone: call 1-347-205-9654. When you hear the pre-show music, press 1 on your telephone keypad to raise your hand. Chris will monitor your phone number to see if you are there the whole time.
  
  After the show, send an email to info@parentstoolshop.com, with your phone number and full name name, and we will reply verifying you were on the call.
  
  
• If listening on-line, check in using the BlogTalkRadio chat feature at the beginning of the show, then again halfway through and once more at the end so we know you're listening the whole time.
  
  After the show, send an email to info@parentstoolshop.com, with your full name and chat room name (Chris can help you know what this is); we will reply verifying you were in the chat room for the full duration of the show.
  

You can submit our return email for your CEU documentation.

(Non-Ohio foster parents can probably also get CEUs but they should probably check first.)
