Successfully Launching into Young Adulthood with ADHD Firsthand Guidance for Parents and Educators Supporting Children with Neurodevelopmental Differences

"This superb guidebook deals with the largely unaddressed topic of helping parents assist their emerging adults into independence. All the issues a parent and their teen/young adults will confront in this transition are here, are well covered, and loaded with sound advice on how to address them. The authors have decades of experience in helping families, teens, and young adults with ADHD through this phase of life and, fortunately they have chosen to share all their wisdom with you here. There is no better book on this topic."

Russell A. Barkley, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Virginia Commonwealth University Medical School, USA

"The topics presented Successfully Launching into Young Adulthood are so on target for teens and adults as they enter the real world, which may not always be understanding of their needs. With excellent guidance and practical strategies to help parents support their adolescence as they navigate to transition, this book describes a multitude of postsecondary options and an accurate assessment of the tools a student needs to be successful. I found the honest experience of two parents who have been there, done that, to be exhilarating, encouraging, and most helpful."

"Finally, a book for parents who need help guiding our kids as they navigate the transition into adulthood and independence. The authors provide excellent information on next steps after high school graduation, including challenges, solutions, and resources. As mothers of sons with ADHD, Dendy and Hughes speak from their rich personal and professional experiences. The authors give us hope for the future of our kids, and assurances that we can survive the struggle. I highly recommend this book."
