About four years ago, my son was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD, Oppositional
Defiant Disorder. His behavior was increasingly difficult to manage at home and
when it finally manifested in school, my wife and I reluctantly submitted to
medications to control him. We were determined that the drugs were a temporary
fix; that we were going to find a permanent solution to our sons problems. We
spent many nights searching the Internet for books that could help us deal with
these issues. We ordered every book we thought appropriate. Finally, after
reading 20 books on ADD, ADHD, ODD and more, we came across "ADHD: A Path to
Success: A Revolutionary Theory and New Innovation in Drug-Free Therapy". The
"Drug-Free Therapy" wording in the title jumped out at us. We ordered two copies
and began our reading. It was clear that Dr. Weathers understood what our son
was experiencing and what the parents were feeling as well. His case studies and
success stories gave us a sense of hope. Most importantly was Dr. Weathers own
admission of being diagnosed as ADHD as a child and the frustrations he
experienced. His writing was simple and direct. Unlike a majority of the books
we read on the subject, Dr. Weathers was writing for those without a degree in
Psychology or medicine. His explanation of his therapy, CAER, clearly defined
the process. Once we completed our reading, we contacted Dr. Weathers via email
and then by phone. My wife and I decided that we would schedule an appointment
with Dr. Weathers. The end results could not have been better. It has been four
years since our visit and my son has not been on any medication since. He is
performing very well in school, has many friends and is in general, a very happy
and contented young man. Needless to say, his parents are thrilled with the
results. Dr. Weathers' book gave us the hope and the answers we were so
determined to find. |
