Youngsters with ADHD: Avoiding the Criminal Justice System

In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, co-hosts Jeff Copper and Kirsten Milliken interview Dr. Phil Anderton, an expert from the criminal justice system, on helping youngsters with ADHD avoid the criminal justice system.  The conversation includes discussions around markers that represent important times, called tipping points, when those with ADHD are vulnerable and could head down the wrong path. They discuss how parents can be proactive to catch these things before they happen and identify resources that are available to help parents.  Finally, they discuss what to do after an unexpected call from someone in the criminal justice system.  If you are a parent of an ADHD adolescent, this episode is a must for you.
