Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) continues to be a prevalent childhood diagnosis, for which parents seek treatment for their children. The purpose of the study was to examine the experiences of parents as they seek treatment for their child diagnosed with ADHD. This qualitative case study used Yin's theoretical framework and included participants from one county in a Northeastern state of the United States. The research findings have added to the psychological community by bringing to light parental experiences in seeking treatment and persistent challenges parents faced with school systems. Many participants felt schools were the most difficult part of their treatment seeking experiences, and reported frustration about not having 504 Accommodations implemented or resources provided.
This text makes a strong companion book for the university or collegiate level in education, psychology, social work, medical, and early childhood development fields. Students will learn the challenges faced by parents as they seek treatment for their children with ADHD and this will increase understanding, enhance compassion, while inform their practice with such families. It is a must have for those working in schools and community mental health. Educators interface with children and families on a daily basis who are diagnosed with or meet the criteria for ADHD. It is imperative that such personnel understand the challenges and stigma many parents experience and be well prepared in applying effective interventions to meet their needs.
