What is Parent Management Training?
This program is for parents of children ages 4-12. It targets non-compliance and defiant behaviours such as those often seen with ADD or ADHD. There are 10 steps to the core parent training. Parents will understand the nature of ADHD and oppositional behaviours.
A goal is for parents and children to improve their relationship, to increase competence and confidence of both parents and children and for the family to appreciate each other more as co-operation improves.
