Within the first ten minutes of watching I felt like I was looking at my children with a brand new set of eyes. Informative and inspiring, the fact that the information and guidance is coming from not just a professional prospective but a personal one really makes the difference. I immediately saw where and why I was struggling to get through to my kids. I applied some of the suggested techniques the very same day with my children and the response was immediate and amazing. I’ve watched this a few times now and have been looking into some of the other suggested resources on the list provided at the end of the video and I have to say that for the first time since our diagnosis I feel like we aren’t just surviving – we’re thriving!

My daughter was just diagnosed with ADD. This was very very helpful

Hi, I am a mom of 2 wonderful kids ages 5 and 3. I found your video on amazon ADHD ODD reaching teaching and managing. It was the first research I had done besides calling many and attending a few visits to counselors and my sons pediatrician. I can’t thank you enough for making that video. We live in Las Vegas and we have not been able to find a good counselor or psychiatrist but we are making great progress now that I am more loving and supportive and took all the negative things and threw them away.
I’m sure you are a busy man so I’l get to my question. Where can i find those characters you showed in the video – the monster guy that “steals you away from the group or tasks? My son could understand that better than any other way I can think of. He is very bright and lives in his imagination. Sometimes it’s hard to get him to come back to reality. I want to use those characters to help him stay on task in a creative way that he could enjoy thinking about. I looked on the forms part of your site and couldn’t find them (i did find many other things that will be so helpful and inspiring to our family. Hope you are enjoying life
All our gratitude

Life Changing Information!

Thank you so much for this video! We have been to many doctors, counselors, and therapists and none have been near as helpful as this video! I finally understand what I (and his school) are doing wrong and how to fix it. This gave us hope. I have spent the last 2 months trying to repair the damage done to my son’s self esteem and trust and have seen good results. I wish I had found this last year. Now with this video we have direction and resources. We have tons of work to do but now I look forward to all of it. This information is extremely valuable and important to any family struggling with adhd odd children. I was in tears watching this. Thank you. -Mom of a 5 and 3 year old.
Autism/Asperger: Understanding from the Inside Out

Autism is an increasing problem in our society. Regardless of where you believe it comes from, helping our spectrum kids feel connected and integrated into life is every parent’s hope.

This video is made with the parent of an Autism kid in mind. Practical, kind, and effective. Well worth your time. It opened my eyes.

There is so much misinformation in the press these days, that it is great to get a clear understanding of the issue

Well Made Documentary! By (Deleted) on May 30, 2014
Another well made documentary about Autism and ASD! I would watch it again! I Enjoyed it very much! Audio and picture were clear and audible!

This video has a tremendous amount of information and resources packed into it. The interviews with the children helped my understand a lot about the school experience of a student on the spectrum. An index and chapters would be helpful so I can go back and repeat sections I’d like to review.

Gifted Child

It doesn’t have hd or captions. And it is too expensive to buy. But it is still an excellent video in understanding people who may seem different.

Great video to help parents of gifted children understand the realities of the blessings and challenges of having a gifted child.
Anxiety and Children

Is there a more universal topic of human nature than this one? All kids deal with anxiety, and learning how to manage the stressors of life is one of the most important life skills you can give your kids. In this easy to understand video, Brad teaches parents, with easy instructions, how to equip kids with better coping skills. Inner peace. What a gift.

Digital Culture and Child Development

As a parent, I really appreciate the perspective in this educational video. So often we over utilize video games, TV, and movies as baby sitters for our kids, instead of helping them experience real world connectivity. This video helped me to see the distinctions between positive digital media influences and negative. It will give you real world strategies for help you guide your children through healthier, happier lives in this age of digital media.

Self-esteem, Self-talk, and Self-control

Honestly, I needed to hear some of what Brad teaches in this video! Replacing negative thoughts with positive ones is a skill that can be learned regardless of age or stage in life. What makes this video so great is that Brad presents tools and resources for teaching these most basic skills to kids of all levels. Excellent resource. Highly recommended.

Behavior Management at it’s Best

So many parenting resources focus on negative reward systems, and interventions at the moment of need for correction. In this video, Brad shows how positive reinforcement when the child is doing the behaviors you LIKE to see, is so much more helpful than correcting bad behaviors (and less stressful on a harried mommy!) Great positive teaching video, and it really works! (I even use it on my husband.)

Brad does a great job of presenting the information, then giving specific examples of what to do. “Your words become what they think they are.” I love this because it reminds me that how I approach a situation and the words I choose is so important.
MANY THANKS!!!!!!!!

Sibling Rivalry

If you are a parent of more than one child, then you know what a difficult problem this can be in your home. Brad tackles this subject with practical advice and great knowledge of the subject. More importantly, his techniques get results. I had the feeling he was talking to me directly and sharing the secrets that he and other counselors use when dealing with difficult kids. What a cool idea to bring these ideas directly to parents at an affordable price!

Anger and Children

Sometimes anger is just anger. In a world where we are quick to assign diagnostic disorder names to every undesirable behavior (ADD, ADHD, ODD) sometimes it’s good to realize that sometimes we are just being human. This is a great video that de-mystifies anger in children and gives real life tools for helping families live happier, healthier lives.
