There are three parts of effective behavioral interventions for ADHD children—parenting training, school interventions, and child-focused treatments. Although working with teachers and the children themselves are critical in the vast majority of ADHD cases, teaching parents more effective ways of dealing with their children is the most important aspect of psychosocial treatment for ADHD. Ideally, parent, teacher, and child interventions must be integrated to yield the best outcome. Four points apply to all three parts: (1) always start with goals that the child can achieve and improve in small steps (e.g., “baby steps”); (2) always be consistent—across different times of the day, different settings, and different people; (3) ADHD is a chronic problem for the individual and treatments need to be implemented over the long haul—not just for a few months; and (4) teaching and learning new skills take time, and children’s improvement will be gradual with behavior modification. Characteristics of parent, teacher, and child interventions are listed below.
