How can I help my child manage his time better?

ADHD children & the concept of time

Time is an elastic concept for people with ADHD ADD. It either drags by, or races at the speed of light. Have your attention deficit child guess how long a task will take before he begins. Then quietly observe how long it really takes. Be careful not to turn this into a race. Keeping a record of tasks and the time they take can provide you and your child with valuable information useful for planning and scheduling.
