A
young mother who we will call Samantha (not her real name) came to my
office the other day and started the conversation with the following: “I
just spoke to my 8 year old son’s teacher. She told me that she thinks
he should be tested for ADHD because of the difficulty he is having
concentrating in class. I don’t want him to be labeled at such a young
age, but I don’t want him to fail his year either. Can you help me?” For

A
father and his son came to see me the other day looking for a tutor. He
said, “My son is in Grade 5 and he is having a lot of trouble with math.
I was always terrible in math and hated it when I was in school, so I
guess he is just the same as me. I want him to do better than I did in
school. Can you help me?”For

young mother who we will call Jennifer (not her real name) came to my

help me?” For
