If you follow me on twitter you know I have much to say about our life with Autism.
Recently ADHD has been added and I had to figure this out more and how it impacts and challenges Hannah's life.
What would we need to learn and do to help with this added path. All we want is for her to have the tools to be able to succeed.

Understood.org has been a wealth of information and given us so many ways to help at home but also in the classroom.
The below gave me a great starting point to begin conversation with my husband and thus help our daughter .
At a Glance
- What happens at home can be a big help with learning and attention issues.
- Small changes in daily routines can help your child feel more prepared and confident at school.
- Many of these changes can be made without expensive equipment or extensive training.

There is still much to learn both about how it will or will not affect Hannah,
may be some challenges but with life there always are.
So much to read, do your home work carefully.
There is still so much old information out there and even professionals are still misinformed.
A wealth of information for me has also come from following ADHD adults on twitter and asking them questions as well as learning about their lives through their tweets.
Experience is very powerful, our kids will grow up.
