What can I do to help my daughter concentrate better?
First, ascertain why she is not concentrating. Then, if she has a reason, address this issue. If there is no good reason ask her what would make her focus more. If reasonable, follow through with it. Otherwise speak to your pediatrician to see if ADD may be plying a role, or any other medical situation. Richard Wanderman READ MORE
