Possible Cause of ADHD: Bisphenol-A

October 15, 2011 By Y3K

Kids toys and bottles containing bisphenol-A may be linked to health problems. According to some studies, bisphenol-A exposure even at low doses may be connected with ADHD, brain damage, altered immune system, obesity, breast cancer and prostate cancer. Bisphenol-A in children’s items is enough of a concern that legislation has been filed in Massachusetts to ban the manufacture or sale childcare articles with this chemical.

October 5, 2011 By Y3K

When fighting for special education accommodations and services, examine the situation before you act impulsively. Have all your facts ready to go to counter their refusal to help.

Treating ADD, ADHD & Dyslexia Without Medication Side Effects

October 1, 2011 By Y3K

Other options can be explored first that treat the underlying problem without the use of drugs. We have a 5 page report on how to help people with ADD, ADHD & dyslexia without medication.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home Golden Rule for Living: Fight Prevention

September 21, 2011 By Y3K

Y3K Tutor In Your Home Golden Rule for Living: If you hurt someone accidentally, let them know it was an accident and apologize.

Most fights occur because this rule is not followed. Kids often fight others because they think that the other kid is attacking them. The reality often times is the “attacker” accidentally hurt the “victim” and never acknowledged that it was accidental. The “victim” then retaliates and attacks the “attacker”. The “attacker” then feels that they are being attacked. At this point major fights can occur. The simple solution is to recognize a mistake happened and apologize for it.
