520    "As children grow, some of the terms listed on this book's
       front cover may be used to describe them on occasion. When
       there seems to be a recurrent pattern of one or more of 
       these types of behavior, however, something may be wrong. 
       As a parent, if you have noticed something "off" about the
       way your child has been acting, perhaps it's time to take 
       a closer look at what might actually going on--before it 
       gets worse. What to Do About Your Troubled Child is 
       designed to provide you with the information you need to 
       get to the bottom of the mystery. If a behavioral disorder
       is caught early enough and treated correctly, it can be 
       greatly lessened or even eliminated. Unfortunately, many 
       behavioral problems in children go undiagnosed for so long
       that they progress beyond the possibility of improvement. 
       This book is divided into two parts. Part One looks at six
       of the most common behavioral disorders. Each chapter 
       focuses on one disorder and includes a list of questions 
       intended to determine if your child exhibits enough of the
       tendencies associated with this disorder to warrant a 
       closer look. It then describes the symptoms and risk 
       factors of the problem, how it may be professionally 
       diagnosed, and traditional means of treatment, which 
       include behavioral therapy and medication. Part Two offers
       a detailed look at complementary approaches to treatment, 
       such as lifestyle changes, nutrition, and helpful programs
       and devices. Telling yourself that your child is bound to 
       grow out of certain troublesome behavior may be a way for 
       you to ignore the signs of a serious issue--one that 
       should be addressed. By the time your child reaches 
       adolescence, the disorder may be too far gone. Now is the 
       time for you to understand and do something about it. Now 
       is the time to let What to Do About Your Troubled Child be
       your guide"--|cProvided by publisher.
