Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are increasingly common diagnoses. There is a great deal of controversy regarding what actually consitutes an ADD/ADHD diagnosis, and whether some degree of these 'conditions' are actually normal and appropriate for a child to experience. Children with ADD/ADHD are often treated using conventional prescription medications; while there is a place for prescription medication in certain cases of ADD, careful consideration should be taken regarding possible side effects and cautions.

There are also alternative treatment options available for children with attention deficit disorder. Making simple changes in diet, sleep, exercise and routine can also help. Limiting sugar intake, providing regular access to whole fruits and vegetables (not just juice!), completely avoiding soft drinks (even diet soft drinks) and providing a regular eating schedule can be of benefit. Ample outdoor play has been found to be of benefit for many children with ADD-like symptoms, as well as providing the limit of a regular bedtime schedule. Even trying more involved approaches like incorporating relaxation therapies such as guided imagery, meditation techniques, or yoga can be beneficial.
