Is it attention deficit disorder– or dad deficit disorder? In his book Raising Boys, Steve Biddulph  [BID-dulf]  tells a powerful story about a dad named Don. Don’s son was diagnosed with “attention deficit disorder.” This was years ago, before ADD knowledge was so widespread, so Don misunderstood the diagnosis. He thought it meant that his son simply needed more attention. When school was out, Don started taking his son with him on his truck driving routes. Within months, his son showed remarkable behavior improvement– and even came off his ADD medication. Many ADD diagnoses are very legitimate. But it’s likely that your son is also deficient in attention from you. Take some time today to put your phone down and give your boy some quality time.
