“One day Yair (pseudonym) came home and said he had a horrible test at school. I just went to my bedroom, closed the door and cried," says Ruthie (pseudonym), the mother of 15 year old Yair who has attention deficit disorder.
Ruthie says that Yair is a talented boy, and she doubts is anyone knows what he is going through in order to succeed. He spends many hours studying, much more than the average student, he gives up on spending time with his friends and the price he and his parents are forced to pay is very high.
“No one knows that I have copy Yair's exercises to his notebook so that he will not have to mess around on the technical side. No one is aware of the anger and tensions that were at home and even the harsh feelings that I had: how was such a child born to me. "
From the time Ruthie underwent the parents coaching process, she views life differently; she has tools that help her in dealing with her son’s difficulties, life at home changed. Ruthie attributes the change to the parents coaching process she went through.
“During the coaching process I experienced a kind of self-journey. I acquired tools, and mainly the ability to accept my children as they are. This journey affected the climate at home. If once the atmosphere was dark and saturated with anger, today the atmosphere at home is usually calm and pleasant. "
