By Kirsten Milliken, PhD Do you remember finding money on the ground when you were a kid?

My Lucky Day

If you lived in a more rural area, it may not have happened often. But I remember finding money all the time when I was a kid. Not just coins—dollars! I can’t remember the last time this happened to me. Leading up to this serendipity, I was spending time with a friend of mine who also believes, as I do, that our attitude influences our destiny. After my visit with my friend, I went shopping in downtown Portland.

The next morning I went to a megastore where the lines at the checkout were mega-long. On my last stop of the morning, I went to a store that carries a type of gum I like that you can only get during the holidays. My life is charmed! Got a story to share?

Since 2006, the CHADD Parent to Parent Program has certified hundreds of parents, counselors, ADHD coaches, and more – to provide education and support to families affected by ADHD. Because of overwhelming response from trainers who have successfully completed the program, CHADD is now offering an opportunity for certified trainers to use CHADD’s successful business model to train others and make additional money for their ADHD businesses.

What does that mean? Simply – once you become a licensed partner, you can train families as part of your ADHD practice rather than as a volunteer for the first time. You can use the CHADD P2P Certified Teacher Logo and our cobranded marketing and training materials to promote classes, receive ongoing training in the newest ADHD research and treatment information, and receive support from CHADD to spread the word. Benefits of Becoming a Licensed Partner:

Acetaminophen, Pregnancy, and ADHD. Guest blog by Max Wiznitzer, MD Newly published in JAMA Pediatrics, this is a study of mothers’ use of acetaminophen during pregnancy and the subsequent development of ADHD-like behavioral problems in their children. The data were taken from the Danish National Birth Cohort, which recorded information for sixty percent of pregnant women during the years 1996-2002, during and six months after pregnancy. Later, information was obtained about the mothers’ and fathers’ behavioral problems during childhood and about their children’s behavior, presence of hyperkinetic disorder (a form of ADHD), and stimulant prescriptions. The group of children numbered more than 40,000. What is the significance of this study?

What does this mean for the pregnant woman? Max Wiznitzer, MD, is the director of the Rainbow Autism Center at Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital in Cleveland.
