ADHD and Juvenile Justice: Accused but not Sentenced

Woops! Your ADHD teen is in trouble with the law…  innocent until proven guilty, right?  That might not always be the case when ADHD traits manifest in behavior, because ADHD lends the human element to sentence your teen without the facts.  In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, Rob Tudisco, criminal defense attorney, addresses the need to get your teen out of the line of fire and why your attorney, the prosecuting attorney, and the judge need to be educated around the reality of ADHD.  Listen in with host Jeff Copper and co-host Kirsten Milliken for this illuminating discussion around why your teen's school should be involved, as well as the key role that Section 504 and IEP plans can play in averting jail in favor of alternative programs or simply a return to school with more favorable accommodations.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD), including managing symptoms of attention deficit disorder, adults with ADD, or adults who have children with ADHD. Attention Talk Radio, hosted by attention coach Jeff Copper, is designed to help adults and children (particularly those diagnosed with or impacted by attention deficit disorder or its symptoms) in life or business who are stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated. It will help adults and children get unstuck and moving forward by helping to open their minds and pay attention to what works.
