Raddy and TMI Grandma, I finally read "Right Brain Learners in a Left Brain World". It is terrific for my level of understanding, which is just at the beginning, but perhaps not for someone who is looking for solutions. It provides a lot of anecdotes. For eg, I'm 51% convinced my son has more ADD traits than not, although he doesn't seem to have trouble learning.
The book prompted me to ask my son if he has many concurrent thoughts. I was surprised by the answer - "I have speed flashes of moving pictures that go through my mind, like a menu with many options." No wonder he seems to have 10 different perspective to issues all at once. On the other hand, he can get disorganized as the horses can pull in different directions all at once. I'm telling my son to try to visualize his brain like a stadium light with many individual lamps. To focus, he has to train each lamp on to the object. He loves the visualizing! The novelty is working, at least for now
.
I'm plowing through the Mislabeled Child now. This one is tough work, but it holds possibilities for a more precise solution or at least a direct area of approach.
Will look to other books and let you know if I come across helpful ones.
