Mike’s book is a much-needed departure from the generic strategies and vague explanations that fill most executive function books. Mike offers something different—practical, concrete tools that actually make sense for today’s busy families. This isn’t theory; it’s real-world help written by someone who understands how ADHD affects everyday life. If you're tired of reading the same recycled advice and want a guide that actually helps your child build meaningful skills, this is the book to read.

Mike simultaneously delivers hope and actual solutions, while being brutally honest, direct, and right.” His passionate guidance shakes us out of our social-media-induced, pseudo-scientific trance long enough to realize that yes, parenting is hard; parenting a kid with ADHD is probably harder; screen use makes it even worse; and the strategies to help our kids-- all of them-- requires hard work. As someone who shares my concerns about excessive screen use, especially for school, Mike doesn't shy away from telling parents to remove (most) screens, and he's part of a growing movement to fight back on school-issued internet-connected devices.

Having learned so much from Mike McLeod over the years, I know firsthand the depth of his expertise and the care he brings to families navigating ADHD. The Executive Function Playbook offers a clear, compassionate, and research-based roadmap that turns daily struggles into opportunities for growth and success.

Mike McLeod offers hope for parents of kids struggling with ADHD. I’m definitely going to implement his concrete, day-to-day advice to help my son succeed.
