Does your child:

have difficulty remembering multi-step directions?
-
yell or argue with you over everyday requests like getting dressed, cleaning up, doing homework, coming to you when called, or sharing and turn-taking with siblings or friends?

Do you have to repeat yourself 100 times before your child listens?
Are you exhausted from always fighting with or disciplining your child?
