Call ADHD coach Jeff Copper (http://digcoaching.com) crazy, but does anyone else see the carnage and fallout from the glass wall ADHD teens slam into on their 18th birthday?

Can’t anyone else see the insanity of it all? In this episode, Jeff shares excerpts from his interviews with Neil Peterson, founder of the Edge Foundation, and Theresa Maitland, ADHD/LD specialist at UNC Chapel Hill, as well as Dr. Timothy Willens, Dr. Russell Barkley, and Dr. Clifford Sussman, as he puts a spotlight on what’s broken.

If you’re mad as hell and don’t want to take it anymore, this is a show that’s meant for you.
