About this title: This parenting guide asserts that psychiatrists often misdiagnose early-onset bipolar disorder as attention-deficit disorder or depression, and in turn, prescribe inappropriate treatment--medicines that can actually exacerbate the condition. Through personal stories and practical suggestions, the authors tell parents how to understand and help children with this disorder.

"Very informative book on a very scary subject. Full of good advice for parents facing this kind of problem. Made me fill a little relieved about my situation. I don't think I've got to worry about this yet. Anyway, I think that this would be a very valuable source book for parents, teachers, therapists, etc."
"This book is clearly a polemic. The husband-wife Papalos pair have definitely contributed to the massive increase in the diagnosis of bipolar disorder in children in the past 15yrs due to their assertion that a good percentage of children have this disorder (you can tell because they are hyper sometimes, crave sugar and sometimes get angry when you say 'no'... I may be exaggerating a little, but... the sale of something like over 200,000 copies of this book has made an impact. BUT, while I do believe that bipolar disorder is frequently overdiagnosed in children, if you read this book while thinking about those kids that actually DO have this disorder, it is very informative."
"This book is great for learning some of the medical lingo... It was very informing as well. Some things listed I already knew, some I didn't. I'm sure there are newer books out there now that pediatric bipolar has been around longer. But this was still a good book and explained things well."
