Through this usefull site i want to know school for my nephew IN JAIPUR who is suffering with ADHD. No private or govt. school is ready to admit him,due to his impusive/ sometime destructive nature.

I think meditation is one of the better treatment process for adult adhd/add.As add is a mind and brain related problem, so meditation can largely contribute in it.
