The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of mother management training on parenting styles and attention deficit /hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Symptoms in Children. This research was done through a quasi-experimental design of pre test- post test with equivalent groups. Twenty-six schools were selected randomly in Behbahan. Teacher/parent forms of CSI-4 students were utilized to diagnose ADHD. Participants included 40 students who met ADHD criteria, and randomly assigned into 2 experimental and control groups. The experimental mother’s group was invited to participate in training sessions. The training package was based on Barkley (1997). The control group received no training. MANCOVA analysis showed some significant differences in improvement of parenting styles and decreasing the symptoms of children with ADHD. Accordingly, we can conclude that mother management training can be useful in helping these mothers and their children with ADHD.

Mental Retardations occure secondary to genetics, developmental, acquired or combination of these causes (Sadock, 2007).
