 "The WatchMinder3 looks like a sports watch, so Jason didn’t mind wearing it to school...The vibrating alarm nudges him out of his daydreams--at least for a few minutes." - Proud Parent

 "My son thinks that it has been very helpful.  I also received a note from one of his teachers telling about the change that she has noticed in his behavior.  She describes him as more mature." – Proud Parent
