Giving Them What They Need

All children need nurturing, love, and acceptance for who they are. Some children need a bit more help, and that's where this book shines. Parents know that children are like sponges; they pick up and absorb so much information. Developing skills in learning, communication, self-esteem, independence, etc., are all covered in this book. How to behave in different situations are key, as well. The chapter on technology was also eye-opening. Computer programs have a wonderful capacity to go at the rate the child learns without the added pressure of their classmates looking onward. Whether the child is in a wheelchair, wears prosthetics, or has a hearing aid, they can learn as well as any other child, and this book shows you how.
