Synopsis

Parenting children with disabilities and other diagnoses can be challenging. In this book, Lynda candidly shares her experiences raising three children who have various disabilities and diagnoses, including Down syndrome, diabetes, ADD, dyslexia, life threatening allergies, mood disorder, severe behaviors, anxiety and eating disorder. She shares how to let go of stress, find the lessons, laugh and most importantly, learn to love through it all. Since Lynda has worked for over 20 years assisting individuals with disabilities find employment, she also provides tips to help our children be more employable. She covers all sorts of other topics too that we deal with as parents, including talking to our kids about sex, spirituality and even money. The most important thing she hopes you get from the book is to know that you are not alone in what you go through and that you can do this job called 'parenting', maybe not perfectly, but you can do it with love!
