Opis

Raising Twice-Exceptional Children provides you with a roadmap to understand the complex makeup of your "gifted-plus," or twice-exceptional, child or teen. The book helps you understand your child's diagnosis, meet their social-emotional needs, build self-regulation skills and goal setting, and teach self-advocacy.

Recenzje

"In Raising Twice-Exceptional Children, Emily Kircher-Morris offers well-researched, compassionate, and expert advice to caregivers trying to navigate an educational system (and world) that often doesn't understand a neurodivergent, gifted child's needs. As a school counselor, I appreciate that she not only dives into the history of neurodiversity, but also provides parents with a toolkit of practical strategies that can help their kids acquire all the skills they need to stay confident and motivated, advocate for themselves, communicate effectively, and regulate their emotions."
