Opis

Brandon Clark, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, discovered his professional purpose during a journey down the road less traveled: rehabilitation of children with behavior disorders. Clark artfully tackles the problems faced by children with special needs, highlighting the uphill battles these individuals face with America's education system and how society treats those with disabilities, all the while challenging the reader to take a closer look under the surface of behavior disorders. Clark leads the reader on a high speed chase, raising important questions all too often ignored. In doing so, he becomes a strong voice for the unsung heroes: the parents, educators, social workers, and mental and behavior health professionals who encounter these unique children in their lives. This is a collection of his first hand experiences with emotionally disturbed children. It's an enthralling account of the wildest events, the heartbreaking realities, the hilarious moments, and the tragic and true. His story spotlights one of America's most unrecognized problems -- the disabled youth. This is a must read for anyone who comes in contact with the afflicted and disadvantaged.
