The Best Books About Raising A Developmentally Disabled Child

By Jaclyn Hurley


Families of special needs children face a host of additional challenges. For some families it can really bring them together but for others it seems to tear them apart. Finding ways to cope is the key to success and learning from others really is one of the best ways to deal with this life challenge in a positive way. Books about raising a developmentally disabled child can be very helpful and offer a multitude of resources.

Most people today buy their reading material on line from huge stores like Amazon. This gives them access to literally tens of thousands of titles, many of which can be purchased used at very reduced prices. In addition customer reviews are always available and can be very helpful in making a decision on which book to buy.

Many people shop for a book on line because it is fast and cost effective. There is also the chance to read other buyers reviews before purchasing the book. More and more customers are taking the time to post their comments after reading the book so that others can get a good idea what it is about and if they think they will find it useful.

It is also important to avoid reading informative books that are too old or out of date. Research is changing fast and even something from ten years ago may contain out of date information. Amazon is one of the best places to look for any book. Shopping is quick and easy with so many titles to choose from.

The parents often feel over whelmed and that they have lost their ability to have a life. Everything has to revolve around the needs of the child and stress levels rise very quickly. The first few years are often the most critical as everyone adjusts to the new situation.

Bus Girl is a collection of twenty five poems by Gretchen Josephson a young woman with Down Syndrome. They are characterised by their bold and practical take on life, family and friends. They are both uplifting and beautifully written.

The addition of any child to a family changes the dynamic, but having a baby with a disability changes things even more. Parents are often worried about the effect it might have on their other children. Being open and discussing these concerns is very important. The other children should always be given the opportunity to talk freely about their sibling's issues and how it might affect them.

Patrick Schwarz's work entitled From Disability to Possibility: The Power of the Inclusive Classroom is a must read for parents of school age children with disabilities. Schwarz talks about what works and what does not providing an enormous help to parents and educators.

Most parents worry about who will care for their son or daughter when they are gone. Getting good practical information is crucial. A book that deals with the legal implications of guardianship and employment opportunities can be very useful.
