Uram addresses diverse parenting dilemmas with empathic, practical strategies. This book is rich in sensible advice for parents who face unique challenges in guiding their child while also trying to take care of themselves." <strong>--Thomas E. Brown, Ph.D., clinical psychologist, director of Brown Clinic for ADHD and Related Disorders and author of <em>ADHD and Asperger Syndrome in Smart Kids and Adults</em></strong></p> <p>"Michael Uram has written a fantastic book demystifying the diagnosis of Asperger's syndrome, while keeping the content easy to understand as well as positive and supportive. He offers wonderful examples of help that accompany all aspects of the challenges a parent faces while living with a child, adolescent, or young adult who is trying to navigate a world that often does not make sense. Having years of my own personal as well as professional experiences with students on the spectrum, I wish that this book was written decades ago. However, we are so fortunate that Michael Uram wrote it now." <strong>--Karen Lerner, educational therapist</strong></p> <p>"As a psychology professor for upwards of 20 years at Vanguard University, I have to say that Michael Uram 'nailed it!' If you're a parent or professional who's tired of the same old dance, get ready to learn a few new steps--real steps--that generate positive change. This book is packed with evidence-based strategies to help children thrive at home or school, whether they are in grade school or high school! Michael offers hope and practical tools to empower parents with children whose brains work in ways that differ from the dominant societal standards of 'normal.'
