Your child may also have feelings of frustration, anger, sadness, or shame as a result of their learning differences. As a parent, it hurts to see your child struggle. But the good news is that there are proven-effective strategies <i>you</i> can learn to help your child be their best. This book will show you how.</p><p><i>Helping Your Child with Language-Based Learning Disabilities </i>outlines an attachment-based approach to help your child succeed based in the latest research. This research indicates that a secure attachment relationship between you and your child actually optimizes their learning ability by enhancing motivation, regulating anxiety, and triggering neuroplasticity. In this book, you'll discover why it's so important to accurately assess your child, find new perspectives on LBLDs based on the most current studies, and discover tips and strategies for navigating school, home life, and your child's future. Most importantly, you'll learn how your own special bond with your child can help spark their interest in reading, writing, and math.</p><p>Every child is unique--and every child learns in his or her own way. With this groundbreaking guide, you'll be able to help <i>your</i> child thrive, in school and life.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Helping Your Child with Language-Based Learning Disabilities</i> is a great resource for parents and education professionals. Franklin provides the understanding (and tools) necessary for parents to more effectively meet the learning needs of their children. The other great accomplishment of this book is its focus on education as a means to an end--that a positive educational experience can help children grow into adults who are successful and who thrive in their life pursuits." <br> --<b>Michael E. Spagna, PhD</b>, provost and vice president of academic affairs at California State University, Dominguez Hills--Michael E. Spagna, PhD<br><br>"Children who struggle with language-related learning issues, and their families, face the daunting prospect of navigating an education system that is not aligned to their unique neurobiological profiles. In this gem of a book, Franklin arms parents with the knowledge and strategies they need to support and advocate for their unique child--not just in learning to read or calculate but in developing to their full potential as a whole and happy human being. There are no quick fixes or magic beans here--the information presented amounts to a practical, reliable, and sensitively written guide." <br> --<b>Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, PhD</b>, professor of education at the University of Southern California (USC) Rossier School of Education, associate professor of psychology at USC's Brain and Creativity Institute, and author of <i>Emotions, Learning, and the Brain</i>--Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, PhD<br><br>"Daniel Franklin has written a truly remarkable book about children with language-based learning disabilities. His work contains not only clear descriptions of different problems faced by children and adolescents with learning problems, but also realistic strategies for addressing these problems. I was especially impressed with Franklin's understanding of and empathy for children who struggle with learning, as well as for their parents, teachers, and other professionals who work with them. I found Franklin to be skilled at presenting the importance of helping youngsters to become more independent without prematurely removing the support that they require to navigate life's challenges.

His advice takes into consideration first and foremost the child's feelings and preferences, and works to bring parents and their struggling child onto the same plane. He understands and emphasizes the importance of early identification and intervention, and that there are no magic bullets, but that practice and more practice pay off. Franklin emanates positivity and patience, stressing kindness to children who have been exposed to more than their share of shaming and corrective input from adults." <br><b>--</b><b>Sally E.
