Inhaltsangabe

Raising a gifted child is both a joy and a challenge, yet parents of gifted children have few resources for reliable parenting information. The authors of this book are nationally known experts in giftedness, as well as parents themselves. From their decades of professional experience working with gifted children and their families, they provide practical guidance in key areas of concern for parents, such as the characteristics commonly seen in gifted children, peer relations, sibling issues, motivation and underachievement, discipline issues, intensity and stress, depression and unhappiness, education planning, parenting concerns, finding professional help, and much more. This is a book that parents will turn to again and again. Distinguished as an iParenting Media Award-Winner, USA Books News Award-Winner, and GLYPH Award-Winner!

Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Heretofore, there has not been such a wonderfully insightful, fascinating, and comprehensive guidebook as this one. A Parent's Guide to Gifted Children will undoubtedly become a 'must read' for all adults who are confronted with the day-to-day challenges inherent in bringing up a gifted child." -F. Richard Olenchak, Ph.D., P.C., Director and Psychologist, Urban Talent Research Institute, University of Houston and Past President, National Association for Gifted Children ; "...an invaluable guide for parents, grandparents, and others who love a gifted child. At 400 pages, it is not as long as the manual for a home computer, but much more important and far more interesting." -Raymond D. Fowler, Ph.D., Former President and Chief Executive Officer, American Psychological Association ; "This book is destined to become the classic guide for parents of gifted children. The key topics covered are essential ones, and this book provides much wisdom and new information." -Jan Davidson, Ph.D., Co-founder, Davidson Institute for Talent Development and co-author of Genius Denied: How to Stop Wasting Our Brightest Minds
