Parenting Children With SEND: The Challenge to Be Heard and the Fight for an Education. Verbal Dyspraxia and Autism – A Memoir of a Parent’s Journey - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A heart-warming true story of a family's challenging journey through the education system, as told through their everyday lives.

'Anne' is a mum of a daughter with verbal dyspraxia and an autistic son. Written over the course of a decade, this book details the confusion before obtaining their diagnoses, the heartache and relief that a diagnosis brings and the struggles and anger, as well as extreme proud moments, in the years that follow.

Beginning with a journey along the path of verbal dyspraxia, life takes a slow and gentle turn onto a different path - one of autism. As one child's struggles come to an end, the other's begin. These paths couldn't have been more different.

Being a teacher as well as a mum, Anne has fought her own internal battle between somewhat understanding schools' viewpoints when it comes to autism and anxiety, whilst also being dismayed at their responses and utterly horrified at the education system overall.

Desperate to overcome the inadequacies of the system, Parenting Children With SEND includes all the ideas and strategies Anne and her husband tried so they could help their children be happy and succeed in life, some of which may also be useful to you.

Whether you're a fellow special needs parent wanting to know you're not alone or an education professional who wants to understand more, follow along on this ultimately uplifting journey.
