Many children are characterized as 'different' - by doctors, psychologists, educators, or even peers - and as parents, this characterization can limit our hopes and expectations for them. Although the challenges accompanying these characterizations are very real and can be daunting, all our children can grow up to become strong, capable, curious people. This book gathers the 12 habits you need to prepare your child for success regardless of diagnosis. Chapters include defining what 'capable' means for your child and the critical importance of how others treat your child, to challenging your child in safe ways and supporting them in building a narrative of strength. With true stories that bring each habit to life, the neuroscience underlying each habit, activities promoting self-analysis and practical application, this is a game-changing guide for understanding, supporting, and celebrating your extraordinary child.
