About the Book

Bringing up a special child can leave parents feeling deskilled, disarmed, and worn down.

This is a tried-and-tested handbook for parents to read from cover to cover, or dip in and out of as needed.  Accessible and fun, Helping Children with Complex Needs Bounce Back includes exercises and worksheets, as well as breaking down the principles of the latest research, making them easy to apply to everyday situations. This 'magic box' of ideas and remedies is perfect for parents and carers, friends and families of children with disabilities, special educational needs, and mental or physical health needs, as well as professionals working with these children.

Review :
'As a mother of four children, three of whom have a pick and mix of special needs including ADD, ADHD, Asperger's, high-functioning autism, anxiety and dyslexia - this book has been about building my own resilience as well as theirs. A boost in resilience is, I believe, what got my youngest through SATS, and building my resilience to deal with my ADHD son has improved our relationship enormously. The exercises were fun as well as informative. I think this book is really practical and positive.'- Karin Anjos, Mother of four children with special needs'Caring for a disabled child with complex needs can be challenging for parents and for the professionals supporting them. We know that families value high quality emotional and practical support, but often lack the right advice that enables them to achieve 'ordinary' lives. The past decade has seen growing interest in the concept of developing resilience in both children and parents. This book offers a A"magic boxA" of ideas, and a menu of coping strategies for families and those who support them. The emphasis is on practical steps forward, positive and achievable outcomes, with the end result of families feeling confident and competent in helping their own child to make progress.'- Dr Philippa Russell, Chair of Standing Commission on Carers'It is terrific to see a book for parents and professionals which shares knowledge and expertise on resilience - it is the key to parents and children getting through the tough times.'- Mary MacLeod OBE, Chief Executive of the Family and Parenting Institute
