Disability Is Natural: Revolutionary Common Sense for Raising Successful Children With Disabilities

In this user-friendly book, parents learn revolutionary common sense techniques for raising successful children with disabilities. When we recognize that disability is a natural part of the human experience, new attitudes lead to new actions for successful lives at home, in school and in communities. When parents replace today's conventional wisdom with the common sense values and creative thinking detailed in this book, all children with disabilities (regardless of age or type of disability) can live the life of their dreams. Readers will learn how to define a child by his or her assets - instead of a disability-related "problem," and how to create new and improved partnerships with educators, health care professionals, family and friends.

Kathie Snow is the parent of two teenagers, one of whom has a disability. During the past ten years, her presentations across the United States and Canada have enabled thousands of parents to acquire new skills for raising successful children who happen to have disabilities.
