It is estimated that fifteen million children in the United States are dyslexic which can often be a major challenge not only for the kids, but also for their parents, families, teachers, tutors, and therapists. Dyslexia doesn't have to be a disadvantage for kids, if the right tools are available. Parenting Dyslexia provides prescriptive advice and concrete tips to drive educational and personal growth without any associated stigma. An easy-to-use, comprehensive reference book for anyone caring for a dyslexic child to use at all stages of development, Parenting Dyslexia addresses the psychosocial and academic issues that dyslexic learners are likely to face at different stages, including:
·Cultivating varied skills to balance out classic deficits.
·Developing effective self-esteem and academic habits to help overcome age-specific hurdles.
·Establishing individual and family practices to prevent a child's feelings of isolation, anxiety, and depression.
·Survival tools to navigate the predictable challenges a dyslexic learner will likely encounter.
·Nurturing independence as well as a child’s ability to ask for help and become a strong self-advocate.
From her unique vantage point, Dr. Rappaport provides a relatable, sympathetic, and optimistic voice of personal experience to this sensitive topic. Grounded in science but written in non-technical language, Parenting Dyslexia offers a wealth of tried-and-true methods for supporting dyslexic learners of all ages.
