Every child deserves to lead a happy and fulfilling life. For parents

only negotiate daily challenges, but to live fulfilling, meaningful
lives, can be the most difficult challenge they will face.
Over the years, millions of parents and teachers have come to trust Jane
Nelsen's classic Positive Discipline series for its consistent,
commonsense approach to childrearing. Now, the bestselling series
addresses the specific challenges that parents and teachers of children
with special needs face, and offers them straightforward advice for
supporting them in positive ways. In these pages are practical solutions
to challenges such as:
Learning to look beyond diagnostic labels ● Believing in each child's
potential regardless of his/her stage of development ● Helping children
integrate socially and interact with their peers ● Coping with the
frustration that inevitably occurs when a child is being difficult ●
Strengthening a child's sense of belonging and significance ● And Many
More!

- How do you accommodate a disability, while still teaching a child to
try their best?
- How do you help a child cope with anger they may have trouble
expressing, especially when that anger may on some level be justified?
- How do you teach a child who may struggle with seemingly straight
forward tasks to contribute to the world around them in a way that will
be meaningful to them?
"If you are raising or teaching a child with special needs, this book
is a must-read. As the mother of a child with autism, my hopes and
dreams for my son were no different than those of other parents. I
wanted a parenting approach that helped my child grow up to be self
confident, happy, and prepared for success in relationships, work, and
life. I also needed practical, effective methods for addressing the
significant, challenging behaviors I faced on a daily basis. Finally, in
this amazing book, I found both....Thank you, thank you, thank you to
the authors of this groundbreaking book." - Rachel Fink Parks, MS, PCC
