Licensed psychologist and authority on dyslexia (who is also dyslexic herself) Lisa Rappaport offers a practical guide to help parents and others support dyslexic learners throughout their school years and beyond. 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.
