Book - Parent
"This handbook for parents of children and teenagers with Tourette syndrome offers up-to-date, concrete information and compassionate advice for dealing with what is perhaps one of the most misunderstood and misdiagnosed neurological disorders. Written by a team of professionals and parents, Children with Tourette Syndrome covers medical, educational, legal, family life, daily care, and emotional issues. The authors offer families a foundation for understanding this complex disorder and for developing strategies that can help their child become a productive, happy adult. Treatments, including those for related conditions like attention deficit disorder (ADD) and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), behavior management techniques, tips on handling the reactions of others, parent advocacy, coping with feelings of guilt and resentment, and getting help for a child at school, are just some of the topics discussed." -From the Publisher
