Written in an easy-to-follow, engaging style, the book covers a range of topics, including: what NLD is; obtaining and coping with the diagnosis; what to expect as a parent, especially while at home; how to help your child "manage inflow" and reduce stress, especially in novel or social situations; dealing with perseverative interests; socialization and teaching social skills; fun activities that NLD children can enjoy and benefit from; NLD at school and how to work with the school system, including how to be prepared for IEP (Individualized Education Program) meetings; discussing and explaining NLD to your child; tips on taking vacations and moving; how to get involved as a parent; and how to pursue therapy options outside the school system. This is a valuable guide for parents who are trying to understanding their child's diagnosis, and it includes a resource list of websites and organizations, as well as a bibliography with further reading suggestions.
