Whether you are at the beginning, middle or end of your pre-diagnosis journey, this book will provide advice around how to deal with the practical challenges that come from parenting kids who are developing differently. It also an opportunity to reflect on the fun and the humour in busy family life, and learn from someone else who has done it before and made it through.
