  • Great Book!

    Really helped me in my understanding of my child, it's a long process that takes time to handle but this book has helped me understand how to do this and how to behave when dealing with my child, needs to be read more than once and preferably by all that care for your child! shame most child care professionals are unaware of this.

  • Helps marriage as well as parenting!

    This book is easy to read, not patronising and genuinely just gives you the tools to navigate parenting a child who is "extra". It also helped me to understand how I recharge and why I simply can't manage everything all the time!
