Synopsis
A definitive look at learning disabilities and teh brain, from two neuropsychologists who specialise in breaking down simplistic labels - i.e. dyslexia - into more specific diagnoses based on behaviour and symptom., Parents and doctors often treat learning disabilities based on behaviour rather than what is actually happening in the brain to cause that behaviour. A diagnosis of ADHD can stem from any number of things - and medication won't cure the fact that the child may have a sensory impairment or a brain that's not wired to retain information after 10 minutes without some kind of stimulating break. With comprehensive chapters on every kind of learning disability the Eides offer a genuinely informed alternative understanding for millions of parents and teachers the world over. Now in pb., An incredibly reassuring approach by two physicians who specialize in helping children overcome their difficulties in learning and succeeding in school For parents, teachers, and other professionals seeking practical guidance about ways to help children with learning problems, this book provides a comprehensive look at learning differences ranging from dyslexia to dysgraphia, to attention problems, to giftedness. In The Mislabeled Child , the authors describe how a proper understanding of a child's unique brain-based strengths can be used to overcome many different obstacles to learning. They show how children are often mislabeled with diagnoses that are too broad (ADHD, for instance) or are simply inaccurate. They also explain why medications are often not the best ways to help children who are struggling to learn. The authors guide readers through the morass of commonly used labels and treatments, offering specific suggestions that can be used to help children at school and at home. This book offers extremely empowering information for parents and professionals alike. The Mislabeled Child examines a full spectrum of learning disorders, from dyslexia to giftedness, clarifying the diagnoses and providing resources to help. The Eides explain how a learning disability encompasses more than a behavioral problem; it is also a brain dysfunction that should be treated differently., For parents, teachers, and other professionals seeking practical guidance about ways to help children with learning problems, this book provides a comprehensive look at learning differences ranging from dyslexia to dysgraphia, to attention problems, to giftedness.

It provides an answer to the parents of the 16 million children with significant learning and behavioral problems; to the nearly 3 million teachers who are responsible for their education; to the 2 million homeschooling families, many of whom choose this route of education when poorly diagnosed or managed difficulties force them out of the traditional school track; and to the many therapists and other clinicians who help care for these children., Two physicians who specialize in helping children overcome their difficulties in learning and succeeding in school offer a reassuring approach to understanding learning styles.

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.

  • The Mislabeled Child, author Brock Eide

    Excellent explanations of otherwise under-identified complex behavior causes and conditions that effect children and into resulting adult development. This book is 10 years old, and right on time for people frustrated by the minimal efforts by the schools and other pediatric behavior analysts that are so in-style for the last decade. Many examples with detail to provide great clarity of the What and Why for otherwise mysterious behaviors that are not simply "autism" or "learning disabilities" .
