A Survival Guide for Ordinary Parents of Special Children” On a perfection-preoccupied planet, sisters Gina Gallagher and Patricia Konjoian, dare to openly speak about the frustrations, stigmas, joys and challenges they face as parents of children with disabilities (one with Asperger’s syndrome, the other with bipolar disorder). The Psychology Today bloggers and renowned authors give a refreshingly frank and enjoyable presentation, based on their book, “Shut Up About Your Perfect Kid, a survival guide for ordinary parents of special children” (Random House, August 2010), and have participants laughing out loud and celebrating the joys, gifts, and milestones of special children. Participants will learn – • How laughter can be a powerful coping technique. • How to deal with insensitive people. • How to get your children the services and the support they need. • How to help break stigma. • How to see the joys and gifts in raising special children.
