Special Kids Need Special Parents: A Resource for Parents of Children with Special Needs

Parents of children with special needs face unique emotional and practical challenges every day. These issues are seldom fully addressed by the medical community - and parents’ most compelling questions remain unanswered. Judith Loseff Lavin was thrust into the world of children’s hospitals and special needs when her daughter was born with a cleft lip and palate. In Special Kids Need Special Parents, she draws on interviews with health-care professionals, nationally recognized authorities, and families of children with special needs to give readers the advice, encouragement, and comfort they crave.
