Differently wired -- parenting kids who are neurodiverse

Bestselling author Deborah Reber will read from her new book at Third Place Books in Ravenna in Seattle on Friday, June 15, 2018 at 7pm. The Ravenna store is located at 6504 20th Ave NE, Seattle 98115.

Today millions of kids are stuck in a world that doesn't respect, support, or embrace who they really are — these are what Deborah Reber is calling the "differently wired" kids, the one in five children with ADHD, dyslexia, Asperger's, giftedness, anxiety, sensory processing disorder, and other neurodifferences.

Their challenges are many. But for the parents who love them, the challenges are just as hard—struggling to find the right school, the right therapist, the right parenting group while feeling isolated and harboring endless internal doubts about what's normal, what's not, and how to handle it all.

DIFFERENTLY WIRED: Raising an Exceptional Child in a Conventional World by founder of TiLT Parenting Deborah Reber is a how-to, a manifesto, a book of wise advice, and the best kind of been-there, done-that companion.

DIFFERENTLY WIRED is both a guidebook that parents and educators can use daily as well as an inspiring manifesto on how to create a different future where neurodiverse kids are accepted as they are. Deborah’s proposal of alternative ways of being help to promote discovery of how to stay open, pay attention, and become an exceptional parent to your exceptional child.
