More Than A Mom:  Living a Full and Balanced Life When Your Child Has Special Needs

Amy Baskin, M.Ed. & Heather Fawcett, B.A.

Description:

More Than A Mom explores how women can lead rich, fulfilling personal lives while parenting a child with special needs.  The authors’ skillful blend of research, personal experiences, and feedback from over 500 mothers across North America results in a book that is jam-packed with practical strategies, advice, and reassurance for women trying to create more manageable and rewarding lives.  More Than A Mom addresses the universal concerns and questions of these mothers, who experience the added intensity of raising children with disabilities.  This "how-to-" guide looks at the challenges these mothers face at home, at work, and within themselves.
