Book Cover & Preview Text
Grieving the loss of a child who sits in front of you seems harsh, but to acknowledge that child as he or she truly is, we must release the old ideas. We must breathe, release, cry, and move forward. Moving forward with love and new understanding will result in better futures for you and your child. They will see you recognize them as their true selves and not as some yearned for version. You will begin to help them through their struggles rather than try to fix them and their version of the world. You will both begin to empower each other to teach the world about the incredible microcosm you’re a small part of.

About the Book
Neurologically diverse children must often attempt to navigate through daily obstacles that others may view as simple tasks. Because these gifted children often struggle with other mental challenges, they can present a puzzle to unsuspecting parents that prompts feelings of isolation. The good news is that there are practical ways for parents to first understand and then help their exceptional seedlings overcome these hurdles.
In an essential guidebook for parents of neurodivergent kids, Kendra Rogers relies on her experience as an elementary educator and mother to four gifted children to share valuable insight into a variety of important topics that address the early signs and symptoms of neurological challenges; coping mechanisms, therapies, and medications; ways to parent together; sibling differences; and schooling options and accommodations. Included is a beginner’s guide to raising neurodivergent children as well as life hacks and resources that will help parents as they progress with their children through each stage of development.
Growing Exceptional Seedlings is a trusted companion for parents seeking guidance on how to raise neurodivergent children who are a larger blessing than life itself.
