This book provides a road map for others to attain happiness in their lives through the attainment of True-Inner-Peace. Carter is blatantly honest about his inner demons and wears his heart on his sleeve.

Respecting Autism - Jan 09,2012 | Dr. Tippy and Floortime™ creator Dr Stanley Greenspan collaborated on Respecting Autism. In 2005, Dr. Greenspan became a consultant to The Rebecca School and his work with students is featured throughout the book. The school institutionalizes Dr. Greenspan’s “Floortime™” methods of teaching and its educators work to extend students’ circles of communication using the Developmental, Individual Difference, Relationship-based (DIR®) model also pioneered by Dr. Greenspan. Autism Spectrum Disorders are not issues of memory or of extinguishable behaviors, but rather difficulties with relating and communicating. Throughout Respecting Autism everyday real life students and their families generously open up their homes and personal histories to Dr. Tippy who then conveys to readers these student’s triumphs and frustrations, joys and fears as each child in her or his own way strives to experience the freedom of the world of abstraction. Respecting Autism introduces readers to sixteen students and their personal stories presented as case studies. In each of these very different studies, Dr. Tippy takes a thorough and thoughtful approach to introducing readers to these individuals; he first establishes their family’s story and educational background, then provides specifics regarding the students’ work as well as behavior at school. Each case study concludes with Dr. Greenspan’s diagnosis, reflections, and plan regarding how best to proceed to bring the student fully into the circle of communication. | 1/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

MetLife Special Needs Planning - Torn Security Blanket - Dec 16,2011 | The MetLife Center for Special Needs PlanningSM helps you to take steps to provide lifetime quality care that your dependent with special needs requires. Planning for the future of an individual with special needs requires in-depth knowledge of the federal laws as they pertain to government benefit eligibility and legal documents such as special needs trusts and guardianships. There are important financial considerations as well for providing not just lifetime care, but quality of life. In planning for the future of your dependent, remember that you are the primary expert, but you may also need to turn to a number of other experts for assistance on such things as special needs estate planning. Though many of these issues can seem overwhelming, it is important you take the time with those experts today to provide for your loved one’s tomorrow. The same holds true for issues of medical insurance authorizations for specialized services and products such as physical therapy and medical equipment. It is also true when it comes to knowledge of the special education laws which most often require you to become an active advocate and participant in your childs education plan. She is the mother of four children, and jumped at the chance to work with the MetLife Center for Special Needs Planning since one of her children has special needs. Kelly is an active advocate for dependents with special needs, and serves as a resource for families with special needs dependents.

Temple Grandin - Diane Kennedy - Rebecca Banks - Nov 14,2011 | Bright Not Broken: Gifted Kids, ADHD, and Autism The future of our society depends on our gifted children--the population in which well find our next Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, or Virginia Woolf. Yet the gifts and talents of some of our most brilliant kids may never be recognized because these children fall into a group known as twice exceptional, or "2e." Twice exceptional kids are both gifted and diagnosed with a disability--often ADHD or an Autism Spectrum Disorder--leading teachers and parents to overlook the childs talents and focus solely on his weaknesses. Too often, these children get lost in an endless cycle of chasing diagnostic labels and are never given the tools to fully realize their own potential. Bright Not Broken sheds new light on this vibrant population by identifying who twice exceptional children are and taking an unflinching look at why theyre stuck. The first work to boldly examine the widespread misdiagnosis and controversies that arise from our current diagnostic system, it serves as a wake-up call for parents and professionals to question why our mental health and education systems are failing our brightest children. Finally, the authors show what we can do to help 2e children, providing a whole child model for parents and educators to strengthen and develop a childs innate gifts while also intervening to support the deficits. Drawing on painstaking research and personal experience, Bright Not Broken offers groundbreaking insight and practical strategies to those seeking to help 2e kids achieve their full potential.

Speaking to your child about the Penn State Child Abuse - Nov 12,2011 | The Penn State Sex Abuse Crisis has horrified us as parents and as human beings. The thought of someone being able to use their power to abuse children is incomprehensible. Sometimes parents wait until it is s too late to discuss these types of situations and scenereos with their children. I am not speaking of the parents of the victims in this case, I am speaking in general terms. My heart goes out to these families. We are offering this special broadcast because we sincerely feel this horrific turn of events gives parents a golden opportunity to speak to their children, calm frightened children and speak in very clear terms as to what they are to do if they are ever in this situation or know of someone who is. Joining us to discuss the psychological impact of children being exposed to the sexual abuse scandal in the media and why and how parents should have this important conversation is Dr Jerry Weichman. Dr. Jerry Weichman is a licensed psychologist, an adolescent specialist, author, speaker and parenting expert.

Bruce Sallan - A Dads Point of View - Nov 07,2011 | Bruces first book takes the best of his A Dads Point-of-View columns and other writings, plus brand new material, and puts it all together in a terrific examination of how to be the best parent you can be. He also discusses many of the other family-related issues that he regularly covers, such as second marriages, teens, gender issues, and faith. Bruce is a columnist writing on parenting issues from the dad’s point-of-view, though often the situations are gender-neutral. It is his contention that the dad’s point-of-view is less “heard” yet equally valuable to parents. Written with wit and humor, Bruce shares the world of single parenting, being a male primary caregiver and creating a blended family. Formerly a television producer working with such actors as Ingrid Bergman, Ron Howard, Mickey Rourke (THAT is a story), Don Johnson (another even better story), Ben Affleck, Hal Holbrook, Barbara Hershey, Sissy Spacek, Henry Winkler, Alan Arkin, and Brian Dennehey.

Dr Ron Minson - ILS - Oct 24,2011 | Often, our learning tools are putting a roof on a weak foundation. The acquisition of reading, writing, math and other academic skills is dependent upon a normally-developed nervous system. Communication between the two hemispheres and integration of sensory input from the eyes, ears and motor systems must be intact to accomplish the goals of educational intervention. However, efficient processing doesn’t occur in an immature nervous system. Through appropriate auditory, visual and vestibular stimulation, we are able to help the nervous system develop. The brain’s ability to increase neuronal activity in response to stimulationis known as “neuroplasticity.” iLs sessions provide repeated, gentle stimulation which influence brain function. The improvements in brain function are based on the premise that our higher brain functions – the “cortical functions” such as language, cognitive skills, socialization – rely and depend upon how well sensory input is received and processed as it enters the central nervous system and is relayed to the upper brain. iLs improves processing at both the sub-cortical and cortical levels. iLs has a global effect on the brain and central nervous system, influencing the following systems: balance, visual, auditory, motor, coordination, behavior and emotional regulation. As a result, it is successfully implemented for a wide variety of conditions: Learning difficulties such as reading, spelling, math, auditory processing and attention Sensory processing and integration Stress, sleep, emotional regulation and mood problems Those with autism and neuro-developmental difficulties | 10/23/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Mike Royce - Producer/Writer Men Of A Certain Age - Jun 23,2011 | Mike Royce Executive Producer and writer of Men Of A Certain Age and Everyone Loves Raymond is our guest. Men Of A Certain Age is a fantastic series on TNT starring Ray Romano Scott Bakula Andre Braugher and Brian White to name of few in this outstanding cast. This comedic drama has taken on a storyline dealing with the subject of teen anxiety and panic disorder. It is written and portrayed so well and with such insight into parental confusion and teen avoidance that I just had to have him on. Equally intriguing is the obsessive compulsive tendencies of the father (Ray Ramano) and the effect that it has on the relationships in his life. This show is far from gloom and doom, it is one of the funniest, smartest and compelling TV Series you will find. If you have not seen this show you are missing out . It is hilarious - heart warming - contemporary and one of the best shows on television. Who knew men of that certain age could be so cool! | 6/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Dr Sandy Gluckman - The Inflammation Connection - Jun 09,2011 | Dr Sandy Gluckman joins us to discuss he Inflamation Connection to anxiety disorders in children and teens and how to TAKE CHARGE in advocating for your childs treatments. From Dr Gluckmans website: The degree of stress-related problems in children is reaching epidemic proportions. Children are experiencing stress. This is a reality. Stress triggers conditions such as underachievment, low motivation, inattention, meltdowns, to anxiety, bullying, depression, OCD, ADHD, autism, eczema, asthma, allergies, and more. So what do we do when this happens?We describe these symptoms to the doctor, who then diagnoses the ‘disorder’, gives the child a label and then treats the ‘disorder’ with medication. The symptoms may go away or decrease but we have not identified and treated what caused the stress-related symptoms in the first place. You may be surprised to know that the child’s learning, behavior or healthy issues are most often caused by something unhealthy that is happening in the child’s body, that has remained hidden and untreated. My quest is to update and change the way that parents and teachers think about, and deal with, stress and stress-related symptoms in children by showing them how to identify, treat and remove the root cause of children’s learning, behavior and health challenges. | 6/8/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

In addition, different gene signatures are associated with different subgroups of autistic individuals, such as those with severe language impairment, with milder forms of ASD such as Asperger’s Syndrome and with savant skills. This association of biological profiles with behavioral profiles is needed for development of therapies targeted to specific symptoms or subgroups of ASD.
