Book description
At least one child in five experiences some form of learning
difficulty, but:
* Learning difficulties as we understand them DO NOT exist
* They are not diseases just symptoms
* These symptoms never appear alone
* They are treatable and avoidable
Dr Robin Pauc, an expert in child neurology, approaches learning
difficulties, including Dyslexia, ADD, OCD, ADHD, Dyspraxia and
Tourette's syndrome of childhood, from a truly ground-breaking
perspective. All human babies are born prematurely and develop special
new brain cells four months after birth. Every human's developement in
the womb and particularly in these early stages of life can,
therefore, be affected by devlepement delay, which can blight
childhood and marginalize a child at school. Since our brains continue
to grow, however, the symptoms can also be treated.
Is That My Child? Explains the backround to human developmental
delay and contains:
* Advice on how to get the best assessment for your child and an
explanation of what the examination must include
* The effects - good and bad - of certain foods on the brain
* Excercises and computer programs that you can use to expand your
child's neural function
* Case histories of children on whom this plan has worked
In the single biggest breakthorough in the history of learning
difficulties, Is That My Child? explains the cause of Development
Delay Syndromes, uses simple, easy-to-follow tips to show you how to
greatly reduce the risk of your child suffering, and gives advice on
what can be done to treat those children that do.
Dr Robin Pauc is a specialist in child neurology and runs his own
private practice. He lectures on behalf of the prestigious Carrick
Institute for Post-Graduate Studies at Cape Canaveral and is author of
several academic texts.
