Actually, You’re Fine: A Compassionate, Practical Guide to Maximizing Your Child’s Potential in the Age of Anxiety by Dr. Katie S. Davis
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2.6 mb
Overview: Clinical neuropsychologist and learning disorder expert Dr. Katie Davis offers a new, illuminating approach to child development, helping you to support your child through their challenges―without leaping to a diagnosis.
As parents, we want nothing more than our child to thrive in each stage of development. Seeing them struggle in that process can be difficult, but sometimes, it’s normal. After years of research, Dr. Davis suggests that a diagnosis isn’t always the answer helping our kids keep up with the curve.
Actually, You’re Fine is a compassionate guide to childhood development that reveals anxiety is natural when it comes to tracking your child’s development. Our instinct, when we notice a child struggling, is often to search for a label―to assume that difficulty must signal a disorder. But the rush to pathologize can be harmful for both parents and kids for a range of reasons, from unnecessary medication to misallocation of resources. Rather than feeling capable and ready to take on life’s challenges, children can feel that their challenges are unacceptable and taboo. Overdiagnosis can also stigmatize kids who are genuinely struggling.
