ADHD - Anxiety - Nonverbal - Communication - Disorders -
Visual/Spatial - Disorders - Executive Functioning Difficulties
As any parent, teacher, coach, or caregiver of a learning disabled
child knows, every learning disability has a social component. The
ADD child constantly interrupts and doesn't follow directions. The
child with visual-spatial issues loses his belongings. The child
with a nonverbal communication disorder fails to gesture when she
talks. These children are socially out of step with their peers,
and often they are ridiculed or ostracized for their differences. A
successful social life is immeasurably important to a child's
happiness, health, and development, but until now, no book has
provided practical, expert advice on helping learning disabled
children achieve social success.
For more than thirty years, Richard Lavoie has lived with and
taught learning disabled children. His bestselling videos and
sellout lectures and workshops have made him one of the most
respected experts in the field. Rick's pioneering techniques and
practical strategies can help children ages six to seventeen
Overcome shyness and low self-esteem Use appropriate body language
to convey emotion Focus attention and avoid disruptive behavior
Enjoy playdates and making friends Employ strategies for
counteracting bullying and harassment Master the Hidden Curriculum
and polish the apple with teachers
"It's So Much Work to Be Your Friend" answers the most intense
need of parents, teachers, and caregivers of learning disabled
children -- or anyone who knows a child who needs a friend.
