Summary

5 Things I Feared About My Son & His Future #470 Our son had extremely intense meltdowns, got in trouble routinely at school, didn't study or try his hardest, had a messy bedroom, and left lights on everywhere. Diagnosed with an alphabet soup of labels, he didn't listen, did argue, and underperformed in school. How did we address these issues and did we really have reasons to fear for his future? This is both very practical and encouraging! This is the FINAL week of our Spring Sale on the Get Everything Package.
