Parenting Children with Developmental Disabilities

Learning Differences. Learning Disabilities

Abstract

Organized children are raised, not born. That?s the philosophy behind this confidence-building, sanity-saving book. Fostering organized thinking in your child will help with concrete concerns (think a tidier bedroom!) and build critical life skills like learning to plan and grasping the big picture.

Dr. Korb?s 5 Steps to Raising an Organized Child apply to all ages. So, whether you have an infant or a teenager, it?s never too late (or too early!) to foster organization in him or her and harmony in your whole family. Raising an Organized Child presents specific activities for your child?s age and developmental level to improve executive function. *

No matter if your child is just your average chaotic kid or struggling with additional challenges like ADHD, you can boost your child?s organization and lower your frustration with Dr. Korb?s guidance.

Abstract

Appréhender et tempérer les troubles de l'adolescence. Tous les ados ne se ressemblent pas. Certains vivent cette période repliés dans leur chambre, d'autres ne cessent de sortir. Certains perdent tout intérêt pour les études, d'autres sont toujours premiers, certains ont le joint aux lèvres dès le lever, d'autres n'y toucheraient pour rien au monde et d'autres encore oscillent entre les deux extrêmes. Il reste que certains traits se dégagent et que tous vivent une période complexe. Crise ? Oui, en quelque sorte. L'adolescent traverse une crise, une transformation. L'adolescence inquiète parce que les risques sont effectivement là. Et pour traverser cette étape, Les ados ont besoin de leurs parents. A leurs côtés et non en face d'eux. Conçu comme les précédents - par tranche d'âge -, ce livre explore la psychologie des adolescents, ainsi que certaines composantes biologiques et physiologiques, et aide ainsi à poser un regard nouveau sur les motivations de leurs comportements.

Abstract

Occupational therapy uses simple, fun activities to help kids learn the skills they need for daily life, from eating meals and writing the alphabet to socializing with friends and family. Occupational Therapy Activities for Kids is designed to help children at all developmental ability levels strengthen those skills by playing their way through 100 exciting exercises that are easy to do at home anytime.

-

This family-friendly guide offers concise information on how occupational therapy works and shows you how to apply it in a way that benefits your child. The games are even divided into chapters based on different types of occupational therapy skills―sensory processing, motor, social-emotional, and cognitive and visual processing―so you can focus on the ones that are most important for your child.

Customizable for your kid―Every chapter starts with the simplest activities and increases in complexity, with tips on how to make each activity easier or harder.

No experience necessary―From Balloon Volleyball to Find the Treasure, most exercises can be done with things you probably already have in your home. No prior knowledge or special tools required.

All kids, all ages―These occupational therapy activities are built for kids 1 to 6 years old with various developmental challenges, but they can help all kids improve their physical, social-emotional, and cognitive abilities.

Diabetes Mellitus - Young Adults

Abstract

Growing up the son of a professional hockey player - Tie Domi - Max saw from an early age what it took to make the NHL: grit, talent, and the support of a team. Over countless hours in the garage, at the rink, and in the gym, Max chased his dream. It seemed that Max was born to be on the ice.

But then, when he was twelve years old, Max started getting sick. And sicker. Eventually, he and his family learned the truth: Max had type 1 diabetes.

Overnight, Max and his family found their lives upended. All Max wanted was to be a normal kid, but suddenly, the simplest things - a game of basketball with friends, a family meal, a school field trip - were complicated with a thousand different considerations.

As he struggled to find his new normal, Max slowly began to realize that overcoming his disease demanded the same qualities that it took to be a hockey player - mental and physical toughness, maturity, and the love and care of family and friends. Bit by bit, he learned - sometimes the hard way - not just to control his diabetes, but to turn it into an advantage. If managing his disease was going to demand that Max be stronger, more prepared, and more disciplined than anyone else, then he wouldn't just be good at those things: he'd be the best. He'd do whatever it took to move him closer to his dream of playing in the NHL.

Montréal, le 6 novembre 2018--Dans le contexte de la légalisation du cannabis au Québec et au Canada, le pharmacologue de renom, professeur à l'Université de Montréal, M. Ben Amar, le Centre québécois de lutte aux dépendances (CQLD) et le ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux du Québec publient une toute nouvelle référence académique sur la question du cannabis « Le cannabis : Pharmacologie et toxicologie ».

Le nouveau livre fournit des informations justes, actuelles et exhaustives sur la substance controversée qu'est le cannabis. Il constitue une source incontournable pour les individus, les gouvernements, les organismes publics et privés ainsi que les petites et grandes corporations qui devront s'ajuster à cette nouvelle réalité. « Le cannabis : Pharmacologie et toxicologie » promet de devenir la référence sur la question, notamment au sujet de l'histoire, la législation, la pharmacologie et les risques pour la santé.

« Avec cette réalité nouvelle pour la société québécoise, nous avons à c'ur d'assurer la santé et la sécurité de la population, notamment les jeunes. Il est essentiel de bien informer les citoyens des effets de la consommation de cette substance, afin qu'ils puissent prendre des décisions éclairées à cet égard. En ce sens, ce livre vient offrir un éventail d'informations pertinentes, et la démarche qui a mené à sa publication reflète l'importance de la concertation et du partage d'expertises entre tous les acteurs concernés », souligne monsieur Horacio Arruda, directeur national de santé publique.
