Product Description

Product Description

Marion Stanton's book is an invaluable guide for all parents and guardians who are learning to care for a child with cerebral palsy. She highlights the positive experiences and emphasises the common parental wish to raise a bright, confident and happy child, whatever the obstacles. The book covers the early stages of cerebral palsy, choice of therapy and treatment, management of everyday life, education, informal support and social factors, legal rights and benefits, and planning for adulthood. There is also a fully updated and comprehensive reference section. With new research, changes in the benefits system and support networks, this will be a welcome and essential new edition.


About the Author

Marion Stanton is a qualified special needs teacher and mother of three children, including one who has cerebral palsy. She has co-founded an early learning group for children with disabilities and is an active member of the Alliance for Inclusive Education.

5.0 out of 5 stars Giving Hope in an Uncertain Time, 7 Nov 2003
By Mrs. V. Forrester "sparkly" (monifieth,angus) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have to say as a mother of a 31/2 year son who has diplegia cerebral palsy, the handbook was a godsend to me. It meant that I did'nt have to keep on answering questions rude or otherwise about how Isaac my son, was affected. Those who were interested did read the handbook, and the ones in it for the gossip, did'nt take the time, - you can see who the true friends are!!

Cerebral palsy in my son, has caused many traumas and tears, yet though this, Marion's handbook continues to give us hope and awareness in an uncertain time. I think it should be recommended to medical professionals,education and the government as they are still lacking in the knowledge of the more practical issues facing parents, i.e. why does the shoe industry provide so little choice for children who wear othotic splints? provide wider fittings and Isaac and I would be laughing.

Read the book, consider what is said and remember there are other parents out there,benefitting from reading this warm hearted and informative book.
