As a parent of a child with Down syndrome, this book is awesome! It really has been helping to make me realize I need to take more time for myself and the rest of my family. I highly recommend this book for any parent of a child with special needs!
An Excellent and Long Overdue Guide for Moms
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
MORE THAN A MOM is more than a book: it's a long overdue acknowledgement of what moms give to their children: in this case, children with special needs. Baskin and Fawcett provide mothers with a smorgasbord of practical and achievable strategies for working towards a full and balanced life. By the time you finish reading this book, you'll be convinced that you CAN take care of yourself while nurturing and advocating for your child. The authors may not be arguing that you can 'have it all' (what mom can?), but they are making the case that you can -- and should -- enjoy plenty of it.

It's so refreshing to read a book that focuses on positive, real life needs of exceptional children. I found every chapter to have useful, realistic information for parents and professionals alike. I would highly recommend this book not only for parents who have children with abilities, but for educators in general. Well done!
