nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Embracing Hope: Innovative Strategies to Empower Parents Raising Neurodiverse TeensThis comprehensive guide by Carl Young & Joel Sheagren addresses parents raising neurodiverse teens with ASD, ADHD, FASD, and trauma-related challenges.
