Raising Twice-Exceptional Children

A Handbook for Parents of Neurodivergent Gifted Kids

By: Emily Kircher-Morris

Narrated by: Vanessa Daniels

Just because a child is gifted doesn't mean they don't have other types of neurodivergence, like ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and more. Conversely, even children with one of these diagnoses can be cognitively gifted. Raising Twice-Exceptional Children provides you with a road map to understand the complex make-up of your "gifted-plus," or twice-exceptional, child or teen.

The book helps you understand your child's diagnosis, meet their social-emotional needs, build self-regulation skills and goal setting, and teach self-advocacy. It also shows you effective ways to collaborate with teachers and school staff, and it offers advice on finding strengths-based strategies that support development at home.

For too long, these kids have fallen through the cracks. This book provides key information on how to best support neurodivergent children by leveraging their strengths while supporting their struggles.

Good Book about 2e

This is a great book about 2e, however, I wish there were more books about children that were 2e in the younger years, like kindergarten through elementary school here. That was not very well represented at all, and most of what was talked about was middle school in high school.
