Bright Not Broken


Got a "twice-exceptional" kid--one who is gifted but also has a disability? Looking to help them reach their full potential? Bright not broken: Gifted kids, ADHD, and autism may be the answer for you. Given the disability that is associated with these kids, teachers and parents can overlook the gifted aspect and focus on the disability. The authors offer this book as a wake-up call and examine the misdiagnoses and controversies surrounding the current diagnostic system. They discuss a whole child model to help children develop their gifts while supporting their disabilities.
