Differently Wired: Raising an Exceptional Child in a Conventional World

Itâ€™s time to say NO to trying to fit square-peg kids into rounds holes, and YES to raising them from a place of acceptance and joy.

Today millions of kids are stuck in a world that doesnâ€™t embrace who they really are. They are the one in five â€œdifferently wiredâ€ children with ADHD, dyslexia, giftedness, autism, anxiety, or other neurodifferences, and their challenges are many. And for the parents who love them, the challenges are just as numerous, as they struggle to find the right school, the right support, the right path.
But now thereâ€™s hope. Differently Wired is a revolutionary bookâ€”weaving together personal stories and a tool kit of expert advice from author Deborah Reber, itâ€™s a how-to, a manifesto, and a reassuring companion for parents who can so often feel that they have no place to turn.

At the heart of Differently Wired are 18 paradigm-shifting ideasâ€”what the author calls â€œtilts,â€ which include how to accept and lean in to your role as a parent (#2: Get Out of Isolation and Connect). Deal with the challenges of parenting a differently wired child (#5: Parent from a Place of Possibility Instead of Fear). Support yourself (#11: Let Go of Your Impossible Expectations for Who You â€œShouldâ€ Be as a Parent). And seek community (#18: If It Doesnâ€™t Exist, Create It).

Taken together, itâ€™s a lifesaving program to shift our thinking and actions in a way that not only improves the family dynamic, but also allows children to fully realize their best selves.
