When College is NOT an Option- Possibilities For Special Needs Youth (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Your teen doesn't need perfect grades to build a meaningful future. They need guidance, support, and a plan that fits who they are.

If you're the parent of a high schooler who struggles academically-maybe they're a C or D student, have ADHD, dyslexia, or another learning difference-you know the quiet fear of wondering what happens after graduation. College may not be the right fit, but that doesn't mean your child's future is limited.

This book is a compassionate, practical guide to help parents see the bigger picture. With step-by-step advice and real-world options, this book will show you how to:

• Recognize and celebrate your teen's unique strengths.
• Navigate IEPs, 504 plans, and school systems with confidence.
• Explore realistic paths beyond high school, from GED programs to Job Corps, apprenticeships, trade schools, and workforce development.
• Teach life skills that matter more than report cards-like responsibility, money management, communication, and resilience.
• Build a support network of teachers, mentors, and community programs so you don't carry the weight alone.
• Release guilt, let go of comparison, and find hope in your child's unique journey.

With worksheets, resources, and motivational scripts included, this book is more than a guide-it's a lifeline for parents who want to see their teen thrive, even if college isn't the destination.

Your child's story is not defined by grades. With your love and the right tools, they can step into adulthood with confidence, stability, and hope.
