Welcome
This Web site for Help Your Child or Teen Get Back on Track: What Parents and Professionals Can Do for Childhood Emotional and Behavioral Problems was set up with several purposes in mind. It provides:
- an opportunity for readers to give feedback about the book - what worked, what didn't, what made sense, what was confusing; this information will be used to improve the second edition. Feedback might be provided through e-mail or the message board.
- a forum for discussion, on the message board, about topics raised in the book, and a means for readers to help one another find further resources to address particular problems.
- information for potential readers who want to know more about the book, the author's professional background, or what reviewers have had to say.
- a listing of locations at which the author may be appearing for presentations and/or book signings.
- a blog used by the author to respond to common issues that readers raise, and that might be in a revised edition of the book. The blog might also be used by the author to share ideas that will be the focus of another book.
