Description: "Parents play a key role in making sure their child develops healthy sexuality, that sense of self-confidence that helps make us all well-adjusted individuals. In this book, you'll learn how to interact with your children - no matter their age or ability - in a way that increases self-esteem, encourages appropriate behavior, empowers them to recognize and respond to abuse, and enables them to develop lifelong relationships.

Parents share with you the joys and challenges of raising a child with an intellectual disability as they offer you helpful advice and practical strategies. Individuals with intellectual disabilities explain, too, what is important to them."--BOOK JACKET.
