Title: Essential Readings on Stress and Coping among Parents of Deaf and Hearing-Impaired Children
Description: "This book provides a convenient, single source for better understanding the major stressors parents of deaf and hearing-impaired children confront, and the strategies and resources they use to cope with the experience of grief, depression, anxiety, panic, and other negative states that often threaten their personal and family lives." "The authoritative studies in this volume dispel stereotypes about parents of deaf and hearing-impaired children, by revealing differences in how they cope with stressors - as individuals and members of diverse social, ethnic, and national groups." "The collection of facts, perspectives and insights contained in this anthology makes it a vital resource not only for parents and students of deaf and hearing-impaired children and their families, but for all individuals concerned about issues involving stress, coping, and functioning among family members of different social, ethnic, and national groups."--BOOK JACKET.
