Reflections on Raising a Child with a Disability

Uncommon Fathers is a compelling collection of essays by fathers who were asked to reflect and write about the life-altering experience of raising a child with a disability. Nineteen fathers take an introspective and honest look at this deeply emotional subject. Offered here is a seldom-heard perspective on raising children with special needs including autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome.

The first book written for fathers by fathers, Uncommon Fathers should also be helpful to family, friends, and service providers who will appreciate this rare forum and perhaps, learn from what these fathers have to say.
