Unison Parenting combines proven parenting techniques in a Christian context with a unique foundation of unison parenting strategies designed to identify and avoid pitfalls that disrupt parents from staying on the same page. The term “unison parenting” comes from music; singing in unison is when all voices sing the same note at the same time in order to emphasize the text. Similarly, to emphasize the message that parents want to send, they need to parent in unison. From Cecil’s personal parenting experience and the experience of families with which he has been involved, parents will learn how to proactively, intentionally adopt and execute strategies that balance a loving nature with firm boundaries for their child. This balance creates a warm, sure environment where the child and parent can eventually collaborate to bring the child to full, responsible adulthood. Designed for parents of school-age children who may reside in both traditional and non-traditional family structures, the first half of the book lays out parenting fundamentals for all ages. The second half focuses on the teen years and how to manage the child’s growing need for independence by allowing for incremental decision-making that gradually builds trust. Unison Parenting has been hailed as a comprehensive parenting guide that takes the child through ages and stages into mature adulthood.

Autism: A Practical Guide for Parents was written from the perspective of a father of children (now adults) with disabilities and who is also a licensed and certified psychologist and counselor. When parents are faced with serious medical problems in their children, they become very gullible to exaggerated claims of cure and unethical providers. The book contains substantial information about behavioral interventions to help mediate the behavioral concerns for children with autism, including an extensive reading list to help supplement the parents’ working knowledge and interventions. Also, a section is dedicated to various (and at times erroneous) interventions, including chelation, transcranial magnetic therapy, light therapy, and others. A research section is included to emphasize the importance of psychometric testing and review for the development of reliable and valid testing assessment vehicles. A psychological approach to the understanding of autism begins with a specific perspective of this challenge. First of all, children are children, including those children with autism. Second, you need to be educated about a broad spectrum of autism symptoms, including behavioral, medical, speech and language, and physical. Also, you need to join with a behavioral health team, including a psychologist, behavioral specialist, therapeutic staff support, and/or mobile therapist through your local managed care organization. Remember, you can help make positive behavioral and emotional health changes in your child to help him/her achieve a happy, healthy, and productive life. I have organized this book to be an easy read for parents and professionals. I’m sure you wouldn’t want to read about the abstract details of existential phenomenology, but would rather let me help you understand the details of autistic behavior from the viewpoint of a psychologist and father. I hope I have succeeded in this task!

James Williams is an SP or special person - he was diagnosed with autism during early childhood. His mother, Joan Matthews, is an NP or normal person. As James grew up, his different perception of the world and the lack of understanding from NPs created problems. Together, he and his mother met the challenges with ingenuity and humour. One day, while taking a walk, James and Joan decided to write a book of their practical solutions. The Self-Help Guide for Special Kids is that book. Covering everything from eye sensitivity, to knowing how far away to stand from other people, to being polite when someone is crying, James and Joan's book describes the problems that an SP may face, and the solutions which they have found to work successfully. Pervaded by their caustic humour and common sense, The Self-Help Guide for Special Kids will be invaluable to other SPs and their families both as a source of advice and a fresh and witty account of how it feels to be an SP.
