Late, Lost, and Unprepared: A Parents' Guide to Helping Children with Executive Functioning



  • ISBN13: 9781890627843
  • Condition: New
  • Notes: BRAND NEW FROM PUBLISHER! BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, Over one million books sold! 98% Positive feedback. Compare our books, prices and service to the competition. 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed


(2009 National Parenting Publications Awards (NAPPA): Honors Award)

Executive functions are the cognitive skil ls that help us manage our lives and be successful. Children with weak executive skills, despite their best intentions, often do their homework but forget to turn it in, wait until the last minute to start a project, lose things, or have a room that looks like a dump! The good news is that parents can do a lot to support and train their children to manage these frustrating and stressful weaknesses.

Late, Lost, and Unprepared is a must-have book for parents of children from primary school through high school who struggle with:

Impulse Control (taking turns, interrupting others, running off)

Cognitive Flexibility (adapting to new situations, transitions, handling frustrations)

Initiation (starting homework, chores, and major projects)

Working Memory (following directions, note-taking, reading and retaining info)

Planning & Organizing (completing and turning in homework, juggling schedules)

Self-monitoring (making car eless errors, staying on topic, getting into trouble but not understanding why)

Written by clinical psychologists, Late, Lost, and Unprepared emphasizes the need for a two-pronged approach to intervention: 1) helping the child to manage demands in the short run, and 2) building independent skills for long-term self-management. Full of encouragement and practical strategies, the book s organization--short chapters with overviews, summaries, case studies, tips, and definitions--makes it easy to grasp concepts quickly and get started.

Part I, What You Need to Know, provides information about: what executive functions are and how weaknesses in these skills affect development; the impact of weak executive function on children's emotional lives and their families; how professionals assess executive function problems; and associated conditions (AD/HD--children with an AD/HD diagnosis always have executive skills issues--learning disabilities, autism spectrum di sorders, Tourette syndrome, etc.).

Part II discusses What You Can Do About It including how to change behavior and set reasonable expectations, and offers specific intervention strategies for children of different ages, varying needs, and profiles.

Late, Lost, and Unprepared is chockful of ideas for helping your child or student be productive and independent--today and in the future.

Question by Mr. Spin: What kind of digital camera has a lens that can take pictures in a small room?

My digital cameras, including my camcorders really don't capture "enough" area. I always find myself in a corner against a wall to get the most of a scene.

I wish that manufactures would now concentrate on the lens, instead of the insane sizes of megapixels and fancy color digital menus.

The only cameras that do what I want are my 2-1/4" Yashica and my 35mm Monolta film cameras. I really like digital though.
I have no room for my darkroom anymore, and digital is cheaper and quicker.




Best answer:

Answer by Dusty
You need a DSLR camera. Most all of them have interchangeable lenses just like your 35 film camera. I have a Pentax tha t is in the mid prosumer price range and one of the lenses I have for it is an 18 to 55 mil zoom. That 18 is a very wide angle which is great for macro copy work too.

Question by heatherette:

What are the benefits of investing in stocks?



I am very interested in investing, but I really don't know how or what the benefits. How does it work in simple terms? I guess I need to read "Investing for Dummies" or something. Basically, if I put towards a stock, if the company is still around in 10 years will I make a bunch of money? Or if I invest in something like Hannah Montana, will I not get anything in ten years since she won't be popular?

Blood Work

, Connelly introduces a new character, Terry McCaleb, who was a top man at the FBI until a heart ailment forced his early retirement. Now he lives a quiet life, nursing his new heart and restoring the boat on which he lives in Los Angeles Harbor. Although he isn't looking for any excitement, when Graciela Rivers asks him to investigate her sister Gloria's death, her story hooks him immediately: the new heart beating in McCaleb's chest is Gloria's.

As McCaleb investigates the evidence in the case, the suspected randomness of the crime gives way to an unsettling suspicion of a twisted intelligence behind the murder. Soon McCaleb finds himself on the trail of a killer more horrifying than anything he ever encountered before.
