Inhaltsangabe

A child with special needs can dominate a family's time and resources. Parents often give that child most of their attention, and understandably so. But the other children in the family notice. Siblings learn to ask for less and complain less. They start to feel invisible, like glass. Some of these "glass children" develop real problems of their own, such as anxiety, depression, and resentment.
This highly practical guide is written by Dr. Peter Thompson, a licensed school psychologist with over two decades of clinical experience with children and families. Out of the Glass gives parents and clinicians a clear, research-backed way to understand these siblings and support them so they can thrive. At the center of the book is the Wheel of Strength, an easy-to-use six-part model, paired with a Ten-Point Plan. Together, they turn research into concrete steps a family can actually use.
The book is built for busy parents and practitioners. Chapters are short, easy to read, and free of jargon. Most readers can move through the full text in just a single sitting. Despite how common and important this topic is, very few resources provide the specific guidance parents need for their other children.
Out of the Glass is Volume One in the Sibling Strength Series. Companion volumes speak directly to teen and school-age siblings themselves, giving the whole family a shared language for something that's too often carried in silence.
