When Brilliance Meets Challenge (Chinese Edition) by Joyce Zhao
In an era of unprecedented resources and information transparency, why are more and more highly educated families falling into the trap of "the harder the parents try, the more the children break down"? Co-authored by Joyce Zhao and her 17-year-old son, Joshua, this book offers a dual perspective from mother and son. It provides a raw, authentic account of a Twice-Exceptional (2E) family's journey from conflict and misunderstanding to deep connection and healing. Moving from Singapore to Silicon Valley, they gradually came to realize a profound truth: many parents try to use conventional standards to "fix" their children's differences, completely overlooking that the very traits labeled as "problems" are often inextricably linked to the child's innate talent, sensitivity, and creativity. Throughout the book, Joshua shares the raw, unfiltered feelings and observations of a teenager, offering vital insights and perspectives. Meanwhile, Joyce honestly reflects on her own path as a mother-confronting her past anxiety, need for control, and ultimate awakening. Featuring "fireside chats" with global experts-including Dr. Li-Rong Lilly Cheng, Professor Emerita at San Diego State University-and rooted in their firsthand experiences across Singapore and the United States, this book systematically compiles a wealth of practical resources and insights on supporting 2E and neurodivergent individuals. This is more than just a book about education; it is a profound dialogue about understanding, acceptance, and connection. True love is not about fixing a child, but truly seeing them.| SKU | Unavailable |
