I hope that you will find these articles and advice sheets interesting and helpful. They represent my thoughts in three areas that are most important to me:

Developing self-esteem
Dealing with sibling rivalry, and
Coping with learning disabilities.

In addition to the 3 articles that you can find on this website, I've also included links to pieces I've written that are on other websites. The two Great Schools links are interview format articles on anxiety in LD kids that I did with colleagues of mine. The article on iser.com is about "success attributes," those characteristics in kids with LD that seem to predict their becoming successful adults.

I'd love to hear what you think about any of these articles. Please write to me at drbruce@brucehirschphd.com. Also, check back periodically as I plan to add other articles from time to time.
