Publisher's summary

Between the worry, the doctor's appointments, and the thousand small challenges of everyday life, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and exhausted. The idea of showing abundant love to every member of your family can feel like a daunting task. Jolene Philo has been there. And in this wise, warm, practical guide, she and Dr. Gary Chapman show you how the five love languages can help strengthen your marriage and family life-whatever your needs. Sharing dozens of stories from parents of children with special needs children, they teach you how to:

  • Protect your marriage amidst the stress
  • Discover and speak the love language of your child-even if they're nonverbal
  • Accommodate the love languages for children with special needs and disabilities
  • Show love to every member of your family when you have limited time, money, and energy

Having a special needs child shouldn't mean sacrificing a full family life. Learn to share love abundantly no matter your circumstances.

CPR for special needs families

This book is one of the most important pieces of information I have come across in my journey as a special needs parent.
It’s worth every minute you put into absorbing this info.

No new information

I already read Dr Chapman's 5 love languages and the 5 love languages for children and loved them both. I was hoping to gain further insight to the 5 love languages of my 2 special-needs children. Unfortunately, this book did not help. The focus was on keeping marriage healthy, getting help when needed, and the best way to communicate to professionals working with your child. I already read/heard this information from the countless other books I've read. Though there is a discussion on how to ascertain the love language of your special needs child, the advice was not any more helpful than what was described in Dr Chapman's 5 love languages for children. Also, I felt the woman's voice was not audio-book worthy. I increased the speed to 1.5x which helped a little.
