Drs. Brock and Fernette Eide use their impressive backgrounds in neurology and education to debunk the standard deficit-based approach to dyslexia.

Over the years, all the dyslexic people I have met in my life have a knack for something other than reading and writing.

The dyslexic brain has been a mystery to many and a source of understanding for only a few. When we look into the ways to identify dyslexia and all its accompanying ramifications, it’s nothing new that we will run into difficulties, some severe, some not so severe.

School discipline is broken. Too often, the kids who need our help the most are viewed as disrespectful, out of control, and beyond help, and are often the recipients of our most ineffective, most punitive interventions. These students - and their parents, teachers, and administrators - are frustrated and desperate for answers. Dr. Ross W. Greene, author of the acclaimed book The Explosive Child, offers educators and parents a different framework for understanding challenging behavior.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?"

But living a brave life is not always easy: We are, inevitably, going to stumble and fall.

When Duke University gave free iPods to the freshman class in 2003, critics said they were wasting their money.

Many of us know we're putting too much pressure on our kids - and on ourselves - but how do we get off this crazy train? We want our children to succeed, to be their best, and to do their best, but what if they are not on board?

And each year only a small percentage of them will land jobs that justify and reward their investments.
