Confessional and frequently hilarious, in Regular Sucks a neuro-diverse writer, advocate, and father meditates about his life, offering the radical message that we should stop trying to fix people and begin empowering them to achieve success.

Jonathan Mooney blends anecdote, expertise, and memoir to provide a new mode of considering how exactly we live and learn-individually, uniquely, and with advantages and upshots to all sorts of brain and body. As a neuro-diverse child about Normal Sucks: How exactly to Live, Learn, and Thrive Beyond your Lines diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD who didn’t learn to examine until he was twelve, the realization that that he wasn’t the problem-the system and the concept of normal were-saved Mooney’s lifestyle and fundamentally transformed his outlook. Right here he explores the toll that getting not normal takes on children and adults when they’re caught in conditions that label them, shame them, and tell them, actually in subtle methods, they are the problem. But, he argues, if we can reorient the ways in which we consider diversity, skills, and disabilities, we are able to start a revolution.

A highly popular presenter, Mooney has been inspiring audiences with his story and his message for pretty much two decades. Right now he’s ready to share what he’s learned from parents, teachers, researchers, and children in a book that’s as very much a survival information as it is definitely a call to action. Whip-smart, insightful, and utterly inspiring-and movingly framed like a letter to his personal young sons, as they function to discover their ways in the world-this audiobook will upend what we should call normal and empower people.
