 The title is misleading August 6, 2002
The title of the book and its description here made me think the book would be relevant to all cognitive disabilities. However, the bulk of the book is about Down syndrome. The anecdotes are about people with Down syndrome and information about reproduction, etc. is specific to Down syndrome. Also, although the anecdotes kind of give you a warm fuzzy feeling, there is not a whole lot of practical information about teaching your child anything related to sexuality, dating, the birds and the bees, etc.
 Beautiful, practical, funny March 22, 2000

This book is a gem. The combined efforts of Melberg Schwier and Hingsburger have produced a lively resource that parents of a son or daughter at any age or with any kind of disability will treasure. It contains not only practical information about sexuality and sexual development, but is humourous and moving. The first-person accounts by parents and by people with disabilities sprinkled throughout the book are a creative way for parents to share ideas, strategies, worries with one another. The stories of people with disabilities give us all some hope for humanity. An excellent effort and a treasure to have.
