Publisher's Summary

An out-of-control son. An outcast mother. Is it ever acceptable to dislike your own child?

Tom is hyperactive, with severe behavioral issues.

In infancy, he screams all night. As a toddler, he is destructive and fearless. At school, he is disruptive and lacking in concentration.

As he grows, so does the havoc, reaching a crescendo in his teenage years. In her quest for support, Sarah consults every specialist available, only to be met with blame and indifference.

This compulsive story of an outcast family challenges the "I blame the parents" view. It is a must-listen for any parent who struggles and feels alone.

A gripping story of family anguish and a mother’s solitary fight against the system.
