ZERO PLAGIARISM

TOPIC: Tourette Syndrome

Learning disorders and motor disorders can be difficult for parents to understand. They often have many questions that go unanswered and can create considerable misunderstanding. This misunderstanding can damage the child/parent relationship. The PMHNP can answer questions and provide guidance for the family in order to help reduce the uncertainty of the disorders.

For the Discussion, you will work with your group again to develop a Parent Guide for your assigned disorder.
