While living in the moment comes across as escape, denial and unhealthy, being in the moment is catching the spirit of time with deep and mutual interaction. The moment is the only time we have and if we are not in it we could be losing a lot in our life. The past, the future, or both may have captured us. In this case, salvation may be based on understanding the philosophy of the moment and trying to get into the present and be a part of the moment. This book has been prepared to open the doors of this process to you. Awareness is everything, knowing and not knowing are not the same. You control what you know, and what you don't know controls you.

During the project process, interviews were held with many drug addicts and their families. Internet addicted individuals were supported. Cognitive-behavioral-based group and individual therapy sessions were conducted. The experiences gained were filtered through the examination of scientific publications and works, and were compiled into a book in an understandable language with the aim of guidance. The main purpose of this book you hold in your hands is to increase the awareness of you, parents, by revealing the effects of the attitudes and behaviors of parents or other family members on the perception of self and the outside world formed in the world of children and young people, and how these increase their addiction potential, and by revealing concrete events in this process. .

Figen Karaceylan Çakmakcı “Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder” (ADHD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder that can disrupt an individual's social life, academic life and family relationships. Although it is a disease that can completely change the future of the child if it is not treated and intervened correctly, satisfactory answers begin to emerge as a result of the right approach and appropriate interventions.
In my 20-year career as a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, I have experienced many times that only drug therapy is not sufficient in the treatment of Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder. The fact that family attitudes and the interventions of the teacher in the classroom are as important as psychopharmacological treatment has motivated me to write such a book.
With this book, it is aimed to inform about the mistakes that we know to be true about Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, which is heard by everyone and perhaps defined as today's fashion disease. In addition, it is aimed both to ensure that children with ADHD are understood and to strengthen effective behavior management for families and teachers by providing accurate information and tips to our families and teachers about the relationship between ADHD and learning, which causes misunderstandings and prejudices.
We hope that this book, which offers solutions suitable for the needs of children who are our future, will be a useful resource for everyone who reads it.
Ahu Baytok A Roadmap for Adults Before Starting A Dramatic Fairy Tale

A Dramatic Fairy Tale is a book that goes beyond traditional fairy tales that are merely read or listened to. What makes this book unique is that your child becomes mentally and physically active, while you take on the role of a guide. In other words, every reader who engages with this fairy tale will shape their own story by using their imagination.

With A Dramatic Fairy Tale, you will be able to carry out drama activities with your children at home or in the classroom. When using this fairy tale book, which incorporates drama techniques, you should remember that the leading role belongs to your child.

Before starting A Dramatic Fairy Tale, the first and most important step is for you, as adults, to prepare in advance and internalize the story. This familiarity will help you give clear guidance and will enable your child to more easily identify with the main character and actively shape the fairy tale.

Another important step when beginning A Dramatic Fairy Tale is to use clear, simple, and understandable language when giving instructions to your child. If necessary, you may explain the instructions in more detail and offer hints—but you should never provide direct ideas. Our goal is for children to complete the fairy tale by generating their own original ideas.

Most importantly, during the activity, even ideas and suggestions that may seem simple should be acknowledged and met with positive feedback. Whether their ideas seem wild or unusual, they are their ideas—and every thought they express is extremely valuable to us. If you wish, you may further expand the instructions. Adding your own creative touches can make the fairy tale even more enjoyable.

Please remember: our children are the world’s best “PLAY EXPERTS.”

Bullying behaviors of various types (verbal, physical, emotional, racist, hiding, behavior disrupting, taking/destroying something belonging to someone else and sexual) seen at school and in virtual environments adversely affect the social, emotional and psychological development of children and adolescents. and cause legal problems.
These negative effects of bullying behaviors are not limited to childhood and adolescence, but it is seen that they negatively affect important personality traits such as self-esteem, self-confidence, psychological resilience, psychological well-being and feelings of love, respect, tolerance and trust in bilateral human relations.

Akif Avcu, Çınar Kaya, Çiğdem Demir Çelebi, Derya Eryiğit, Erdem Sevim, Halil Ekşi, K. Gamze Yaman, Mustafa Otrar, Müge Yüksel, Simel Parlak, Tuğba Türk Kurtça It is obvious that the presence of a child with special needs at home affects all family members. The financial and moral efforts of parents to support the developmental processes of their children can sometimes lead to very tiring experiences. During this time, the needs of siblings with normal development also appear, but these needs can be ignored. It should not be forgotten that having a sibling with special needs can affect a child with normal development from career choice to character. When the domestic and international literature is examined, it is seen that support groups, psychological counseling and guidance activities are mostly focused on parents, but there is not much work on siblings. The book "Living with My Special Sister", whose main purpose is to fill this gap, includes a psychoeducation program to support secondary and high school students with special needs siblings in their problems, as well as psychological counselors, psychologists, special education specialists who work/will work in the field within the scope of rehabilitation counseling. and aims to be a guide for social workers. In the five different chapters in the book, a content that will provide clues about both the social perspective and the emotions experienced by family members and their coping methods is aimed. This study, which is planned without forgetting that the sibling with normal development, as well as the parents, has a common denominator, will further strengthen the family system.

Specific Learning Disability (SLD); It is a neurobiologically based disorder that is often noticed with the beginning of the child's academic life, but if it is not detected and intervened by specialists, its lifelong effect compels the person to struggle in all areas of his life, and genetic and environmental factors are effective. The definition of "DYSLExia" is used more often than "Specific Learning Disorder", as it is often defined as only the difficulty experienced in the "reading" skill.
Although it is sometimes defined as "disorder", sometimes "disease", sometimes "difficulty", sometimes "difference", it is a condition independent of intelligence that seriously affects both social and academic life of the individual, but in some cases it is a mis-perceived "intelligence retardation". is a hassle.
ÖÖG; Since it is a difficulty that affects language development and use, verbal and written expression, literacy and mathematics skills, it can lead to school failure and additional school adjustment problems. Considering the importance of school life in the child's mental development, when not correctly detected and intervened, the accompanying Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, Anxiety Disorders and Behavioral Disorders are often overlooked comorbid conditions and pave the way for the child to experience emotional trauma.
As a result of nearly 10 years of experience and experience, it was decided to write this book. Practical practices of a team of Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists and Child Psychologists were shared. I hope it will be used as a reference book about what are known to be true about SLD, the importance of early detection and correct intervention, and what the legal rights of the child with SLD are…
