Tax Tips for Special Needs Parents - Are You Ready?

 

Join me for my next Free Lunchtime Teleseminar!

Surprisingly Simple Tax Tips
For Parents of Children with Special Needs

With Special Guest Amy Young

Thursday, March 11, 12 noon Eastern Time

Tax season can seem overwhelming when you have a child with special needs. There are exemptions, deductions, and itemizations ... receipts, schedules, and forms ... and there's that looming April 15th deadline that gets closer every day! But with four weeks still left, you can still get through tax time with more organization and less stress than you thought possible!

Join us as special guest Amy Young shares valuable tax tips specifically for parents of children with special needs, and answers questions like:

  • How do I organize all my tax stuff? (It's easier than you think!)
  • What expenses can I itemize? (You may be surprised at some of these!)
  • What if I get audited?
  • What forms do I have to fill out?
  • and more!

Amy will de-mystify the tax process for special needs parents, saving you time, frustration, and quite possibly saving you money with the information and methods she'll be sharing in this teleseminar.

Free Lunchtime Teleseminars last 30 - 45 minutes, with time for discussion and your questions. The call will be recorded, so if you can't make it to the call, no worries!  We'll email you the link to the recording, so you can listen later on at your convenience.  Note: you must register below in order to receive the call recording.

To register for the call, enter your first name and primary email address below:

Upon registering, you will instantly receive the phone number and access code to call in at the scheduled date and time.

I look forward to having you on the call!

You Can Manage Crisis Times More Easily - Learn How This Friday!

Quick Reminder:
Managing Crisis Times When You Have a Child
with Special Needs
Register today!
  
Crisis times come with the territory when you have a child with special needs.  They come in all sizes: from major crises like medical emergencies, all the way down to the small crises that can throw off your day, week, or even month.  What crisis times all have in common is that they can be so unpredict-able, and can throw the entire family into chaos!
 
The good news is, you can be prepared to handle whatever comes your way next time!  Join me this Friday at 11:00 am Eastern time for my most popular teleseminar: Managing Crisis Times When You Have a Child with Special Needs.  I'll give you a complete system you can put into place right now -- and lead you step-by-step through an easy-to-follow process that will have you feeling confident and in control whenever a crisis time comes along.  I'll also give you strategies to stay centered and present during the crisis, and tips to help you and your family will bounce back with greater ease when it's over.  You'll take away your own Crisis Management Plan, ready to use at a moment's notice!
 
Register Today
This is the only time I'll be offering this teleseminar in 2010, so don't miss out!  Upon registering, you'll receive an extensive handout with tips, steps, worksheets, checklists, and more.  You'll also receive free gifts!   
 
And if you can't make the live call, no worries.  Everyone registered receives a recording of the teleseminar, so you can listen later at your convenience.
 
And by the way, the discount price from last week is still in effect.  (After repeatedly forgetting to take the discount off the website, I decided to just leave it there!)  I hope you'll take advantage of this special price - you'll save $12.  Plus, the bonus gifts more than pay for the price of the teleseminar!
 
To learn more and register, go to:
 
And if you know any moms or dads who might like to join us, please feel free to forward this announcement to them. 
 
I look forward to having you on the call!

Swine Flu: Danger is Much Greater for Children with Special Needs

As you've probably heard by now, 76 children have died from H1N1 this Fall, and most of them have been children with developmental disabilities or an underlying medical condition.

In the special needs parent community, there's confusion and fear around one question: should we have our children vaccinated?

Despite the alarm bells that may be going off in your head right now at the mention of a vaccine, the concensus among doctors at this point is that it's safer to vaccinate than not to.

10 Great Traits of Parents of Children with Special Needs

This article has really struck a chord with my blog and newsletter readers, so I thought I'd share it with everyone here at DisabilityResourceExchange as well. If you're a mom or dad of a child with special needs, I suspect you will see yourself in this list of 10 traits that we all have in common!

10. Camaraderie: meet someone new + find out they have a child with special needs = instant friend.

9. Sense of humor – it carries us through even the worst of days.

8. Appreciation – for what's tr… Continue

You might be putting Descarte before the horse, but still be in essence correct. Children from the bottom tier of life aren't diagnosed for anything because they can't get health care, proper food, decent shelter, proper clothing or even affection.…
