Authors Gina Gallagher and Patricia Konjoian present “Shut Up About Your Perfect Kid – The Movement of Imperfection.”

On a perfection-preoccupied planet, sisters Gina Gallagher and Patricia Konjoian, dare to openly speak about the frustrations, stigmas, joys and challenges they face as parents of children with disabilities (one with Asperger’s syndrome, the other with bipolar disorder).

This refreshingly frank and enjoyable presentation, based on their book, Shut Up About Your Perfect Kid, A Survival Guide for Ordinary Parents of Special Children, has participants laughing out loud and celebrating the joys, gifts, and milestones of special children.

The Massachusetts-based authors speak at parenting, mental health, and educational conferences around the country and have been featured by CNN and other national radio and print media outlets.
