Question : My daughter is 17 and has neurological problems since birth. I have read about the Disconnected Child by Dr XXXXXXX Melillo and would love to enter her into a Brain Balance center because of all of the benefits I have read. However, the center is just too far away and she can not tolerate the drive (total drive time 2 hours and she would have to go 3 times a week. Do you know if there are any other online programs that would help her and be customized to fit her needs? Something that she could do over a period of time.

My daughter who was born at 28 weeks is very delayed in reading, writing and has ADD. She is very social and has been tested at Brain Balance. Her scores showed her significant delay and they felt she was ideal for the program. She needs work on both sides of the brain. I was an educator for 12 years and know that I can help her if I can find online courses that best suit her needs.
