About the Authors

Gina (Terrasi) Gallagher and Patricia Terrasi are sisters who are among the many parents raising children with disabilities. 
Fed up with listening to parents brag about their “perfect” children while never asking about theirs, the sisters decided to seek therapy by writing a book. The result? Shut Up about your Perfect Kid! The Movement of Imperfection, their humorous and heartwarming stories of raising imperfect children in a world preoccupied with perfection.
