Abstract
Tourette Syndrome, a neurological “tic” disorder characterized by involuntary muscular movements and vocal sounds, can be psychologically devastating and unbearable for the school‐age child. Through the help and support of educational and medical professionals, children and their families can learn to accept and cope with the uncontrollable, bizarre behavior of the Tourette Syndrome.Keywords
