The must-read guide to help your child deal with the fallout of remote learning and navigate todays high-stakes, high-stress education experience with effective strategies and tools to help students manage their mental health and reach their full potential in school and life from a child psychologist with over twenty years of experience.
The Disintegrating Student will quickly become an essential guide for every student and parent working to survive and thrive in the current education environment. Carolyn Lambert, Parent Coach, Nathans Waypoint
You know your child is bright. Until recently, school was fineeasy, even. Now, your son or daughter is struggling academically and emotionally. Falling grades, scattered work, assignments unfinished or not turned in, outbursts and upheaval...what is going on? Is it remote-learning, hybrid classes, ever changing COVID protocols? Or is it something else? And how can you help?
The truth is that many smart students are reaching a point where they feel overwhelmed and stressed out. As their grades drop, so does their self-esteem, and this combination of external and internal pressures can seem insurmountable. To make matters worse, students feel unable to ask for or accept help. In The Disintegrating Student, Jeannine Jannot, Ph.D. draws on her decades of experience as a school psychologist, educator, and student coach to explain the reasons for this increasingly common phenomenon. Dr. Jannot identifies the skill deficits and counterproductive behaviors of disintegrating students, and provides a complete toolbox of techniques and strategies to combat them.
Effective and science-based, these tools address the specific challenges faced by students and their parents, including:
* organization * time management * stress * study habits * sleep * mindset * emotional well-being* and screens.
Learn how to build trust, motivate, and encourage responsibility and problem solving. Empowering and engaging, The Disintegrating Student will show you how to help your child embrace whats going right, address whats going wrong, and develop the skills needed for success in school and in life.
Dr. Jannot manages to succinctly explain...what may be happening for your child, how to help overcome those obstacles, and maybe even adjust your own expectations without feeling like youre giving in. Successful students are more than just good grades, and this book is a literal primer for creating a strong foundation for success.
Krista Smith, Organizational Psychologist and mother of three (16, 14, and 10)

Acknowledgments
T HIS WILL OUT ME as the huge book nerd that I am, but I look forward to reading the acknowledgments at the end of books. Its true! Im curious to know how someone came to construct a story or share their thoughts. Maybe I needed assurance, before I ventured to write my own book, that you dont just wake up one day and churn out the perfect manuscript.
I wrote The Disintegrating Student because I found myself repeating so much of the same information, over and over again, to interested parties who were intrigued and wanted to know more. Its not a stretch to say that the inspiration for this book came from decades of incubation. Years of indulging my interests in child development, education, and parenting. These passions inspired me to create The Balanced Student , which led me to write the book. Funny how life works.
Im not sure I would ever have gotten into the rhythm of writing without advice from the writers in my life, Meredith Trotta and Kat Pattillo. Meredith advised me to write to my audience (parents) just as I would talk to them. And Kat told me to stop worrying about my words and write anything that came to mind without filtering. My husband and Kat also agreed to navigate school mornings without me so I could get some writing in before the start of the workday. Seven weeks later I had a 60,000+ word manuscript.
Roughly 20,000 of those words hit the road as my developmental editor Deborah Bancroft, unspiraled and shaped my convoluted draft into a cohesive, concise book. A talented high school student, Quinn McKeever, designed the original book cover. And I received helpful feedback and copyediting from my talented student intern, Katia Sergeeva.
A big thank-you to my first readers: Greg Becker, Marilee Hamilton, Susan Keenan, Carolyn Lambert, Ashley Loyd, Conner Martin, Beth OBrien Burke, Kat Pattillo, Maddie Pattillo, Pat Pattillo, Ryan Pattillo, Tom Pattillo, Lisa Reid, Sarah Rhodes, Kelly Ryan, Krista Smith, Kellie Taylor, Ken Taylor, Riley Welch, Amy Whittall, and Colt Whittall.
Less than a year after I self-published, editor Denise Silvestro from Kensington Publishing Corp. reached out to me, believing that this book and its message needed to reach a wider audience. It has been an absolute dream to work with Denise, publicist Ann Pryor, and publisher Lynn Cully.
Thank you to all of my coworkers at Peachtree Psychology who support me in so many ways. And a special thank-you to Susan Keenan for having a vision for my work and asking me to be part of something great.
Beyond their support as first readers, my Marble Jar friendships with Susan Keenan, Kellie Taylor, Marilee Hamilton, and Beth OBrien Burke have been as important to me as the air I breathe. I am beyond grateful for their support and inspiration, both personally and professionally.
I want to thank my parents, Ron and Connie Jannot, for showing me how to be a person in this world, and to live with integrity. Their love, support, and encouragement know no limit.
A huge thank-you to my husband, Tom Pattillo, for being a rock of support, tolerant as hell, and my best friend. He was an instrumental part of crafting the final manuscript, and always found a way to care on the days I found it hard to.
To my son, Jason Pattillo, who never took a breath outside my body, yet taught me more about myself than anyoneever.
And finally, to my children, Ryan Pattillo, Maddie Pattillo, and Kat Pattillothank you for the privilege of being your mom. Youve taught me how to be better. Youve taught me whats important. You are my heart.
A Final Note to Parents
W HEN I SPEAK TO GROUPS of parents, I always begin by expressing my concern that what Im going to tell them may trigger feelings of anxiety, regret, and even guilt as they think about their own parenting styles and experiences. I know this because I often feel the same way when I attend parent lectures. As parents, we all tend to be very hard on ourselves, and worry a lot about what we might be doing wrong. For this reason, Ill repeat what I said earlier: You are a rock star parent! You are trying. You are showing up. Every. Single. Day. And thats what matters most.
My intention in writing this book was to explain some of the forces affecting our students, from developmental to cultural influences. I truly believe that when parents and students have the right information and tools to support growth, the outcome will always be positive. Ive seen it time and time again. With a little guidance and help, struggling students get back on their feet and back on track stronger than ever.
Practicing the skills outlined in this book, in the areas of communication particularly, will help you maintain a positive attitude and be more tolerant of normal adolescent behaviors. Recognizing when your child needs help and getting them that help is key. Whether its coaching for study skills, counseling for anxiety, or treatment for depression. You are their advocate. Listen to their needs. Shake off any remnants you may have of a fixed mindset and be okay with asking for help. Model what you want your kids to see and learn. Be open and honest with them and be vulnerable. Let them learn from your successes and your failures. It is your most powerful tool.
Above all else, be patient. Be patient with yourself. Be patient with your child. Even the simplest change requires time to take hold and replace old ways of thinking and behaving. A concern I hear from mental health professionals is that too often parents come to them in crisis with their child, wanting a quick fix. The reality is that thought and behavior patterns that took years to develop do not yield to hours of intermittent therapy or coaching. Lasting changes require significant, long-term, commitment.
And now, its confession time: I am the mom in the story that opened the book. That is an account written by my college-age daughter about the way she remembers many mornings during high school.
Yikes!
So even though I live and breathe this stuff, and know enough about it to write a book, I still struggle with the ups and downs of parenting, just like everyone. But Im trying. Im improving. Im better today than I was yesterday, and Ill try to be even better tomorrow. This is all we can ask of ourselves, and it is all our children want from us.
