It was really helpful to me. I read it well before my son started college and would have re-read if he'd had any issues during his first year, but he hasn't, so I haven't needed to. I thought the authors did a good job of helping parents interpret a child's communications, as in, "When she's saying this, it might really mean that." Or, "When he's asking for this, he might really need this other thing." My son is so straight-forward, we don't need to translate, but my friends with D's seem to need more help with this. Over-generalization, I know.
