More from In It: Raising Kids Who Learn Differently
In this final episode of In It, we talk with Jessica Shaw, who’s launching a new podcast called TBD — it’s about the beautiful roller coaster that is parenting neurodivergent kids.
When a teacher says your child is “too smart” for special education services, it doesn’t feel like a compliment — it’s more like a roadblock!
Mornings can be chaos, especially when neurodivergence is part of the mix — for your kids or for you. This week, we’re joined by Jon Zeitlin from HabitCoach, who’s been in the thick of it. Jon and his son both have ADHD, so they’ve had to build routines that work for brains like theirs. Spoiler: It starts the night before.
As a parent, it’s heartbreaking to hear your child say “I’m stupid.”
What happens when we stop talking about kids with learning differences — and start listening to them? Kids are the experts in their own experience. When we truly listen, we all learn.
