Sitting in a Car

Show Notes

Speaking to kids in general about sensitive topics is hard.

If you have a kid on the spectrum, you may question if this is still appropriate.

And it most definitely is.

Saying more as early as you can is how you protect them and support them in their uniqueness.

I’m giving 3 recommendations in this episode of how to chat with your kid, who’s on the spectrum.
