Show Notes
When siblings have different needs, what’s a parent to do?
In this episode of “In It,” hosts Gretchen Vierstra and Rachel Bozek talk with Dr. Ari Tuckman, a psychologist who works with families and couples. He shares tips for finding balance in parenting kids when one has a learning or thinking difference. And he talks about the importance of the idea that “fair doesn’t always mean equal.”
This is part two of a two-part series. In part one, we talked to Becca, a mom of two raising one child with ADHD and one without.

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.”
