From Diagnosis to Understanding: Parenting a Neurodivergent Child
In this episode of the podcast, Jacqueline and her husband discuss their personal experiences with their oldest son, who has been diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Recorded in the comfort of their family room, they share insights into their journey of understanding their son's neurological differences, highlighting the challenges and triumphs they face as a family. The couple reflects on the initial emotional responses to the diagnosis, the significance of early intervention and therapy, and their ongoing efforts to adapt and provide support tailored to their son's needs. The episode sets the stage for an upcoming discussion with Kari Baker, founder of Kind Families, for further exploration into neurodivergence in children. This intimate conversation offers a window into the daily lives of parents navigating the complexities of raising a child with invisible neurological differences.
Disclaimer: the first half of this episode unfortunately has some audio quality issues thanks to a very tired mom and a mishap with technology... IYKYK.
