Parenting children with diagnosed or suspected neurodivergences can bring additional challenges in many forms. You might find that all the “right ways” of doing things don’t work for your family; you might come up with ways of parenting that work beautifully for you, but attract criticism or suspicion from other people. If your children need accommodations and support, you might have to become an expert researcher, a tireless advocate, and an incredibly organised administrator, leaving not much time and emotional space to just be a parent, let alone to take care of yourself. This session will focus mainly on how to protect your own wellbeing and meet your own needs, while finding ways to parent that work for you and your family.
