    Advocating and Understanding

    * Please note - There are some technical difficulties with the sound on this episode. It does not impact the ability the hear the full episode. Never underestimate the power of your gut feel. When you have a child who is struggling at school and you feel it as a parent you act. Sometimes the system can say "it's OK they'll catch up", or "don't worry yet, it's early".  Today's podcast is all about this very story. Today I speak with Philipa, she is a mom of two boys living in the UK. She felt early on that one of her children was really struggling but kept being told everything was fine. The Pandemic in 2020 gave her, even more, clarity on the situation when she began to see what a day of schooling was for her children. This episode explores: - How to ask questions - What signs to look for - How to support your child through hard times - Supporting your child in understanding their learning Philipa has taken her own personal life experience and what she has learned from supporting her children and becoming a life coach. She can be found at www.safeandsupported.co.uk. If you are in the UK and looking for information on Dyslexia, check out British Dyslexia Association.
