In the home with neurodiverse children 24 hours at a time The Threads of Life

#1 This is not an episode on bad parenting or bad children, its an episode why we feel like bad parents and why our autistic and/or adhd and/or neurodiverse children are often made to feel this way. How us parents wish someone could come into our homes and simply observe and offer helpful advice on how to make getting through each 24 hr cycle easier + have someone who actually can witness and believe us and our children. Why its a challenge every single day and what a quick run through of 24 hours in the home is like.
