19. How to take the stress out of the festive season Special Needs Supermom podcast

    • Opvoeding

Imagine you are an anxious kid, set in his or her ways. Now combine that with the festive season. First there is Halloween, one parade of darkness filled with creepy masks. Then comes Thanksgiving, long travels in a cramped place - lots of family that says you need to interact (because it’s fun!) and ‘that you just have to act normal (what’s that?)’. After which that creepy elf suddenly appears at your house watching everything you do. Have I mentioned Christmas is literally one big pile of surprises? While you hate surprises?! As supermom you can be torn between wanting to hang onto old traditions, the feelings of your kid, and adjusting to family expectations. This episode is how to make the last months of the year as pleasant as possible. For everyone.
