Listen Later

Dr Maryhan, a clinical psychologist and esteemed fellow podcaster, joins us to celebrate the 100th episode of the SEND Parenting Podcast. Have you ever wondered how to raise neurodiverse children within the UK education system without losing your mind? This milestone episode offers a treasure trove of insights as Dr. Maryhan shares wisdom from her upcoming book, "How Not to Screw Up Your Kids." We tackle the intricate dance of parenting in a world where children are moulded by influences beyond our control, aiming to bolster resilience through the power of community support.

Traditional discipline methods often fail to equip children for real-world challenges. We promise a fresh perspective on parenting, focusing on replacing punitive measures with natural consequences. Learn how this approach fosters independent decision-making while nurturing a cooperative family environment. Dr Maryhan and I delve into practical examples, like making a bed, to illustrate how meaningful, value-aligned consequences can help cultivate responsibility in our children, turning their natural curiosity into a powerful tool for growth.

Parenting is undoubtedly a tough journey, but it's easier with self-care and a strong community. We explore personal strategies for managing stress, from the cathartic power of journaling to the refreshing benefits of outdoor activities. The "bucket" metaphor emerges as a shared language to gauge emotional capacity, emphasising the beauty in messy, imperfect parenting. This episode is a heartfelt nod to our collective journey with our supportive tribe, reminding us that every small victory is a stepping stone toward raising resilient, confident individuals. Tune in to discover how these insights can transform your parenting journey.
