On The Hard Days

Ep. 108 Mom Katrina Bandeli On The Guilt of Having a Temper With a Neurodivergent Kid - Or Is It Just Overwhelm?


Listen Later

About This Episode: Mom Katrina is sharing so vulnerably what mom guilt feels like when you're raising a neurodivergent kid. She put so much blame on herself for a lot of her child's struggles (and for losing her temper), and we unpacked that feeling in this conversation because it's just so relatable. Here are just some of the topics we discussed:

-Relief from getting a diagnosis
-Guilt from being a "yelling" mom
-Temper vs. Overwhelm
-Worrying about your neurodivergent child's future
-Researching in depth to meet your child's needs
-Why do people expect children to grow out of behaviors?
-Hesitation to share diagnosis with others for fear of judgement

Please shower Katrina with love and support by SHARING this episode with a mom who needs to hear her story!
