In this episode I spoke with a mom of a 4-year-old PDAer (Pathological Demand Avoidant) and a 10-month-old baby living in an apartment in Scotland.

She had just learned about PDA one month ago and had already made huge and brave changes in her home and parenting to support he son.

We discussed:

- How to start making a parenting paradigm shift if you are new to PDA.

- The importance of an experimental mindset as you are trying out new ways of supporting and accommodating your PDA child.

- How to pick your priorities for boundaries in the home. In this case we focused on safety around the baby, bedtime, and bathing once a week.

- How nervous system activation is cumulative over time (months and years) for PDA children and teens, which means we don't have to be perfect with accommodations, just consistent.

This episode is from the show we stream live on Fridays on our social media, "Parenting PDA Your Way." I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

With love,

Casey
