"PDA kids don't bend...they break. And I'm not breaking my kid again."  Today's episode with mom guest, Sandy, is REALLY, really good. Don't skip this one!

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How the professionals *missed* the signs early on
  • How girls' neurodivergence often goes under the radar
  • What PDA looked like in her young son
  • What school refusal looked like with a supportive school
  • The lack of professional support about PDA, especially in emergencies
  • How she became a PDA leader in Mothers Together
