About This Episode: It's our first Father Friday!! Dad Brent was so vulnerable in sharing what it's like from a dad's perspective to raise a neurodivergent child with challenging behaviors. I'm so excited to you all to hear what he has to say - and if YOU know a dad who might want to share his story, send him this episode, and then have him reach out to me! Here's just some of what we discussed:

-Frightening febrile seizures
-Play therapy experience with a child with severe ADHD
-Hearing negative self talk with Mood Disregulation Disorder
-When your child is on a cocktail of drugs for physical and mental health
-Accepting your child isn't an extension of you and that you can only help them with acceptance
-Marriage counseling works - after objecting to it for a long time
-Realizing you have to parent him differently, and how weird that looks to everyone else
-Being on high alert all the time

 I ALWAYS welcome YOUR thoughts! Feel free to DM me on IG (@on.the.hard.days) or email me: [email protected]. This podcast is what it is because of YOU.
