"There's always advocating, and it's always exhausting."

About This Episode: It's Father Friday!!!  I had a great conversation with Dad Kellen and I just loved what he had to say about raising a neurodivergent child. Here are just some of the things we discussed:

-Feeling helpless (from a dad's perspective)
-Matching your partner's energy in raising kids together
-Getting over the initial shock of a diagnosis
-Helping ND kids reach their full potential
-Taking an interest in your kid's hobbies
-Getting on the same page with everyone who works with your child
