You’re doing everything you can to help your neurodivergent child, teen, or young adult grow into an independent adult, but what if some of the things you’re doing to help are actually holding them back?

It’s not because you don’t care. It’s because so many of us are working from outdated ideas about what builds independence, and those ideas just don’t work for neurodivergent development.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through five common patterns that loving, well-meaning parents fall into, and how they can unintentionally keep your child stuck. We’ll zoom in on one of those patterns and give you a practical shift you can make right away.

If you recognize yourself in this episode, it’s a sign you’ll enjoy our upcoming workshop, The Independence Pathway: From Home to Thriving.

What You’ll Learn:

• 5 parenting patterns that can quietly undermine independence
• Why solving problems for your child may do more harm than good
• A simple shift to start mentoring instead of managing
• The key mindset change that supports real growth
• How to get support that actually fits your neurodivergent loved one’s brain
