Parenting the Long Game with Jason


Listen Later

When your neurodivergent child, teen, or young adult is struggling—meltdowns, shutdowns, missed deadlines, constant reminders—it’s tempting to look for the fastest fix.

But parenting for quick results often comes at the expense of long-term growth.

In this episode, Jason shares why a developmental approach—focusing on emotional growth, ownership, and sustainable neural pathways—is far more powerful than a behavioral one. You’ll hear why playing the long game means meeting your child where they are developmentally, not where the world says they “should” be, and how that shift can transform mental health, college readiness, and life skills.

If you’ve ever wondered where to invest your time and energy for the biggest impact, this conversation will help you step out of fear-based reactions and into a mentoring mindset that fosters confidence, resilience, and lasting success.
