The siblings of SEND children carry things too.
In this episode, we’re talking about the sibling side of SEND. The guilt, the pressure, the protectiveness, the resentment, the maturity beyond their years… and the constant worry about whether we’re getting the balance right.
We talk about “glass children”, the siblings who often become the easy ones because they have to be, and how SEND can shape the whole family in ways people don’t always see.
This one is honest, emotional, and probably one a lot of parents will relate to.
Because sometimes the children saying the least are carrying the most.
