This podcast comes with a little ears warning.In this podcast we will be discussing themes around puberty and will be using language that may not be appropriate for little ears. If you have a little person listening with you, we would suggest listening to this podcast in private.On today’s episode of the Now and the Future Podcast, we chat with Ee-Lin from Planet Puberty to discuss puberty for people with an intellectual disability. Puberty can be a confusing time for young people as well as parents. Changes to bodies and hormones can lead to behaviors and feelings that are foreign and a bit scary. It is important to maintain an open and honest dialogue about what is happening, but that can be a bit trickier when your young person also has an intellectual disability.Ee-Lin chats openly about strategies and resources that are available to help make this transition into young adulthood.If you wanted to explore the resources discussed in the webinar, head to Planet Puberty website which you can find at the following link - www.planetpuberty.org.auIf you want to join the Planet Puberty event with Down Syndrome Queensland on July 6th at 7pm, you can find more information about it at the following link - www.downsyndrome.org.au/blog/event/planet-puberty-information-sessionMentioned in this episode:Down Syndrome Queensland
