Episode 27Have you ever felt like the current schooling system just does not suit or help your child? This week we talk to the enlightening Dr. Naomi Fisher, psychiatrist and author of A Different Way to Learn: Neurodiversity and Self-Directed Education, about how to think about educating and parenting our neurodiverse children differently.   Dr. Fisher shares her expertise on the detrimental effects on the mental health and self-esteem of young developing minds when they find themselves falling short of a rigid system of timelines and expectations. We discuss how we, as parents, we can combat this and best support our young people in finding success in their own way.This brings us to the focus of our episode - the powerful concept of self-directed education, which allows children to follow their own passions and interests. Tune in to discover how you can empower your child by creating an environment that offers opportunities for exploration, autonomy, and critical thinking, while avoiding the pitfalls of over-controlling their learning experience.Click here for Dr. Naomi Fisher's websiteEnter NFISHER20 to get 20% off new book A different Way to Learn Neurodiversity and Self Directed Education click here Jessica Kingsley Publisher💬 Connect with Us 🎄 Early Christmas Gift: Join my free webinar on Keeping Calm During the Holidays 📅 Tuesday 9 December at 12:00 pm (UK time) 👉 Click here to receive the Zoom details. 🌱 Join our SEND Parenting Private WhatsApp Community — a safe space to share, learn, and feel supported by parents who truly understand. ⚡ Ready to go deeper?
