Episode Synopsis

Welcome to the first episode of "The Child of Glass," a podcast dedicated to shedding light on the experiences of typically developing siblings of individuals with special needs or disabilities. Known as "glass children," these siblings often find themselves navigating unique emotional and social landscapes as they grow up alongside their brothers and sisters who require extra attention, care, and resources that the glass child themselves may not be receiving.
In this episode, we dive into what "glass children" really are and explore the reasons why these siblings are often unnoticed, as if made of glass. Join us as we discuss the common challenges faced by glass children, the importance of recognizing their experiences, and why it's crucial to promote an environment where they feel seen, heard, and supported.
