Listen "Why ‘Normal Parenting Tips’ Don’t Work for Neurodivergent Kids — And Why That Doesn’t Make You Soft "
Episode Synopsis
Hey friends — today we’re untangling one of the biggest misconceptions in parenting advice: the idea that neurodivergent kids should respond to “normal” discipline and behavior strategies the same way neurotypical kids do. Spoiler alert: they don’t. Because their brains don’t.In this episode, we walk through the developmental science, the nervous system responses, the missed educational gaps, and the cultural misconceptions that leave ND parents feeling judged, misunderstood, and alone.This episode is especially for parents who’ve ever been told they’re “too soft,” “too sensitive,” or “enabling” their child — when really, you’re the only one actually parenting from neuroscience instead of outdated beliefs.If this episode resonates with you, here’s how you can support this single neurodivergent mama and help me keep this podcast going:💖 Join the NeuroSpicy Squad on PatreonYou’ll get video episodes, life updates, the full journaling library, and access to our cozy ND community where you never have to mask.(And remember — signing up on desktop avoids Apple’s mobile fee!)🛒 Shop my Etsy store this holiday season: TheNeuroSpicyMama.Etsy.comEvery purchase helps support me and my boys while I continue building this safe corner of the internet for our community.Your support literally keeps this podcast alive, and I’m endlessly grateful for each and every one of you.
