Episode Synopsis

#1 Parenthood, for all of us, from the moment you fall pregnant and finish classes on how to actually have a baby, has no manual, you have to just figure it out, from teething all the way through school, puberty young adults the works. Having a neurodiverse/autistic/sen/disabled child adds a whole other layer of intensity and concern. As a SEN parent it is isolating, confidence sapping and so draining just simply trying to sift through, process and follow advice and systems you are forced into versus staying focused on the child, plus then having to prove their needs in order to get the help they deserve. Parents should not underestimate what they are going through nor assume they should indeed be coping and/or their child does not warrant the support they seek simply because it is not forthcoming or they are being told no. #2 N/A#3 Intro 0:00#4 #5 Peter Vermeulen as guest on 'Uniquely Human' Podcast. 6 Calls to Action:7# N/A#8 Next Episode: My first guests!
