Listen "Ep 23 - Discussing child to parent aggression - when frustration and dysregulation becomes violence"
Episode Synopsis
In this next episode in our Taboo Topics series, we discuss the realities of child to parent violence, its prevalence amongst children with neurodivergence and its impact.
Let’s start by being clear, a child who is neurodivergent is not automatically violent or aggressive, but some are. And it’s parents and siblings who are often impacted by this violence.
So how does it happen? We talk to Lee Tempest from VisAble about what it looks and feels like using lived experience.
For those experiencing child to parent violence, you are not alone. We will also share any agencies that you may be able to speak to.
This won’t be an easy episode, but it’s a very important one.
