Every parent knows the adage “Little kids, little problems. Big kids, big problems.” Some may agree, while others believe the saying trivializes the challenges our little ones may present. What’s clear, though, is that when our kids enter young adulthood, we cannot force them to do anything. We can suggest, advise, encourage. But we cannot require our young adult children to eat healthy foods, turn off the screens, write a thank you letter after a job interview.
When our young adult children are neurodiverse, the issues families face can feel more potent.
That’s why I am developing workshops to support parents whose neurodiverse young adult children are struggling.
