"Some may just see a whiny [--] year old but this is what I see #shorts #shorts #parenting I came across this clip of this [--] year old upset and the caption was something like if you're currently pregnant this is what you have to look forward to in [--] years. I get the joke as most parents would but I wanted to share a different take on this. When watched this clip I saw a [--] year old little girl experiencing a lot of emotions. While she's obviously upset she still manages to articulate that she's mad. Instead of mom just responding the the behavior she listens and gives her daughter a safe space to"

"A Really Important Lesson I Learn While Raising My Kids with Autism and ADHD Sometimes what looks like laziness or lack of discipline is really forgetfulness or distraction.
