That's kind of like a little mini journal.
We do have an amazing new journal that you can get through the website too, you know, to work on nurturing that in yourself and and and your understanding of that.
And then everything, all the exercises in there are the same things you can do with your kids.
The second piece of our I'm differently wired, you know, I've been thinking about this a lot, um, when it comes to my son, true, is again.
If you are already noticing you're different, right, in the school environment or in the community because you have a different way of learning or you have, you know, a different style, all of that stuff.
You have different, you know, variant neurology, whatever's going on.
Introduce these concepts to them.
You know, talk about.
the difference between self esteem and self respect.
And that, you know, we're gonna focus as a family on self respect because we know also that
People with self-respect are more mutually respectful to others.
And that makes good citizens, right?
So kind of bringing in that concept.
And also what I love about what I make up about differently wired kids, at least the ones I meet and know, is that if you have ever been part of a marginalized group,
You could potentially have a higher capacity for some natural empathy, right?
you're like, hey, I know what it's like to be left out or treated differently.
And I don't want that to happen to other people.
So I would say definitely, you know, celebrating empathetic acts when you see your children doing that.
Um, you know, celebrating when you see them being self-respectful, being a unique contributor to the greater whole, you know, thanking them for doing their chores, which helps the family, versus
You're so great, you're the best.
