Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 019: Slow Processing Speed—What It Is and How to Support Kids Who Have It · 2 Aug 2016 podcast

They already do that very naturally.

So they you know, we have a lot to learn from kids who are naturally paced in this we we should have a lot to learn from them.

Yeah, I think it's just, you know, like we all have a certain pace of and tempo of how fast we talk, how fast we walk.

I mean, yeah, we can be pushed in one direction or or another and taught to slow down or speed up, but there's only so much room any person can really do.

And so I think being able to accept that and in some ways understanding who you are as a parent.

Are you one of those fast parents who kind of has a slower paced child and is

That causing problems in the family, or are you both sort of slower paced?

And is that causing problems?

Because nobody can get anything done.

So I think kind of looking at your own parenting style, the best kind of parenting style for kids with this slower pace is to be flexible.

And truly, that's always the best anyway, in any parenting style.

And I think sometimes that's why I think this topic resonates with a wider group of parents, because everybody's sort.

I think that's a good thing.

Of feeling frazzled.

All parents are feeling like I can't get my child to get everything done that he's supposed to get done.

So there's a lot that's applicable to lots of parents, you know, regardless of what their child's cognitive profile is like.

But I think being able to be flexible and know sort of instinctively, okay, I need to slow down because I need to match my child right here at this time, or that nope, you know what, at this

time I'm going to need to push them a little bit and we're going to have to figure out how to get that done.

So not every day is going to be the same.

At the same time you want to keep things as consistent as you can.
