Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 429: Dr. Liz Angoff on Best Practices for Talking with Kids About Diagnoses · 18 Feb 2025 podcast

As we get more information as parents, because if you've been through the diagnostic process with your child,

You know it's a journey in trying to understand.

And so, but we can start talking to kids and celebrating their differences very, very young.

And normalizing neurodiversity is just part of what makes our world grow and evolve.

I think it starts with our own understanding of what assessment is.

And so assessment is really an opportunity to understand how your child's brain works and how it works best, what the environment is, where it's really gonna thrive, and where the mismatches between the environment and how your child's brain works.

And that's where these points of friction.

or the challenges come up because of this mismatch.

So just understanding that that's

what's happening with assessment.

And too often we go in thinking we're gonna find out what's wrong or we're gonna find out what the diagnosis is.

A diagnosis is a shortcut to understanding what this mismatch is between the way your child brain works and the way the environment expects it to work.

So just knowing that for ourselves.

And then for our child, I really find it important to start

With their words, their lived experience, and something that they know is a challenge.

So it could be as simple as, you know how you've been telling me you don't like your math homework lately?

Well, I found somebody who might be able to help us figure that out.

And while our questions might be much bigger than that, they may be so many questions.

But if our child has something that they've been saying is hard for them, that they it's been tricky for them, or that we find we're nagging them a lot about, you know, I've been nagging you a lot and we're having trouble getting out of the house in the morning.

I need to know more about that.
