Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 261: How to Motivate Kids & Build Their Stress Tolerance, with William Stixrud and Ned Johnson · 27 Jul 2021 podcast

Everything is set.

Which is just colossally wrong.

And and it it was part of our motivation for l let let's try to help to really l let's talk with kids, let's teach 'em what we understand about being happy is let's give them a friggin' chance.

Well, I I'll just mention that being close to a parent

is about as close to a silver bullet for protecting kids emotionally.

And so we we I just hope that the tools that we we we talk about in the book c can help p parents get a little closer to their kids and and vice versa.

Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 158: The Self-Driven Child with William Stixrud and Ned Johnson · 20 May 2019 podcast

Thanks for having me.

Well, I I'm Bill Sticksrooted and I'm I'm a clinical neuropsychologist.

And I make a living by testing kids if they're having learning problems or attention problems or emotional problems or some concern about autism, they're struggling socially.

And I try to figure out what's going right, what's going wrong, and how to help.

I think some so somebody introduced Ned and I several years ago and thought that we we thought a lot alike.

And I got to know Ned and and I I love the fact that Ned is so brilliant at getting kids to perform better on tests because he used the principles that are the in our book.

You know, he has kids rest more.

He he has works on lowering their stress level, putting the test in perspective so it doesn't feel like that big a deal.

And the stuff that we talk about in the self-driven child is something that that was intuitive to him.

intuitive to me.

So we started lecturing together and eventually decided to write a book about the most useful stuff that we knew.

So this is built, you know, what I I noticed ear very early in my career and I I've been a psychologist for thirty five years, that I do therapy and I've worked with young adults and it's very common for them to say, um, you know, I I'm thirty five, but I feel I spent the first thirty five years of my life trying to live up to other people's expectations.

Now I'm trying to figure out what's important to me.

Now I think I I started thinking that that that doesn't make sense.
