Does your child have a melt down at every request?
Does every demand followed by explosive behaviours?
Your child could have PDA also known as Pathalogical Demand Avoidance. It is a disability found mainly in individuals that fit the Autism and ADHD profile, and because it is not an official diagnosis it is difficult to recognise and and get help. In this episode I have a Jessica Townsend a dedicated advocate for parents, teachers, and educators navigating the challenges of supporting children with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).
She is going to give us the low down of:
1. How to recognise it 2. How to support your child at home & School
3. Passed down generational parenting that don't work for us Autism parents anymore.
