The balance of power in a mentoring type relationship with a young person is continually adjusting as a child develops into adulthood.
As you parent, shifting ownership to them is an important part of their development. When they are autistic and/or neurodivergent and have a different timeline for developmental milestones it can create challenges as they start adulting.
Here are some principals to consider when navigating these shifts.

4. Safe Struggle with Nichol Ernst
Autism & Neurodiversity
01/15/21 • 51 min
Join us this week to learn about a wilderness program that uses the outdoor effect and safe struggle to accelerate growth and results. Nichol, the Executive Director of Summit Achievement in Stow, Maine shares how his program's hybrid wilderness model is so effective for taking what students learn outdoors and then applying it in actual life settings. He discusses how they help their students take on challenges, improve their executive functioning skills, handle transitions, learn "tone, tact and timing" and why the pot vaping trend appeals to neurodiverse teens and young adults. We discuss when a wilderness therapy program is appropriate for neurodiverse young people, especially when an outpatient clinical or residential setting isn't working. You'll also gain insights on things you can implement at home.

25. How to Know If You're Parenting Too Much or Too Little with Debbie
Autism & Neurodiversity
06/19/21 • 32 min
It can be really challenging to know if we're parenting too much or too little. Especially when we have a son or daughter that's neurodiverse and has some developmental delays or extra challenges. When your child enters the adulting transition, it can get even more complicated.
How much should we support and how much should we back off? What's helpful and what's not. Too little support and management may hinder their progress because they don't have what they need. Too much support and management can also impede their growth and development.
In this episode, I offer perspectives to help you stay out of the extremes and look at parenting differently. I also offer you what I have found to be key in experiencing more parenting wins, no matter where your son or daughter is in their development or how much managing they need.
