How I Help my Neurodivergent Teen Girl

Here are ten things I do to help my Autistic and ADHD 16 year old daughter. I'll explain each and why I do it as it applies to her neurodivergence. My goal is that this will be helpful and encouraging to know you aren't alone in these struggles. Parenting neurodivergent kids is a lot harder, and if you are neurodivergent yourself, then that's another level. You should be proud of the effort you pour into your kids lives. Even on days that feel miserable, you are doing what no one else can. Your kid loves you, and you are building a life and relationship for them that is stable amid all the chaos out there. 🫶 Resources: 🌠 Autistic and AuDHD Traits Checklist for Teen Girls download: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/s... ➡️ 12 Ways to help your Neurodivergent teen-    • 12 Ways to Help Your Neurodivergent Teen   🌞 Help your AuDHD Teen setup a daily routine -    • Help your Autistic and ADHD Teen Setup a D...   🎙 Supporting Autistic Girls - A podcast by the Hidden 20% don't miss part 2. https://open.spotify.com/episode/56HL... 📖 Chapters: 0:00 Intro 1:14 My family background 1:43 Physical Task 1 - Helping her with bigger life tasks 3:44 Physical Task 2 - Learning about neurodivergence 4:51 Physical Task 3 - Fixing or buying food she likes 5:48 Physical Task 4 - Homeschooling 7:16 Physical Task 5 - Body doubling 8:41 Physical Task 6 - Doing crafts together 9:34 Mental Shift 1 - Hormones effect on neurodivergent teen girls 10:24 Mental Shift 2 - Knowing when to push and when not to 12:02 Mental Shift 3 - Providing a safe and comfortable home 13:32 Mental Shift 4 - Expect ups and downs 14:44 Key Takeaway 15:17 How my AuDHD teen girl helped me 📺 My Channel:  AuDHD Self Help | Health Tips | Parenting Tips for ND Kids/Teens | I develop content geared toward helping other neurodivergent moms and parents navigate the challenges we face daily.  👋 Me: I'm Sarah - a late diagnosed ADHD and Autistic mom of three girls from toddler to 19.
