Single Parent Diaries: I love my Neurodiverse Children, Single-parenting Special Kiddos (Tiphany's Talks)
This week's Titillating Talks with Tiphany: I love my neurodiverse children. I talk about the challenges and joys of single-parenting my 2 neurodiverse children.
What is Neurodiversity? Neurodiversity refers to variation in the human brain regarding social connections, learning, attention, mood, and other mental functions in a way that says, "Ok- your brain works differently and that's ok." Neurodiversity may look like autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, dyslexia, severe anxiety, Tourette's Syndrome, and more. The neurodiversity movement works to bring awareness to the idea that neurodiversity does not require a cure. No longer are these brains looked at as having a "condition, disease, disorder, or illness".
So, yes, both my kiddos are neurodiverse. Their brains work differently, which means I need to parent in a different, more understanding, more creative way. And I GET IT WRONG so often!! But that's ok. Being a single mom can be challenging, being a single mom of neurodiverse children takes challenging to a whole new level. At the same time, the amount of work I have to put in to understand my children has created a bond and closeness that I am forever grateful for. My boys help me to see the world in a different way and I cherish that!
I want to hear your stories about parenting your neurodiverse children!
