Description

When your children don’t fit the mould, it can cause a lot of friction unless the adults in their lives can be flexible. This podcast is all about moulding ourselves to what our kids need to forge an easier, calmer path in parenting. Moulding your parenting and expectations. Moulding your child’s environment and skills. I’ve got the evidence based strategies, but parents are the change makers – so let’s do this together. Come on in!
