When your neurodivergent child, teen, or young adult struggles to regulate, follow through, or move forward—what are you supposed to do?
Most parents step in (because they have to). You remind. You coach. You arrange the therapy appointments. You micromanage the hard stuff.
Over time, this becomes your default mode. But what happens when the support that once helped… starts holding them back?
In this episode, Jason explores how helicopter parenting—often born from love and necessity—can quietly become a roadblock to neurodivergent growth. And more importantly, what to do instead.
