"He's just gifted, and gifted kids are quirky." "Yeah, but are they always this angry?"

About This Episode: It's Mama Monday! This week, I'm talking with Michelle Bubier for Part 1 of a 2-part chat. Not only is Michelle hilarious, but her down-to-earth, accepting attitude towards her neurodivergent kid is inspiring. Here are just some of the topics we discussed:

-Early signs of autism and giftedness starting at age 3
-Does a traumatic birth affect a child?
-Violence between siblings and a sense of "justice"
-The importance of showing our kids that we're listening
-Accepting tough behaviors without questioning them - and how that helps you as a the mom

Please shower Michelle with love and support by SHARING this episode with a mom who needs to hear her story!
