Ep. 7 - 4 Ways to Support Your PDA Child's Nervous System

Season 1 Episode 7 Published 3 years, 8 months ago
Description

This episode explains the four things or "states" that naturally regulate your Pathologically Demand Avoidant (PDA) child's nervous system:

1. Screens
2. Another safe nervous system (likely YOU)
3. Special interest or "Flow" (citation: Harry Thompson, PDA Autistic Advocate and Author of "The PDA Paradox") 
4. Dopamine, novelty or sensory-seeking opportunities

I offer some examples from my own life to demonstrate how to apply this framework in a practical way to your home while parenting a PDA child.
