63. What Do You Do When One Parent Wants Help for Child's Emotional Dysregulation or ADHD and the Other Hesitates
Description
Feeling like you’re doing all the research and your partner is on a totally different timeline? Parenting gets lonely fast when you’re raising a child with big emotions - and you’re not on the same page.
In today’s episode, I’m answering a listener question about what to do when one parent wants help, tools, and support… and the other feels hesitant, resistant, or shut down.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why parents often approach “getting help” in completely different ways
- What resistance is really protecting (and how to respond with compassion)
- How to build unity without forcing agreement
- A simple next step to move forward together this week
Whether you are managing sensory processing issues, executive functioning issues, a diagnosis such as ADHD or DMDD, or simply trying to manage your mom-sense that something's off...this episode is for you!
