Launching Your Adult Child: Fostering Independence without Severing Connection | Dr. Jack Stoltzfus

Education is a major challenge for differently wired children, as it often doesn't accommodate their unique learning needs, and navigating public, private, and charter school options can be tricky.
ENCORE EPISODE! Parenting a Differently Wired Kid | Debbie Reber
Q: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and why you decided to write the book Differently Wired and how you even came up with that term differently wired?
