The same rules don't work for all your kids. You're not doing it wrong.

About the show
This one exists because I couldn't find it.
Every resource I picked up assumed all my kids were neurodivergent or none of them were. Nothing addressed the house in between, where you're running two entirely different parenting approaches simultaneously and being told you're inconsistent by people who've never had to do it.
Mixed Needs Mama is honest conversation about that specific job. What's actually worked, what backfired, how to handle the sibling absorbing less attention, what to do about church, and how to stop measuring yourself against a standard built for a different family.
No cure talk. No shame. No implication that your kid is a problem to be solved.
Who listens
- Parents raising neurotypical and neurodivergent kids together
- Moms who feel like they're failing all their kids in different ways
- Families navigating diagnosis, school, and church at the same time
- Grandparents and caregivers trying to understand
- Therapists and teachers who work with these families
Start with these.
