Empathy, Identity, and Tools for Neurodivergent Families
Sebastian Moreno’s practical, authentic guide, written from the perspective of a neurodivergent individual raised in a family of neurodivergent siblings, offers a rare and intimate look into the emotional, cognitive, and sensory experiences of children with atypical development.
Drawing from his family's experiences - his sister’s sensory overload and his stimming habits – Moreno warmly invites parents into an empathetic space as he handles topics such as burnout, medication, gender bias in diagnosis, and the nuances of therapy with research-informed sensitivity.
The reflective exercises throughout prompt genuine growth and understanding.
While its comprehensive scope may feel dense at times, Moreno’s honest, empathetic tone makes What Neurodivergent Children Need From You an invaluable resource for caregivers.
