Ep. 117 - Is My Child PDA or Non-PDA Demand Avoidant?
Not all demand avoidant children and teens are PDA. In this episode I talk through how to know if your child fits the profile for PDA, which is important, because it suggests a different root cause for their avoidance than for non-PDA demand avoidant kids. And of course, you want to know what the root cause is so you know how best to support your child or teen.I hope this is helpful to all.xo,CaseyMentioned in this episode:Paradigm Shift Program
