Leaving The House | Hatty Ashdown

Mar 27 2024 • 1 hr 16 mins

This episode is all about the relentless faff involved in trying to get our neurodivergent kids out of the house.

Mark talks to comedian Hatty Ashdown, who is a parent of two children (one diagnosed autistic with suspected ADHD and one suspected neurotypical). They compare war stories from their daily attempts to wrangle their kids out of the house, navigating distractions, dysregulation, refusal and all round chaos along the way.
