Telling the Siblings About the Diagnosis
Brothers and sisters have usually noticed already, so tell them briefly, like any other family news.
A one-minute read, three things to try, for ages 5 to 11.
Where to start
- Tell them briefly, as you would any other family news.
The rest of the tip, with more to try and why it works, is in the library.
It goes with
- Neurodiversity, and the Conversation with the School. For parents whose child has been working harder and longer than other children to do things that come more easily to them.
- Siblings and the Fights That Aren’t Fair. For parents whose children keep finding new ways to fall out with each other.
The first chapter you open here is free to read in full.
