EP 188: Grief as the Sibling of a Child with Special Needs
Grief is hard to acknowledge and talk about. The truth is, there is grief involved with being the sibling of a child with a special need. In today’s episode, we’re exploring how to support the siblings of kids with a nervous system disability with behavior-based symptoms with all their feelings, especially grief.
In this episode, you’ll learn
- How to validate all your children’s feelings, even when they are really uncomfortable
- How to acknowledge the truth that in most circumstances, your other children really are less seen in your family
- The four questions to ask yourself when thinking about how to help your kids with their grief
