Summary

It is already tough trying to help our kids with anxiety or OCD, but it is even harder stomaching unhelpful comments and advice.

Sometimes people are trying to be helpful and don’t mean to be upsetting. Some people are uneducated. And some people are judgemental and critical.

Some people deserve education. Some people deserve boundaries. And some people should just be ignored.

In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore the different reasons why people give us unhelpful comments and advice and I break down my 4 different response types.
