Story5 out of 5 stars 17
An unapologetic, deeply moving manual for parents of neurodivergent children from Heidi Mavir, a late-identified, neurodivergent adult and parent to an autistic/ADHD teenager. This updated edition includes information on Pathological Demand Avoidance, Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria, an interview with Heidi's son Theo and more. Follow Heidi's irreverent and brutally honest story of her fight to be seen, heard and supported, while swimming against a tide of parent blame, ableist stereotypes and the weight of other people’s opinions.

This is my first ever review, and I just had to say how much I loved and appreciated Heidi’s book. Her honesty, vulnerability, humor, and comfort (plus her accent and cursing) are just fantastic. We only recently learned about PDA for our kid and this book helped me feel like we’re not alone. Highly recommend!
