Summary | "Eliza Fricker gets it. When you're raising a PDA child, with societal judgements and internal pressures, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, resentful and alone. Eliza's comedic illustrations explain the challenging situations and feelings you may face in a way that words simply cannot, bringing some much-needed levity back into PDA parenting. Humorous anecdotes with a compassionate tone remind parents that they are not alone, and that they're dong a great job. If children are safe and happy, who cares about some smelly socks? A light-hearted and digestible guide to being a PDA parent covering everything from tolerance levels, relationships and meltdowns to collaboration, flexibility and self-care, you can dip in and out as your schedule allows to help get to grips with this complex condition."--Back cover. |
