Publisher's Summary
Short, easily digestible guide for parents on how to reduce family conflict by dropping unnecessary demands from daily life to help neurodivergent families to thrive.
"Low-demand parenting requires radical acceptance. It says to the kid right in front of you, I see you, just as you are. - You are ok here. I love you right here."
Parent to neurodivergent children and autistic adult Amanda Diekman outlines a parenting approach that finally lowers the bar for the whole family, enabling the equilibrium of the home to be restored.
Low-demand parenting allows you to drop the demands and expectations that are making family life impossible and embrace the joyful freedom of living life with low demands. It can be a particularly effective approach for children with high anxiety levels including neurodivergent children. Amanda talks from experience and teaches you how to identify what the big, tiny and invisible demands are for your own child and gives you the step-by-step instructions on how to drop them.
Full of practical resources and scripts that are easy to implement in busy everyday life, this book is your flashlight and your map to parenting your uniquely wired child. It will not tell you where to go, but it will help you find your way so you and your family thrive.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Nice intro to the subject
This was a great intro to low-demand parenting with advice on how to implement it. Having these things woven through the authors personal experience made it very relatable and easy to see why it is helpful with neurodivergent kids. Thoroughly enjoyed.

must read for parents
Everyone with kids or even without should read this. Great perspective for life in general. If we could all live and work with this style we probably wouldn't be in this mental health crisis

A guide to Radical Acceptance
So many light bulb moments for myself and my family. It's Challenging to fully accept some areas the author had embraced but it's a really great explanation of what works for a family and how you can apply it so it could work for you too.
