Have you noticed how the end of the school day is often the exact moment when our children’s emotions seem to burst? It’s all too common. Autistic and SEND children are especially prone to this. They do a great job keeping themselves in check all day, and then lose control during the handoff from teacher to parent.

We’ve noticed that too. And we have some great news—it’s a pattern that we know how to address!

I got to sit down with Lynn McCann for this week’s podcast, where we unpacked the relationship between parents and teachers and received some great ideas for more open communication.
