Supporting Siblings of Neurodivergent Children
Supporting every child in the family.

Unique Challenges: Siblings may receive less attention, feel pressure to be 'perfect', experience embarrassment, or feel responsible for their sibling.

Emotional Impact: Mixed feelings of love, resentment, guilt, protectiveness, and worry are common and normal.
-
Need for Support: Siblings benefit from their own space to express feelings, receive individual attention, and connect with peers in similar situations.

Building Understanding: Age-appropriate education about their sibling's condition reduces confusion and builds empathy.
