In this episode, Samantha and Lauren speak with Scotti Weintraub and discuss the importance of parents paying attention to the struggles their children face in school, collaborating with teachers and professionals, and advocating effectively during school meetings.

Scotti emphasizes leading with curiosity, gathering information, and building solid relationships with educators to create a supportive environment for their children's unique needs.

Additionally, the conversation touches on the emotional aspects of parenting, the significance of not viewing children’s struggles as a reflection of parenting skills, and the value of involving children in discussions about their needs.
