About this listen

Have you read every parenting book and never found something useful? Ever feel like all the advice just doesn’t apply? Is there neurodiversity in the house?!


Well, this is the podcast for you - this is Episode 1 of Parenting Off-Script.


I’m Kate Gresswell-Pettitt, and in this series I’ll be discussing my experience of life as a mother. I’ll be talking about work, sense of self, mental and physical health and everything else that life throws at you…all while parenting a child with Special Educational Needs.


In this first episode I speak to my podcast producer Heywood Similon who - like me - is a neurodiverse parent.


We talk about growing up in the 90s, when conditions like ADHD and autism were even less recognised than they are now, and he explains the ethos he and his partner have when parenting their home schooled daughter.
