In the golden age of television, fathers were portrayed as wise and dependable — ‘Father Knows Best’ defined the era. Today, many TV dads are reduced to comic relief, reflecting a societal shift that too often sidelines dads in parenting.
But here’s the truth: fathers play a vital role, especially when it comes to nurturing neurodivergent children academically, socially, and emotionally.
This episode explores the profound impact of fathers on their neurodivergent children. We'll meet a California dad whose son's autism diagnosis led him on a journey of self-discovery, transforming him into a devoted advocate. We'll also hear from national experts on the crucial role fathers play in supporting these children. And we'll introduce a remarkable Difference Maker: a Guinness World Record-holding triathlete who's redefining expectations for neurodivergent athletes.
