CW-boost: parenting, toxic communication 

@joepie91 I see this a lot. Neurodivergent and neurotypical conversations are extremely fascinating to watch and the funny thing is both are correct depending on the viewpoint of the conversation.

It takes A LOT of training and education to get two people operating on different levels to have the same conversation especially when one of them was trained one way their entire life and the other is still learning how to function with their brain.

@joepie91 and in no way is this the fault of the parent like the post you quoted made it seem. It’s definitely on the parent to learn and figure out how to communicate with their child, but it’s also on the child to learn and adapt to conversations with neurotypical people as a general life skill. It’s a huge adjustment and lifestyle change for everybody, and you really do need help from trained professionals on both sides to make it work.

@KuJoe This is not a learnable skill for many ND folks, that is the problem. It's expecting them to do something they literally cannot.
