We are honored to welcome the inspiring Kelley Coleman to our podcast. Kelley shared her deeply personal journey as a parent of a child with multiple disabilities and how she ended up writing her book, "Everything No One Tells You About Parenting." Her authenticity and wisdom shine through in this interview. We discuss the lack of information parents are provided on diagnosis and how there's not one specific place a parent can go to find the info and support they need. We talked about the crucial aspects of caregiving in navigating the healthcare system, accessing financial support, and our need for self-care that might be unconventional.Ep. 162; March 19, 2024Key Moments:[7:03] Care plan for my dependent child brings victories[15:52] State disability definitions and benefits[26:12] Getting a second opinion is freeing[39:57] Balancing rewards and guilt of parenting challenges[44:05] Going home Googling things and cryingResources:https://www.kelleycoleman.com/https://www.kelleycoleman.com/bookshttps://www.instagram.com/hellokelleycoleman/https://www.facebook.com/kelley.coleman.56https://emilypfreeman.com/next-right-thing-book/ If you enjoyed the show:Have you purchased our new book, The Other Side of Special?

Fidel faced tough times when one of her twins died and the other got very sick. She found comfort in her faith in God, even though she felt sad and overwhelmed. Thinking about her daughter's future, she decided to learn more about kids by studying for a PhD. She focused on helping children with special needs and finished her studies surprisingly fast, driven by her love for her daughter and her wish to change some ideas in the church. Fidel's story teaches us about staying strong, having faith, and how education can make a big difference, even when life is hard. #citamchurchonline #ChurchEveryday Get in touch with us: http://www.citam.org/ churchonline@citam.org (+254) 784 277 277 (+254) 728 221 221
Vulnerable narratives of fatherhood are few and far between; rarer still is an ethnography that delves into the practical and emotional realities of intensive caregiving. Grounded in the intimate everyday lives of men caring for children with major physical and intellectual disabilities, Worlds of Care: The Emotional Lives of Fathers Caring for Children with Disabilities (U California Press, 2021) undertakes an exploration of how men shape their identities in the context of caregiving. Anthropologist Aaron J. Jackson fuses ethnographic research and creative nonfiction to offer an evocative account of what is required for men to create habitable worlds and find some kind of “normal” when their circumstances are anything but. Combining stories from his fieldwork in North America with reflections on his own experience caring for his severely disabled son, Jackson argues that care has the potential to transform our understanding of who we are and how we relate to others. Aaron J. Jackson is a Lecturer in Anthropology at Victoria University. His research focuses on fatherhood, care, and disability.

Today we're featuring more accessible research! We're talking about a topic I am really passionate about; Modified Leisure with play, social skills, and joint attention all mixed in. Dr. Erin Barton explains the research involved in her study, Teaching Board Game Play to Young Children With Disabilities. Her work focused on expanding play research from pretend play to play with peers, with an emphasis on the least amount of adult intervention. Dr. Barton makes an important note that every child deserves a 100% chance that they will have at least 1 chance for a positive interaction with their peers. Board game play is a naturally occurring chance for small group play with functionality that applies beyond the therapy room.The children involved in the study had limited speech, developmental delays and required no peer aversions, specific motor skills related to game play, and the ability to follow one-step directions. They generalized board game play with visual cues and step by step guides among an array of games that were picked daily by rotating student choice. In the study, they found that after between 5 and 10 sessions, children were able to generalize and maintain the skill. Dr. Barton also shares some tips that everyday clinicians can use today in the therapy room. Cooperation focus: change games so they meet the needs of the child, they don't have to be the original win/lose function.Adaptations: create visual cues and prompts that can become a part of the game and do not need to be faded.Student interests: use games and interests the students enjoy to reinforce the process.Did you like this episode?

The start of the school year can be an expensive time, not just for uniforms and stationery, but for devices too. And if you are the parent of a child with disabilities the costs are amplified. Workbridge Chief Executive and Assistive Technology consultant Jonathan Mosen says there's a complexity of choice for aids to help pupils with visual and hearing impairment - and with that can come high price tags.

Today I wanted to talk about children with disabilities, or I would rather call them children with special abilities, but that's not how society views them, is it?This video is inspired by my recent work with a mother who struggled with one such special child blaming herself for everything that has happened, and what came through that session that I did with her was very profound for her, and I've been called to share it with the broader community.Hopefully, it'll help some of you. If somebody has a child with special needs, perhaps you would choose to share this video with them.

In this podcast, we discuss the Fit Families program, an initiative focused on empowering parents of children with disabilities. Drs. Luis Columna and Laura Prieto (@LaAlma_Prieto) from the University of Wisconsin Madison share insights. Fit Families originated as a program for visually impaired children but expanded to include those with autism. Fit Families provides parents of children with disabilities expert-driven workshops that cover sensory-motor activities, communication, and aquatics. The program has positively impacted parents' awareness, advocacy skills, and children's self-confidence and motor skills. The panelists highlight community engagement, effective communication, and ongoing research as crucial to providing a lasting impact of these families and their physical activity (and overall quality of life).

In this episode, Tasha Fishman passionately explores the challenges and concerns surrounding the current state of education and societal influences, particularly regarding children with disabilities. Tasha delves into the controversial impact of recent legislation, like Bill C-4 in Canada, which she argues undermines parental rights and contributes to a broader societal shift. She expresses urgency in removing children from what she perceives as a harmful educational system, emphasizing the potential risks associated with ideological indoctrination and the need for parents to reclaim their roles as primary guardians. Tasha reflects on her own experiences working within the system, advocating for alternative educational approaches, and encouraging parents to question prevailing narratives, fostering critical thinking in their children. Throughout, she underscores the importance of recognizing and resisting what she sees as an insidious societal transformation orchestrated by powerful entities.

We have the executive director for the non-profit Risen Motherhood and talented Author Laura Wifler, on today's show. This interview is a sweet and transparent conversation about children with disabilities. Laura shares stories from her own life about how God has used motherhood, in particular mothering a child with disabilities, to transform her, as well as her family and her ministry. She has a beautiful purpose to help create conversations, normalize disabilities, and train others to interact with people of all ages with disabilities. We hear how Laura educates her kids through great family phrases and helpful heart-to-heart conversations. Laura gives us some wise advice in handling the complexities of being in a family with disabilities, and she speaks to the grace God gives us each day. We also explore the healthy practice of holding grief, sorrow, hope, and joy. We hope today's show is an encouragement to families that have members with disabilities and to help serve as an education to those who don't. Enjoy!
