Parenting Challenges

A 2Β° Drop In Temperature Can Shut Down A Neurodivergent Child's Brain.

For some children with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), their brains are working so hard to process sensory information that even a small change in temperature can feel overwhelming.

What looks like:

❌ Not paying attention

❌ Being moody

❌ Refusing to work

May actually be: 🧠 Sensory overload

‍

πŸ’‘ Try this:

βœ… Keep a jacket nearby

βœ… Watch for temperature-related behaviour changes

βœ… Ask "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" before assuming they're being difficultSometimes behaviour is communication.

❀️ Understanding comes before solutions.
