Scenario

When 2e parent support groups develop competitive dynamics

Four parents in our twice-exceptional support group have become close friends but we're starting to compete over whose child is more gifted or whose struggles are more severe, and it's poisoning what used to be our safe space. Nobody wants to acknowledge it's happening but we all feel it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A supportive community is being undermined by unconscious competition around children's abilities and challenges.
