Scenario

When couples disagree about special needs advocacy strategies

My husband and I keep having the same fight about our son's autism accommodations — I think we need to push harder with the school district and he thinks I'm being too aggressive, and meanwhile our kid is coming home in meltdown mode three days a week. We're supposed to be a team but we can't even agree on what advocacy looks like.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two parents are discovering that their different approaches to protecting their child are putting them at odds when they most need to be united.
