Short, Sweet or Sassy Comeback Responses for Every Judgy Relative

11/20/2023 • 27 min

In this episode, I share my top comebacks for dealing with judgmental comments about parenting a neurodivergent child. As parents, we've all experienced unwanted advice or passive aggressive remarks from friends and family about our parenting style or our child's behavior. But it can be hard to know how to respond without causing conflict. I'll provide a variety of polite, informative, and sassy responses you can have in your back pocket for common comments like "My parents would never let me get away with that" or "Why don't you just try XYZ intervention?" You'll learn different ways to shut down shaming, set boundaries, and educate others without losing your cool. Whether you need neutral ways to handle helicopter relatives or spicy one-liners to use on particularly judgmental family members, this episode has the perfect comebacks to empower you to engage effectively while still keeping the peace. I'll also share tips for preventing problems and handling difficult conversations with tact. By the end, you'll feel prepared for any parenting critique this holiday season.
