“A deeply moving and essential read for MKs, TCKs, and the parents and caregivers who support them. This book is a lifeline for those seeking understanding and connection in their journey. An absolute must-read!”
Kath Williams
National TCK Coordinator, TCK Interlink
In this third segment of the series on TCKs and Neurodiversity, we meet eleven adult TCKs and get the chance to learn directly from them about how their lives have been shaped by autism, OCD, ADHD, and other brain differences. They honestly and compellingly answer questions about the assets and blessings of their diagnoses, about what they’ve learned and how they’re finding ways to live well in a world that often isn’t built for them. They also outline what they wish they’d known sooner, and offer nuggets of hard-won wisdom to other TCKs who are neurodivergent.
