      This book is for parents raising 'in-between' children in a neurotypical world, capturing the highs, lows, and neurospicy moments of their journey. Have you ever heard comments like 'he doesn't look autistic' or felt isolated in your parenting experience? If so, it's time to set aside traditional parenting guides and join Lisa Lloyd on a candid exploration of raising neurodivergent children who don't fit mainstream expectations but aren't considered 'severe.' Lisa shares her experiences, from the confusion of early years and the realization of neurodivergence to navigating an unaccommodating school system and the daily challenges of parenting. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you took your autistic child on a haunted ghost ride? Or how you'd react if your child grabbed a stranger's backfat in a changing room? This honest guide addresses the unpredictable and often humorous moments of parenting SEN-Betweeners. If you find yourself in similar circumstances, this book will reassure you that you are not alone. 'Lisa writes with an honesty that is both refreshing and important.' - Kellie Bright, actor and SEN Parent.
