This is part two of an interview Erin and I did with our friend
Main. If you have not listened to the first part. You can find the
transcript and show notes . The best way to support the podcast is
by leaving a review on. Episode outline: Physical therapy: the
difference between how disabled adults see therapy vs how parents
of disabled kids see therapy. How to make choices when the medical
community pushes for certain interventions. Finding the balance on
how much to "push" our kids and letting them be gloriously
themselves. What it is like for disabled adults to listen to
parents of disabled children talk about caregiving. Things that
contribute to parents of disabled kids and disabled adults to be at
odds. "It's hard for me to feel a lot of sympathy or empathy when
people talk about how hard it is to be a caregiver. Because as a
caree I don't get a lot of sympathy. And there's no caree support
group, where we can go and complain about our caregivers." Marin
