Jamie Sumner and Celebrating Your Family When It’s Not “Normal”

How do you celebrate your family when it’s not “normal”? We are bombarded with messages about who we are supposed to be. Social Media makes us ultra-aware of what other people are doing, how they are living, what they are achieving.

If we are not careful the culture at large, our local culture, or our extended family’s culture can cause us to fit a mold that wasn’t made for us.

In this episode you will hear:

  • How Jamie developed a family culture with a typically developing child and a special needs child. 

  • Why it’s so important to protect your family culture. 

  • Encouragement for special needs parents. 

Key Points:

  • Different is normal.

  • We don’t have to be fearful of our differences. The more we talk about it, the better for everyone. 

  • Each of us has hard things to deal with. There is no need to compare our hard things. It's not a contest.
