What About My Other Kids?

What about my other kids? Navigating the dynamics of sibling relationships in families of children with pediatric epilepsy: When you have a child that requires constant supervision and care, how, as a parent, do you balance this with the needs of your other children? How do you support your “neurotypical” children when they have experienced the trauma of meltdowns, rage episodes, and frequent hospitalizations of their brother or sister? How do you help them understand their sibling’s illness without feeling as though you are creating a double standard or excuses for unacceptable behavior? And how do you balance all your children’s needs when one of them requires everything you have to give? About our speaker: Eileen Devine, LCSW Eileen has over a dozen years of clinical experience and is the adoptive mother of a child with fetal alcohol syndrome. She believes that kids do well if they can and that when we understand how a child’s brain works, we understand the meaning behind challenging behaviors. Eileen’s goal is to not only support parents in feeling more competent and confident in connecting with their child by parenting from a brain-based perspective but also to recognize their experience as the parent of a child with challenging behavioral symptoms and their impact on their sense of self and well-being. When these two sides of the neurobehavioral coin can be equally addressed, there is less frustration and increased hope in this unique parenting journey. Eileen is a licensed Clinical Social Worker and is a certified facilitator in the teaching and application of the neurobehavioral model, as developed by FASCETS founder Diane Malbin. She has also completed Tier 1 training in Think:Kids Collaborative Problem Solving. Eileen is an instructor for the Post-Master’s Certificate in Adoption and Foster Therapy through Portland State University’s Child Welfare Partnership, training other therapists on the neurobehavioral model. Founder of the Brain First Parenting Program, The Resilience Room, and Brain First Parenting Podcast. #siblings #powerhour #relationships *** Our mission is to enhance the lives of children who need neurosurgery to treat their seizures.
