Have you lived through your child’s meltdowns in public places? Experienced people staring at you? Feeling judged? Many parents know those situations, feeling guilty and ashamed, often helpless. Yvonne Newbold has lived through this for years, trying to help one of her children move from anxiety-led behaviour towards happier times. Drawing on her personal experience, she outlines some of the most effective and actionable of these strategies — starting with a dash of curiosity, kindness and creative thinking.
The speaker: Yvonne Newbold is a learning disability champion and helps parents and professionals develop the knowledge, skills, strategies and confidence to reduce anxiety-led difficult and dangerous behaviour in children with a disability or an additional need.
