Parenting & You With Dr. Shefali

On today’s episode of Parenting & You, Dr. Shefali sits down with a mother whose daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and autism, only to discover later in life that she, too, had the same diagnoses.
She shares how she learned to set healthy boundaries, navigate impulsive behaviors, and support her daughter while managing her own challenges. By sharing her personal story, she hopes to help other families, break down the stigma surrounding neurodiversity, and remind parents that neither they nor their children are defined or limited by a diagnosis.
This is an inspiring conversation about understanding, acceptance, and helping every child reach their full potential.

On today’s episode of Parenting & You, Dr. Shefali talks with a mother who says her 19 year old son seems stuck, falling behind, and not ready to launch into adulthood. She worries he isn’t becoming more independent and believes excessive screen time, phone use, and video games may be contributing to the problem.
She also wonders if her own overprotective parenting has unintentionally held him back. Dr. Shefali unpacks these challenges and offers practical insights to help this mother and other parents facing similar struggles raise confident, independent young adults.
