Don't Make This Mistake When Assessing Development & Expectations with Debbie

About this episode

There are nuances with assessing someone’s capabilities that many people miss.

In this episode, I share one of the common ways we assess that’s causing lots of frustration and disappointment. It sets us up for unfair and dishonest expectations.

It can also hinder development. Listen in for what it is and what you’ll want to do instead.

What You'll Learn from this Episode:

  • The assessment measure that mistakenly sets you up for inaccurate expectations.
  • Why it’s not a good indicator of development.
  • What is a better indicator of development.
  • How you may be using things against your neurodivergent child, teen, young adult, or yourself.
  • What good assessment always takes into account.
