Sharing a Thought: Always more than genetics and brain wiring (2 of 3)

January 16, 2025 • Jenny Brown

Jenny reflects on parents' questions about why they would need to be involved in addressing a child’s symptoms if it is from the child’s genetics or brain wiring. Even when genetics plays a part, the research points to the important influence of the child's environment. Parents can impact the environment in many growth-enhancing ways – this is the basis of building parent hope.
