"Our beautiful disabled children aren’t the problem here. And neither are their parents." #SEND #Gaslighting

💬 Really interesting discussion exploring best practice for working with parents with learning disabilities & difficulties. The importance of relationship-based, trauma informed practice is emphasised. Take the time to build positive, open relationships. #BASWENG23

Beth outlines some worries & concerns that parents with learning disabilities & difficulties might feel about engaging with social work services. We must be considerate, understanding & supportive. The importance of good, clear communication is also highlighted. #BASWENG23

We also hear from Beth Tarleton, Senior Lecturer at  Norah Fry Centre for Disability Studies who explains what social workers need to know when working with parents with learning disabilities & learning difficulties. #BASWENG23
