TOPIC: VIDEO CONFERENCE: No More Power Struggles

WHEN: Tuesday, January 12th, 9 am PST

Register: here.

I don’t have an easy answer for this one actually. All of the platitudes for avoiding power struggles or disengaging when they start, just don’t seem to work with our “Aspies.” They can be so determined that we are wrong that they won’t let up. It’s as if there’s a volcano inside that is overflowing and can’t be stopped even when we capitulate.

Power Struggles are different than meltdowns. They aren’t due to sensory overload or some other emotional disequilibrium. Rather it is the black and white thinking that seems to stump them.

Without empathy, they seize on a small point of disagreement and take it to the extreme. I plan to use this time to talk more about why our ASD loved ones engage in power struggles, but even more important is how to protect ourselves from these difficult moments.

Pleased make sure you have a quiet, uninterrupted space to call in. You will be able to see the Zoom link for this conference on the event page on MeetUp after you pay the event fee. The fee is $18.95. After you register to attend, please click the Zoom link and join at the time of the video conference.

The event is finished.
