Often the focus is on "disabilities" rather than "abilities," and you may be left wondering what you should expect as your child journeys through life.

Conscious parenting means being present with your children and taking the time to understand their point of view. Using this mindful method, you can help your child improve language skills, motor skills, and social skills.

Help your child feel in control with calming routines
Lower stress levels for the entire family, including other siblings
