What can we learn from neurodivergent children and adolescents?

In this powerful and heart-opening talk, international bestselling author, family therapist and telepath Ditte Young invites you into a new perspective on neurodivergent children and young people. What if the children we call “challenged” are actually the ones who show us a significantly expanded understanding of what it means to be human

Ditte Young is herself the mother of a boy with autism and speaks this evening both as a professional and as a mother. She unfolds a perspective that is not based on mistakes and shortcomings, but on resources, potential and deep human insight.

Based on her work with families in both Denmark and internationally, Ditte Young shows how neurodivergent children:

-Reveal what is no longer working in our society
-Push parents into deep personal development processes
-Contain competencies that will be crucial in the future labor market

In the lecture, she shares concrete experiences, insights and examples from her work and from her own life as a mother – and provides a rare insight into how we can begin to understand these children in a whole new way.
