Join Sue for an upcoming Live Virtual Workshop where you will learn from Sue practical tips & strategies to make a difference.

In this episode, we will discuss:

✅ Social meltdowns stem from exclusion, misunderstanding, and social anxiety. ✅ Differentiating meltdowns from tantrums guides appropriate responses. ✅ Mind blindness impairs perspective-taking and interpreting social cues. ✅ Sensory overload heightens emotional overwhelm in social settings. ✅ Teaching social knowledge through scripts builds peer interaction skills. ✅ Proactive accommodations prevent meltdowns in classrooms and playgrounds. ✅ Device reliance undermines self-regulation and emotional resilience.
