The Orchid Child

Your child notices everything, feels everything deeply, and doesn't bounce back from a hard day the way other kids seem to. That's not a parenting failure — it's a well-documented trait, and about 1 in 5 children have it. The Orchid Child is a 22-page guide that explains the research behind sensitivity and anxiety in kids, the surprising reason "protecting them from everything" can backfire, and exactly what to say in the moments that catch you off guard — meltdowns, new situations, school mornings, and more. Includes ready-to-use scripts, a school-advocacy framework, a gradual-confidence-building plan, and a 90-day action plan. Instant PDF download.
