40: In the Shadows of Doubt: Standing Strong Against Institutional Gaslighting
Prepare to be moved and motivated as we delve into a deeply personal and critical issue in this week's episode. We are two resilient gay mothers sharing our daunting experiences with gaslighting by the Ministry of Children and Families—a reality we've faced while advocating for the mental health support of our neurodivergent children.
We lay bare the emotional toll of questioning their perceptions and judgments in the face of institutional denial and manipulation. From dismissive tactics to the outright refusal to acknowledge our children's needs, we discuss the systemic obstacles that have tested our resolve.
This episode isn't just a narrative of struggle; it's a testament to the unshakeable strength required of two mothers who refuse to be silenced, invalidated or punished. It's an essential listen for anyone facing the gaslighting of authoritative bodies, and a call to arms for systemic reform to recognize and respect neurodivergence.
