Welcome back to PPMD's podcast, Living Duchenne! This season we're discussing Raising an Independent Child. The path to purpose and independence begins at an early age for every individual. For those on the Duchenne journey this means tapping into creativity, community, and resources. This episode finds guests Christopher Bennett and Amy Ridolphi talking with our host, Rachel Poysky, about building a strong foundation for empowerment during those grade school and pre-adolescent years. Both guests share practical methods such as introducing chore responsibilities and socializing habits along with mental and emotional frameworks that benefit the entire family. Join us for a fantastic conversation!
