How to Spot an SPD Parent

You know your a parent of an SPD kid if:

You cut your child's hair while they are sleeping.

You never take tag's off of new clothes or new shoes.

You know words like: vestibular, hyper or hyposensitivity, proprioceptive dysfunction,
neurological process...

You grocery list is ruled by foods with or without textures.

You find playing with moon sand, play-dough, and shaving cream is as relaxing as a spa treatment.


Your child has 5 different coats made from 5 different materials.

You know potty training is like breaking a wild stallion (O so difficult, but not impossible).

You carry an arsenal of random toys in your purse, car, or pocket.

Your home looks like the inside of an Occupational Therapist room.

You can spot Casein, Gluten, Food coloring, and Preservatives from a mile away.

Last but not least,

You diagnose other children with SBD (spoiled brat disorder), MMS (master manipulator syndrome), or any other acronym that suits the case.
