## Resource

How can you get kids with PDA to do hard things like go to the dentist or get on an airplane? The common sentiment, “Not Won’t. Can’t” can be debilitating for our kids when it becomes the reflexive response. In this episode, I give you alternate scripts and options to build your child’s confidence in the toughest situations.
