This book is a love letter to exhausted, overwhelmed parents everywhere.
At our low point, I was suffering from PTSD from my parenting journey. I had multiple kids in crisis in the midst of a global pandemic. We were deep in the darkness.
I wrote this book to people in that dark place. There is a path forward to healing, wholeness, joy, and connection. You can learn to meet your own needs without asking too much of your struggling child. You can support your vulnerable kid without punishments, rewards, endless compromising, or power battles. You can experience ease and joy in your parenting life.
It's the low-demand way.
This book is readable, practical, walking you through the approach step-by-step with 30 pages of resources at the back so you can apply what you've learned.

‘Parents of neurodivergent children, especially parents of kids who fit the PDA profile of autism, will benefit from reading - in addition to giving clear guidance, her heartfelt journey of acceptance is a beautiful read.’
Debbie Reber, host of the Tilt Parenting Podcast and author of Differently Wired
"An empowering and compassionate guide for parents seeking an alternative approach to raising their children. This book beautifully captures the essence of low-demand parenting, providing practical strategies to honor children's boundaries, build trust, and nurture their authentic selves. It's a game-changer for those ready to embrace a radically respectful and joy-filled relationship with their kids. A must-read for any parent looking to break free from traditional parenting norms."
Barry M. Prizant, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Author of Uniquely Human
"Drawing from her expertise and life experience as an autistic adult, Amanda Diekman's 'Low-Demand Parenting' offers a compassionate and practical guide for parents that will increase their understanding and the experience of their neurodivergent children. Amanda provides guidance to support and develop trust with all children, even those with the most difficulty dealing with the challenges of a neurotypical world. As a result, parents will be set on a path to foster genuine connections and develop a positive sense of self. ‘Low-Demand Parenting' is a breath of fresh air given all the discipline oriented approaches that confront parents, and will be a valuable resource for creating a nurturing environment where children can thrive and be celebrated for who they are.”
