In this month’s Tourette Talk, Jeremy Lichtman will continue the discussion on how parents can play a powerful role in supporting children with tics. Based on the information learned in the previous webinar, we will discuss methods of healthy parenting of children with tic disorders that will hopefully lessen stress around symptoms for everyone involved. Join us as we continue delving into strategies to help families of children with tic disorders strengthen their bonds.
