When you share bad news about your personal life with someone, does it help any if/when they respond by telling you their own similar experiences? Is there something else that would be more helpful to hear?
Not in all cases.
My daughter was recently diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder - TANC2 Syndrome - which means she has limited speech, may potentially have seizures, is autistic and can be aggressive.
I do appreciate hearing from some people with their experience of having non verbal children but others who are kinda dismissive by saying ''oh she'll be fine, I knew a child xyz who didn't speak until 4'' can be quite annoying.
