Seatbelts, Stories, and Survival

Season 1 · Episode 12

Wednesday, July 22, 2026 • Duration 38:19

Today we’re talking about car rides — because for families like ours, getting from one place to another is never as simple as just getting in that car. Car rides can be calming, predictable, contained, rhythmic, and low-demand. It can also feel like a complete loss of control, with no escape from the noise, smells, sun, siblings, seatbelts. And sometimes, it’s both. So today we’re talking about what car rides can mean for our kids and what they can do to us as parents, and all the things we’ve learned the hard way.

The Invisible Admin Job

Season 1 · Episode 11

Tuesday, July 7, 2026 • Duration 42:22

Today we’re talking about the invisible admin of parenting a child with disabilities or complex needs.

The forms. Renewals. Appointments. Referrals. Funding applications. School emails or texts. Medication tracking. Waitlists. Guardianship paperwork.

It’s the advocacy, memory, project management, emotional labour, crisis prevention, and systems navigation, usually done by one exhausted parent who is already holding a thousand other things.

And today we’re talking about how hard it is to keep proving your child needs support, over and over again, while trying to remember that your child is so much more than the paperwork version of them.

The Moments That Keep Us Going

Season 1 · Episode 10

Tuesday, June 23, 2026 • Duration 40:23

We’re talking about love, gratitude, happy surprises, and the little moments that don’t look big to anyone else, but to us, they are everything. A good transition. A shared joke. A quiet car ride. A hug that came out of nowhere. A skill they worked so hard for that finally clicked.Like when your child laughs at something completely unexpected, or when the whole day has been hard and then suddenly there’s a tiny moment of beauty.

Because in families like ours, joy doesn’t always arrive loudly. Sometimes it’s tucked inside the chaos. Sometimes it’s sitting right beside exhaustion. And sometimes it’s the thing that keeps us going.

Platitudes Attitudes and Gratitudes

Season 1 · Episode 9

Tuesday, June 16, 2026 • Duration 35:09

Have you ever shared something hard about your child, your home, your exhaustion, your fear, and someone responded with, “Well, everything happens for a reason”?

And suddenly you weren’t comforted. You were quiet.

That’s what we’re talking about today.

We’re talking about the things people say to neurodivergent families. The little comments. The well-meaning advice. The “at leasts.” The “Everything happens for a reason.” The “God only gives special children to special parents.”

And here’s the complicated part: most people are not trying to hurt us. A lot of them are trying to help. But sometimes, the words that are meant to comfort us actually make us feel more alone.

The Storm Before The Calm

Season 1 · Episode 7

Tuesday, June 9, 2026 • Duration 39:35

Today's episode is about “Meltdowns”

Not a child being dramatic.

Not a child throwing a tantrum. Not a child trying to embarrass you in public.

We’re talking about those moments where it feels like a switch flips — and suddenly your child is no longer able to reason, listen, explain, compromise, or calm themselves down.

And if you are the caregiver, you know how helpless that can feel. Because you are not dealing with a behavior problem. You are dealing with a child who has lost access to the skills they usually have.

Meltdowns are hard.

They can be loud, scary, embarrassing, and completely exhausting — physically, emotionally, and mentally.

And if you’ve ever sat in the car after a hard moment, just trying to gather yourself before going back inside…If you’ve ever taken an extra-long shower just so you could cry where no one could hear you…If you’ve ever screamed into a pillow, replayed the whole thing in your mind, wondered what you missed, what you could have done differently, or how you’re going to make it through the next one…

You are not alone.

Take the deep breath. Take the break when you can. And please, give yourself the same grace you are trying so hard to give your child.

You are doing hard, exhausting, important work.

And we see you.

We’ve been there. We're still there. And we are right here in it with you.

The Space Between Here and There

Season 1 · Episode 7

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 42:38

Today we’re talking about transitions.

For many special needs families, transitions are where the day is won or lost.

Not because our kids are trying to be difficult.

Or because they’re being stubborn.

And not because we, as parents, have somehow failed to teach them better.

Transitions require flexibility, communication, emotional regulation, trust, and the ability to shift from what is happening now to what is coming next.

And for many of our kids, those are exactly the areas where they need extra support.

So today, we’re going to talk about why transitions can be so hard, what they can feel like for our kids, what they can feel like for us as parents, and how we can create a little more calm in the middle of those in-between moments.

Because sometimes the hardest part of the day isn’t the activity itself.

It’s getting from one thing to the next.

The Routine That Saves Us...Until it Doesn't

Season 1 · Episode 6

Wednesday, May 27, 2026 • Duration 36:48

Today we’re talking about routines.

Not perfect routines. Not pretty routines.

We’re talking about the routines that help families get through the day.

For many children with special needs, routine is safety. It helps them know what’s coming, what to expect, and what is expected of them. It can create calm in a world that often feels unpredictable.

And for parents, routines can be the difference between a manageable day and a complete meltdown.

So today, we’re going to talk about why routines matter, what happens when they fall apart, and why respecting a family’s routine can be one of the most helpful things you can do.

Because sometimes routine isn’t about control.

It’s about survival.

The Great Escape Artists

Season 1 · Episode 5

Tuesday, May 19, 2026 • Duration 41:03

Today’s episode is about the wandering, disappearing humans in our lives.

Most parents worry their child will get lost.

Some special needs parents live with the fear that their child will leave a safe place.

There is a kind of fear that changes the way you sleep.

The kind where you don’t just lock the door — you check it three times.

You install alarms. You know the sound of footsteps. You can’t fully relax in a hotel room, at a campsite, in a grocery store, or even in your own backyard.

Because some kids wander.

Some kids bolt.

Some kids are runners.

And if you know, you know.

Season 1 · Episode 4

Monday, May 11, 2026 • Duration 36:31

In this episode of Laugh Cry Rage Repeat, Jennifer and Kim share the special needs parenting stories that are too messy, shocking, hilarious, or painful for polite dinner-table conversation — from meltdowns and injuries to dark humour, survival, and feeling truly understood.

Medications

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, May 4, 2026 • Duration 28:20

Welcome to Laugh Cry Rage Repeat—where we talk about the real, messy, emotional side of caregiving and parenting.

Today, we’re talking about medication. Not just the prescriptions themselves—but everything that comes with them. The trial and error. The hope. The side effects. The moments you question everything. And the quiet wins that sometimes come out of nowhere.

For families like ours, medication isn’t a one-time decision—it’s a journey. One that shifts over time, especially when your child is complex and the answers aren’t always clear.

This is our story. The good, the frustrating, the heartbreaking… and even the moments you have to laugh, because what else can you do?
