PDA Family Pathway Programme
Two Distinct Programmes for Parents of Children Aged 4-11 and 12-18
A 5 Week Live Programme for Parents of PDA Children and Young People
Practical, compassionate and neuroaffirming support to reduce anxiety, remove chaos and build stronger connections at home, in school and in life.
The Realistic and Practical PDA Programme
Parenting a PDA child isn’t the same as parenting a neurotypical child. What looks like refusal or “defiance” is usually anxiety in disguise.
Many parents feel stuck in daily battles, exhausted by meltdowns, worried about school refusal and misunderstood by services. You may feel overwhelmed, unsure how to help your child feel safe, or simply alone.
None of this means you’re failing. Your child is communicating distress, they are overwhelmed, not disobedient.
What you need isn’t stricter discipline, but a PDA specific approach that reduces anxiety, builds connection and restores harmony at home.
Introducing The PDA Family Pathway
A live, guided, 5 week programme for parents of PDA children and teens.
There are two age-specific groups so every family gets support tailored to their child’s stage of development:
Preschool & Primary: Ages 4 to 11 &
Teens & Young Adults: Ages 12 to 18

Your Facilitator - Jude Morrow
"I created the PDA Family Pathway because this is my world every day, as an autistic, ADHD and PDA adult, a former social worker, and a parent of a neurodivergent child. I’ve supported thousands of families to reduce conflict, rebuild trust and help their children feel safer and more understood.
This programme is based on real lived experience, genuine collaboration with PDA young people, and practical tools that actually work. With group learning and your personal 1 to 1 session, you’ll gain strategies, confidence and a stronger connection with your child.
I look forward to supporting you". Jude Morrow
