Clarinda The Baby Nurse

in their own words health care professionals are "asking for to much"! no they're commenting on his challenges and strengths and what is going to help build his capacity and best support him in every day life. Months of advocating to sit on a 1 hour call that is already pre determined, our say means nothing. He has been doing so well in Behaviour therapy however they're now structuring it so its under behavioural supports and only certain professionals can access this funding (practioniers that bill at a higher rate mind you meaning less actual therapy support) despite advocating and saying his current therapist can't bill under this category and they will have to cancel his therapy.... they did not care.

just another rant.... all these funding cuts! they should be looking at what providers are allowed to charge which is actually set by the NDIS. recently my sons therapist was on leave and said she could provide a resource pack which I accepted. they still tried to charge for the session as if we where seeing the therapist in person at the exact same rate. whilst im the one implementing the work and strategies? but mind you this is allowed!!! they're reforming the wrong the wrong elements.

Can we talk about the fear so many NDIS parents aren't saying out loud?

My son's plan recently rolled over, and while I'm incredibly grateful that his supports have continued, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared.

Scared to ask for more.

Scared to advocate for what he may need as he grows.

Scared of making the "wrong" decision.

As parents, we're constantly told to advocate for our children. But when you're navigating a system that feels uncertain, it's hard not to wonder... *what if asking for more changes everything?*

Then there's the judgement.

The judgement from people who don't understand what life is like behind closed doors.

The judgement that somehow our children are "getting too much" support, when the reality is that every hour of therapy, every report, every appointment and every support exists because our children face challenges most people never see.

Navigating the unknown is exhausting.

Not knowing what changes may come. Not knowing whether you're making the right choices. Carrying the weight of decisions that can have such a huge impact on your child's future.

I know I'm not the only parent who has felt this way.

So if you're an NDIS parent reading this, I want you to know you're not alone.

Let's have the conversations that so many of us keep to ourselves.

💙 Have you ever felt scared to advocate because of the uncertainty? I'd love to hear your experience in the comments.
