Episode description

The tragic death of an autistic 8-year-old in the UAE has raised the alarm over the pressure on carers. What support is available – and what do families need? We asked two parents with children of determination, Gareth Jones and Steph Hamilton.

We also looked at open finance, and how it could change the way families - and specifically women - save, with Sophia Bhatti, Founder & CEO, Wimbledon Wealth.

And would you turn to AI for therapy? Increasing numbers of young people are - but is that smart, or dangerous? We ask psychologist Dr Kirin Hillier and Professor Talal Abdul Ghani Shaikh of Heriot Watt University Dubai.
