Don't Teach Kids through Trauma - Teach through Connection

Don't Teach Kids through Trauma - Teach through Connection

Picture this. You take your child to swimming class and it's a pretty unfamiliar environment. They haven't met the teacher before. It's noisy. It's all new and pretty overwhelming. It might also be quite enticing and interesting, but there's also a huge dose of new and unknown in there. The time comes around for your child's lesson to start. And you take your child over to the edge of the pool. The teacher's standing in the pool, looking up. Checking the clock and saying, "just pass it to me. She'll be okay." Your child does not agree. Your child is clinging to you. Crying screaming and quite simply not feeling ready to do what the teacher is asking. We all learn best through connection, relationship building when we're in a calm headspace. When we're intrigued, when we're feeling supported. Put simply, nobody learns well when they're in a state of trauma. Today we discuss why teaching kids through trauma isn't the way, and ideas for how teaching through connection can look. Learn more with me about this topic and many others!
