Love this. Great example of attunement between baby and mum! I’ve always been puzzled by why you get ante natal classes to help you with the birth but reinforcing the importance of this type of interaction isn’t a prerequisite when you have a baby!!

Reading this and thinking how the ideas resonate with our ‘Building on Positive Relationships’ approach in NA. Importance of the adult setting the emotional tone (adult presence), scripts to help de-escalate and ‘positive noticing’ (relational gestures). Great practical advice!

I absolutely love seeing all the Christmas trees and lights when I’m out and about at this time of year! I think it might be about connection, that regardless of our religious beliefs we can all come together at one time and have hope that there is some light in the darkness!🎄

Some interesting points in this article! Whilst it is discussing the English system - some of its arguments undoubtedly apply in Scotland, particularly around labelling! SEND: a label worth having? tes.com/magazine/teach…

If you are concerned that someone you know may be suicidal, please ask them directly whether they have been thinking about suicide. It could save a life #TimeToTalk

This article really struck a chord! The medical model of mental illness that it is biological often ignores the complexity of its origins and that it is a response to the very real social world and incredibly challenging situations we find ourselves in! amp.theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

Punishments. Logical consequences. Natural Consequences. Oh my! I often see these being confused and conflated. Here's the difference... 🧵👇

The Bad Kid Myth No child is born with a heart made of stone, No plan to ruin your day when they wake, alone. Behaviors you see are a cry, not a curse, A story untold in actions, not words. For deep within, there’s a hunger, a need, A longing for kindness, attention to
