1/12 A setting can/ cannot 'Meet need'. Such a cold phrase, conjuring up privileged people, not attempting to 'know, love, care for' a person, but instead discarding & excluding them. Worse, this a one-sided decision, where lived experience voices are all too often excluded.

1/7 Time for my periodic reminder about one of the most important educational research findings of the 20th century: the Eight-Year Study.
Back in the 1930s, 30 high schools around the U.S. turned traditional practice on its head, especially for college-bound students...

I am creating free access community resources with
Stimpunks Foundation to help parents/carers advocate for their young people facing barriers to education.

Planned ignoring (behaviorism) teaches individuals who need co-regulation, love, care the most, noone is there to help. It teaches that distress, emotional & physical, is where being quiet/ masking is valued more. A foundation for #mentalhealth distress 👉 stimpunks.org/why/behavioris…

Design for human diversity with timeless patterns and primordial spaces.

They’re ABAing traumatized adults.

These are both practices right out of ABA “therapy” (aka Autistic Conversion Therapy, invented by same guy who did Gay Conversion Therapy) and ABA is about conditioning kids to hide their struggles and perform normative behaviors.

Appalling.
