This is so true. My senior year my dad was in the emergency room and the next day I forgot my cleats for my softball game and my coach and team was so angry at me. No one cared enough to ask.
Your Mrs. O’Hara was my Mrs. Parrott. I teach in grad school and just attended a trauma Informed Pedagogy training session. This subsequently lead me to watch your talk. It all came flooding back as I recalled me at age 15. The whole time through the training session I experienced empathy but had completely suppressed the memories of my teenage years. Watching you has resurfaced it all and I’m glad about this. I have students in my institution who are going through a lot right now. I need to be a Mrs. Parrott. Thank you for helping me realize this ❤️
I know im asking randomly but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
@Arjun Nickolas Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Arjun Nickolas DAMN IT ACTUALLY WORKED! Literally hacked my Instagram account after about 40 mins of using the site. Thank you so much, you saved my account !
Being trustworthy is completely underrated. We cannot build a healthy society if we don't feel safe. We gotta teach our kids that being trustworthy means that you are reliable and that nurtures healthy relationships.
Beautiful presentation. While most kids don’t experience high impact trauma like the death of a direct family member, I think education institutes should mandate trauma training for all teachers regardless because it is vital in the development of those effected young people.
Thank you Dr Fox for such an emotional and positive story - I am researching trauma informed schools for an interview as a behaviour outreach teacher which I am attending tomorrow. I have learned more from your amazing presentation and personal story than I think I would ever have learned from reading training material! You are an inspiration :)
Now I understand what this whole movement is.....watched Frontline documentary last evening.....from September 11th to racial disparities...to COVID...there's been so much. Let's hope that a strong faith practice is the balance to the psychology of teaching and learning.....
Please don’t take my comments as criticism. I loved her passionate presentation. I had many traumatic experiences as a child, and a few teachers like her Art teacher. None of them were trauma informed. But all of them were kind, compassionate people. But what she is talking about is not “trauma informed “ teaching. She outlined very well what she received (and what EVERY student needs): compassion, care, human touch, forgiveness… You can’t learn compassion from a webinar, from a TedTalk on trauma, from a book on adverse childhood experiences. In fact, no child wants to tell and to talk about trauma; they want to be loved, and move on. Doesn’t every student want love and compassion? Treat every student with love, and you wouldn’t need to be “trauma informed “.
I'm just watching this as part of my PD for the week at 7:30pm and now I have tears streaming down my face. Thank you for sharing this.
