Non Linear Learning - Rethinking Education for Neurodivergent Learners

192 The Cost of Low Expectations (and the #1 Shift to Break Free)


Listen Later

The biggest barrier in your child's education isn't Autism, Down syndrome, or even learning disabilities. It's low expectations.

When a 12-year-old is handed board books or toddler math, the hidden message is: "This is all I think you can do." That belief shapes motivation, behavior, trust, and hope for the future.

In this episode of Non Linear Learning, Dr. Vaish Sarathy unpacks the true cost of low expectations and shares the #1 shift to break free: speaking to your child with age appropriate language.

You'll hear:

  1. Why "presuming competence" isn't enough

  2. How low expectations create a vicious cycle of poor behavior and lost trust

  3. ONE Simple way to change this and expand your child's thought process
