It's that time of year again.

Dysregulation is increasing, holidays are starting, and school is becoming a very hard place for our kids (and their teachers!)

Mid to late October begins a very predictable pattern of dysregulation in the families I work with.

It's one thing for this to happen at home, but it's probably happening at school, too. 

Now what do you do?

Today's episode kicks of a series on Supporting our Kids (and their teachers!) at School and I have some pretty amazing guests planned for you.

When we find ourselves in the position of advocating for our kids at school, we get to use the same skills we use with our kids.

First- Regulate ourselves!
Next- Connect and use co-regulation skills (validate, language like "Of course you feel that way")
Third- Assure them you're on their team and have the same goals
Fourth- Offer to help without the help causing more stress (IE, don't send a 250 page book to read)

In this episode, I even give a sample script on emailing your child's teacher after some not-so-trauma-informed behavior management techniques have been used.

You can head over to my blog to get a copy of that script.  https://robyngobbel.com/schooladvocacy
