After our physiological needs are met,we need to biologically attach. We have brain circuitry wired for attachment (limbic).Within schools, attachment should come before everything. It's all about attachment. For pupis, it's an absolute necessity. Everything else will follow.🧠🌱

Our core task is to regulate the brainstem of our young people who are dysregulated. A child who is dysregulated will not be able to engage .We need to regulate the brainstem back to the thinking brain so our young people can access skills needed for cognitive processing.🧠🌱

If you understand trauma & understand adolescent brain science,we are punishing young people & wondering why it isn't getting better. In education, we need need to understand brain development & how children behave. This would change educational settings for the better.🧠🌱
