This is definitely my experience too. You have to understand the context in which the phrase was learnt in order to understand what it means to the person. Like one child I knew who would say ‘good boy’ when he wanted to end an interaction.

Thanks so much to @BPSOfficial and @cypnow for collaborating here, supporting solutions for all those that champion and advocate for our children. Reflecting on how we view and talk about children is an important priority for sharing how we support them 💜 www.cypnow.co.uk/content/blog...

💯% this. Mental health/wellbeing exists in, develops in and is maintained or damaged by context. Individual factors may well be a part of the picture, but they are in no way the whole picture.

Dr Abigail Wright/PsychEdMum @psychedmum.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Ideas to support ‘mental health’ are often based on the that it is something completely internal and ‘within’ a person only. Yet, the reality is that we don’t exist separately from a context around us and our experiences of that. We can’t separate ourselves from this. They shape things for us. 1/4

A wonderful morning yesterday with teachers and students on the National MA Education (Wales) as part of the Emotional and Mental Health & Wellbeing Module. I created most slides from my hobby Insta graphics 💜 So proud to share & reflect with such champions of our children and young people 🥇🦸‍♂️

Photograph of a Laptop with cappuccino next to it. with an image of my first slide which has a picture of ‘There is a ‘me’ in mental health, but also a ‘we’ in wellbeing: Supporting ourselves to support others’

"The child becomes exhausted trying to convince clinicians of their perspective, defending against expertise based on preconceived, erroneous, medicalized, or neuronormative ideas" Excellent paper on experience sensitive approaches to autistic healthcare. Very relevant for education too. #EdPsychs

"A lasting solution would also involve the recognition of something fundamental: that there are things we now know about education and child psychology that cannot be forgotten, and that embedding them in the way government provides education and care is going to need extra money." #edpsychs

I'd like to do a blog in the future on books TEPs have found useful to support their training/ would be helpful for AEPs, applicants or even EPs to reconnect with some basics around Educational Psychology practice. Have a few up my sleeve already but #edpsychs any recommendations I can add in?

"Your child might feel many emotions, including sad, angry or scared. Be available for them, don't be too quick to distract them, and at the end, remind them of all the good things about starting school" Practical advice in this article from @psychedmum.bsky.social about starting school. #EdPsychs
