SOCIETY’S CHILD | Christian Teacher Support for Managing Disruptive Behaviors

👉Are you feeling stretched to the limit on time so the demand for connecting, understanding and responding to your troubled students gets pushed to the back burner? 👉Do you feel you have little understanding and resources of how to apply the trauma-informed strategies you’ve learned and you keep asking yourself, “now what?” 👉Do you find yourself alone in a sea of “traditional approaches to student behavior” and yearn for simple ways of applying the new trauma-responsive strategies in your classroom? 👉Do you find yourself triggered by your own students’ behavior with a tendency to respond to students the way you grew up only to find yourself blowing up after things pile up, letting emotional tension build?. ”Welcome to The Society’s Child Podcast, a sanctuary for Christian educators seeking solace and strategies in the realm of trauma-informed education.

View Student Behaviours as Seeking Connection
2024-10-20
As a teacher who has brought home and replayed negative classroom behaviours over in my mind and how I could have handled things differently, this podcast is so on point! Trish understands that as teachers, we just want negative behaviours to stop! She reminds teachers to pause, so that our response can be kind, yet firm, and not simply reactive. She encourages teachers to view behaviours as a student’s way of seeking connection. I will be listening to Society’s Child on my drive to work as a primer for facing students I have been asked to steward with greater grace.
Such a needed show!

This show is a must listen for educators and also for parents. Trish has such a compassionate approach to talking about difficult subjects that is SO NEEDED in our culture today. Thanks for your wisdom, this is a show that can help so many educators, parents, and children.
So needed

With the rise of dysfunction in homes and the enemy attacking children, it is crucial that we stay aware of children who have experienced trauma. I know I did, and I wished others would have picked it up and helped me when I was young. Thank you for advocacy for children especially who have come from hurt from others and supporting teachers with your own background and your experience as a Foster and Adoptive mom to make a change for the little ones! Blessings, Christina Johnson- The Rule & Reign for Believers Podcast

Trish, your podcast is so needed. To help heal our children and youth, requires trauma-informed care from all the people in the environments in which the young person lives and functions. I enjoyed the episode on compassion resistance. Educators also need to understand and be part of the trauma-informed movement. I like that you stress having compassion for educators who may be compassion-resistant as they may have had their own trauma and experiences that inform how they think. I look forward to more episodes.
