We must shift from “They’re fine in school” to “What does this child need to feel safe everywhere?” Masking is real. When only the masked version is seen, parents face disbelief—or worse, blame. Book: www.thepdaspace.com/Parent_Blame... #ParentBlame #PDA

Delighted to share our publication on the wider impacts of #SchoolDistress. This research sheds light on the systemic trauma parents endure, the impact of this trauma, and the urgent need for more compassionate, supportive systems #ParentBlame #MentalHealth See 👉 www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...

Ella’s Human Rights Claim: Mistreatment coupled with #parentblame “If I’m totally honest the system makes you into a difficult, challenging, angry person at times. That’s not who you are, but you become this fighter, because you have to… stand up for your child’s needs.”
