Communication that Empowers, Repairs, and Connects
The way we talk to and about our students matters. Join us to hear from Karys Foley (RSW Specializing in Complex Behaviour) as she explains that the language we use to describe challenging behaviour is often laden with shame and blame, which inevitably leads to wounding. Hurt kids will develop emotional defenses such as resistance, shutdown, and non-compliance. In this session we will focus on communication and approaches that encourage and empower our students to do their best. This session will provide insight into the underlying causes of problematic behaviour and the importance of using strategies that are devoid of shame and blame.
