Every interaction is either drawing a child closer or pushing them further away, and we know that they store these messages and it's our job to help them co-regulate, not to dismiss or invalidate their emotions, even if the emotions are hard for us.
Imagine a classroom where a teacher not only educates but also safeguards the well-being of their students. In this episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', host Bill Murray sits down with Teresa Anderson, a trauma-informed teacher from Minnesota, to discuss the crucial role schools can play in identifying and preventing child abuse. Teresa shares her experiences and insights on how teachers, who are often on the front lines, can spot the subtle signs of abuse that might otherwise go unnoticed.
From changes in behavior to physical indicators, she explains what educators should look out for and the importance of mandated reporting. Teresa also delves into the concept of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and their long-term impact on children's mental and physical health. She emphasizes the need for validation and emotional support for survivors, highlighting how crisis intervention and prevention strategies can make a significant difference.
Throughout the episode, both Teresa and Bill provide practical tips and resources for anyone looking to better understand and address child abuse. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or concerned community member, this episode offers valuable insights into creating a safer environment for children.
