In this powerful episode of Through the Eyes of Trauma, we dig into a raw and necessary conversation at the intersection of parenting, trauma, and the classroom. As a new school year begins, we explore how children often carry the unspoken stories of their home lives into the classroom, and how their behavior can reflect much more than meets the eye. Join us as we unpack the lessons they bring with them, discuss ways educators can respond with empathy instead of judgment, and share strategies to create a safe, healing-centered learning environment from day one.
