Interoception is our ability to sense what is happening inside our body, such as:
⦿ Hunger/Fullness/Thirst
⦿ Toileting Urges
⦿ Body Temperature
⦿ Energy Levels
⦿ Pain & Discomfort
⦿ Heart Rate & Breathing
⦿ AND SO MUCH MORE!

In DIR, the question is not just whether a person can feel a signal, but whether they can make meaning of it, regulate around it, and communicate it within a safe relationship.

Consider this purely hypothetical scenario: a child in a pediatric therapy center bites another child. To get the child’s attention, the attending professional throws water from a glass at the child. The mother later sees the incident on CCTV and becomes emotionally distressed. The biting must be addressed, but a child’s unsafe behavior should never be answered with an unsafe, frightening, or humiliating response from an adult.

Under RA 7610, child abuse may include physical or psychological abuse, cruelty, emotional maltreatment, degrading treatment, and acts that place a child’s development or well-being at risk. In this scenario, throwing water or a glass at a child is not an appropriate therapeutic intervention and may raise child protection concerns depending on how it was done, how the child reacted, and whether fear, humiliation, injury, or emotional harm resulted. The parents may file a written complaint, request that the CCTV and incident records be preserved, and seek assistance from the proper child protection or professional regulatory authorities.

The facility must respond with transparency and accountability. Both children should be assessed, the parents informed, the CCTV secured, and a factual incident report completed. The involved professional should be removed from direct handling while the matter is reviewed, and the center should strengthen supervision, staff training, and behavior-support procedures.

In pediatric therapy, progress should never come at the expense of a child’s safety, dignity, and trust.

Children are not born knowing how to share, wait, take turns, join a group, or solve small conflicts.
