MAKE IT MAKE SENSE?!?!?!?

"Study after study shows that students' comprehension is better when they read printed material, rather than content on screens," writes Kara Alaimo, a professor of communication at Fairleigh Dickinson University.

"Similarly, they comprehend more when they write notes by hand rather than typing them." | Analysis https://cnn.it/4dIxJdA

GrowNOW Parent Training: Before you blame the kid — check the room.

Not every meltdown is a missing skill. Sometimes the environment is doing too much work against them.

Your kid plays with the dog instead of getting ready. Messes around on the Chromebook during a boring lesson. Does laps around the house instead of finishing a chore.

And your brain goes straight to: what’s wrong with them?

Here’s the reframe: What did they do instead of the task? What was so easily available that it pulled them off course?

Sometimes it’s not a skill deficit. Sometimes the environment is loaded with competition — and we haven’t removed enough of it.

Before you build a new skill, ask: Is this the environment failing them?

I wrote about this exact trap in The Executive Function Playbook — how burned-out parents can start pathologizing normal childhood behavior without even realizing it.

Sometimes the work isn’t skill-building for the child.

It’s parent training. Building a better environment so kids can actually succeed — and parents can finally do less.
