In All Corners

❤️I think this is a conversation we need to have more. Not just at school, not just where it relates to children as students and teachers accommodating them.
We need this conversation taking place in homes. So our children can access support in all corners of their lives and so parents can better understand how to support their children and themselves. (Because parents struggle to regulate too 🌻)

At In All Corners, our goal is to support children while also standing in the corners of ALL their support people. Sensory integration is an important factor when working with individuals who need additional support. We are so excited to be attending ExpoSense in order to expand our knowledge base in order to understand and help meet the needs of each family and allied health professional we work with.

This event is open to educators and families and is worth attending. ⭐️

In All Corners is looking for voices to share and perspectives to shine a spot light on.

We are inviting you --> educators, parents and other allied professionals to reach out so we can give you a platform to share your thoughts and experiences.

We all benefit from shared thoughts, experiences and professional input. Not all who are in need of help can afford to get it.

We would love to share with our growing community of parents, educators and professionals, real input that will have a positive impact on them as they walk alongside their neurodivergent or special needs children, students, clients or colleagues.

If you have something to contribute, even the smallest nuggets of wisdom and compassion can build a wealth of support.

Unpopular opinion?

We SHOULD be stepping on each other's toes. We SHOULD be finding ways to learn from each other as professionals and to work together (regardless of title or qualification). We SHOULD be holding each other accountable, especially when we are working with children and even more so when we are working within groups that deserve better advocacy.

When we as professionals try to “claim our space”, when we mark and protect our "territory" be it a specific school, area code or scope of practice, we are not acting in the best interest of our communities. We are inhibiting the professional growth of others, we are preventing children and families from accessing intervention.

We as individuals are not perfect. We cannot meet every need and we don't have the capacity to see every child. Sometimes we are just not the right fit- but no one else is allowed in the circle- so a child who could be doing better isn't. A family with financial constraints loses an opportunity to gain access to services.

If we occupy space in a way that scares other service providers away instead of bringing them in to collaborate, we not only prevent them from learning and growing, from and with us, we prevent families from having full access to what is available to them on a larger scale.

‼️ There is more than enough space for us as professionals in the arena of special needs, neurodiversity and learning and support needs. There is no shortage of struggling children, overwhelmed families and untrained educators. ‼️

By working together, as professionals, we not only have the opportunity to learn from one another but also to build a network to lean on, a sounding board for ideas and a platform for advocacy and reform. We have the opportunity to work together to build something that changes the way that children and families experience interventions and support, while also offering an opportunity to us as professionals to truly see each other as peers and value each other for the varied knowledge, perspective and experiences we bring to the table. This is how we meet the needs of our communities holistically.

So the question to ask ourselves becomes:

Am I taking up space so that I alone benefit or am I opening up a space where community needs are being met collaboratively and holistically?

THIS! Reward charts can be more harmful than good especially for neurodivergent kids. Lets take an ADHD child for example, who functions on impulse before logic 99% of the time. A reward chart makes the assumption that the shouting out answers, getting up from their seat or the emotional outburst was a premeditated behaviour. As an ADHD adult I can assure you that a large portion of my daily life I am correcting my own behaviour after saying or doing something out of impulse without a plan. The difference? I have had 30 odd years to learn and use skills I need to self monitor and correct.

Reward charts and their consequences do not belong in neuro affirming classrooms, especially in the early primary years where even a typical child still lacks the executive functioning and logic skills needed to self monitor.
