Quick!! Get the kids out of the house, turn the heater up, select your favourite juicy music, and let's get naked...with QuantiMama Kerri. 

Together with QuantiMama Jodi, they go straight to the sensitive pink bits; pulling apart Curious Kerri’s experience navigating the complexities of her child's mental health challenges within the educational system. 

Challenges such as:

·       the pressures on kids to be ‘normal’, to fit in & be accepted when there is a resounding pressure towards ‘success’ & achievement

·       the importance of tuning into, observing and being the greatest advocate for your kid’s wellbeing despite the limitations of the system

·       the emerging phenomena of parents being kept in the dark by well-meaning institutional representatives, under some restrictive belief that this is best advocacy practice for the child

·       a lack of family engagement from the school and the ensuing disconnect between parent & child,

·       parents' voices, values & roles as a primary carers being overlooked and understated.

There will always be extreme examples of child mistreatment and malfeasance, where the kid’s privacy must be protected by the institution BUT as QuantiMama Kerri explains, sharing a mothers first-hand account of how challenging and confronting it is to be contrary to the system, she reminds us of the importance of ‘pausing’, being guided by love (not fear), and the imperative to gather relevant information and advocate for ‘option C’.

Quantifolks, you are not alone in your parenting journey. This episode is a heartfelt reminder of the power of curiosity, advocacy, and love, in navigating the challenges of raising resilient children, and in this case, resilient parents.

A-faarking-men!!
