Yale School of Medicine, "Parenting During COVID-19"

 

Aloha,

This is a great article on parenting during COVID-19. It provides some great tips that can be found on many sites. However, I did want to focus in on one piece of advice- "Increase predictability in your child's environment by developing and maintaining reasonable routines."

Two key principles in building wellness and resilience through trauma informed care are to develop "safety and connection" for the individual. There is more research that supports the 'Predicting Brain" model that emphasizes the need for our brain to develop networks of "safety" and "connection." Predictable and reasonable routines can help a child's safety and connection brain network. When these networks are calm, the learning network can function.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Danny
