And just shut down.

That's it.

It's this is not for me.

And so many of them had social ostracism, so many of them were told that they were stupid.

So many of them had low expectations for their academics.

So many of them were closed out from having social conversations around books.

I mean

You know, uh the Harry Potter series was like a global phenomenon, and yet so many of these kids, because they thought reading wasn't for them, were closed out of that cultural conversation and felt even more alienated by that.

Um, so early intervention for reading stuff.

And in the past, I've written in uh various articles that there's sort of a balance to be made about um I wrote an article based on the book Leo the Late Bloomer, because I've always loved that book so much, about that balance between not pushing them too hard and not being impatient when our kids aren't reading.

Having that balance I think is gonna be really important, but also, you know, asking those questions.

Are you teacher, are you getting nervous about the fact that my kids still can't read?

Or are you getting nervous about um his tendency to disrupt classroom behavior and get all the other kids off track?

And

Then meeting with a teacher meeting and I talk a lot about school counselors and school nurses and their ability to direct you toward resources that can be really helpful, especially for people who need sliding scale pay and that kind of stuff.

Um, but the social ostracism and then early aggression is a really big risk factor b m often because it then can go turned into social ostracism.

So the early aggression, um, early learning issues, social ostracism, those are sort of the big three and you can see how those self perpetuate each other.

So if we see that happening with our kids, especially the early aggression, I think it's gonna be really important.

from a danger perspective, of course, to seek outside counsel about how to best help our kids.
