What We Pay Attention To
Featured
This 2-minute video for parents features Mental Health Therapist Stephanie Dann talking about what we pay attention to as parents.
Uploaded Nov 19, 2020 to COVID-19 Information
- When times are hard, we tend to focus more on correcting and what kids are doing wrong.
- Sometimes we get tunnel visioned and don’t see the times they are doing things right, those small glimpses of controlling emotions, maturity, and problem solving.
- Changing your focus can change how you feel about parenting.
- Noticing and letting kids know we see their positive behaviors increases the likelihood they will do more of it in the future too!
Challenge: Try to notice one positive thing your student does each day this week, tell them what you are seeing! Just say the positive and walk away, don’t say the positive and end it with, “but you need to work on…” -

- Thoughts impact how we feel and how we feel impacts what we do. We can help students to think differently through cognitive coaching.
- Validating how our students think and feel is the first step before problem solving.
- Help your student to evaluate: is this thought true, helpful, or kind? If not, how can I think differently about this situation.
Challenge: It is hard to see our students struggle, try hard at first to validate their experience before helping them to think differently! -
