Amanda : Raising a Middle Schooler (Part 2)

from Development Desk · host Ana

In Part 2, Ana and Amanda move into the hard conversations parents don’t always know how to name—classroom behavior, discipline, sensory overwhelm, and when advocacy feels necessary but uncomfortable. They unpack what schools are required to do, why parents often feel brushed off, and how direct, documented communication can change the trajectory for a child. Woven throughout is a candid discussion about screen limits, social media pressure, and how our own upbringing influences the boundaries we set today.https://www.youtube.com/@DevelopmentDesk
