Talk to your kids. Look for depressed or irritable mood. Remember SIGE CAPS : changes in sleep, interest, guilt (fear of failure, self-critical, deserves to be punished), energy, concentration (indecision), appetite, psychomotor agitation or retardation, and/or suicidal ideation – at Connecticut, USA

My community has had several teens take their own lives in the last few weeks. We are heartbroken but resolved to break this cycle of end-of-year despair. Talk to your kids. Here are some excellent tips for talking to them calmly, lovingly, and without judgement.

Our hearts go out to the Uvalde, TX community who has experienced a tragedy today. In the wake of tragedies, students may be confused and frightened. NASP has resources for responding to school violence and talking with children about violence. bit.ly/39O4ZkX

Mental health challenges can impact a student's ability to participate in learning. As we recover – it’s important that our efforts go beyond literacy & math to helping students build their social, emotional, and mental health skills

“You often hear the quote from Mr. Rogers, ‘Look for the helpers.’ I like to flip that to ‘How can you be the helper?’” Dr. Silverman said. When kids are given the opportunity to assist others, it gives them a feeling of agency, she said, which can be comforting."

A very insightful thread. Teachers should read and consider what school feels like to students with similar daily routine challenges.
