Before children have words for how they feel, they have sensations.

The brain is constantly taking in information through sound, movement, touch, sight, and internal body cues—and using it to answer one essential question: Am I safe?

That answer shapes behaviour, attention, emotional regulation, and learning.

This quote offers an important reframe for how we understand emotional experiences—both in ourselves and in our children.

Emotions are not objective reports of events. They are internal signals shaped by perception, past experiences, nervous system states, and context. Two people can encounter the same situation and have very different emotional responses—not because one is “right” and the other is “wrong,” but because each nervous system is interpreting the moment through its own lens.

For children, this distinction is critical. When we treat emotions as information rather than accusations, we create space for curiosity instead of defensiveness. A child’s big feelings are not a verdict on our parenting or someone else’s behaviour; they are clues about what feels safe, threatening, confusing, or overwhelming inside that child.

Supporting emotional development means helping children learn:
🩷 to notice what they feel,
🩷 to name it,
🩷 to connect it to their perceptions,
🩷 and to respond with regulation rather than reaction.

This is how emotional literacy becomes a lifelong skill—not by dismissing feelings, but by understanding where they come from. 🩷

This month of February, we’ll explore how sensory experiences support developing brains and why sensory-informed environments matter—for wellbeing, connection, and resilience.

An astounding 50% of girls are missed in the diagnosis process because their impulsivity and hyperactivity are often undermined as being “boyish“.

Girls with ADHD/ADD feel socially rejected more often:
Both boys and girls with ADHD and ADD miss social clues, have only a few friends. However, this social reclusiveness seems to bother girls much more than boys.

Anxiety is (or may be) a major issue:
Worry tends to be a big factor for girls with ADHD. Girls worry about mishaps that may or may not happen in future, and get easily distracted from the present situation. Many girls will often set unrealistic goals for themselves and when they fall short, anxiety about everything around them takes over.

Girls Compensate for Anxiety with Compulsive Behavior:
Mothers often say that their daughters are so worried about forgetting homework or a social event that they will make extensive lists in an attempt to organize them. Hyper-focusing on the future and making endless list often causes girls to lose track of time and actually forget to do the task at hand.

As one can see many young girls are not diagnosed as early as boys are. However, untreated ADHD/ADD in middle school and high school girls pose some severe issues. The psychological aspects of ADHD/ADD begin to unfold as there are more social events and organizational skills needed to study at higher grade levels.

For our Australian parents whose children head back to school tomorrow.

For many families, the hardest part of the school day isn’t the learning — it’s the goodbye.

This visual explains why goodbyes can feel so intense, especially when separation anxiety is present, and how a clear, predictable goodbye plan can help mornings feel safer for children and parents.

If drop-offs leave you feeling upset, guilty, or torn, please know this:
hard goodbyes are not a sign you’re doing something wrong — they’re a sign of strong attachment.

Save this, share it with someone who needs it, and go gently with yourselves this week.

I am 3...

If you’ve ever wished you could step inside your child’s emotional world for a moment… this series is for you.

Over the next two weeks, I’m sharing A Child’s Voice — a gentle, brain-based set of visuals that puts words to what children often can’t explain yet. It’s not about “perfect parenting”… it’s about understanding what regulation really looks like from the inside out, and why connection is the starting point.

We’ll be running the full series from 2 to 16, with daily posts you can come back to whenever things feel loud, messy, or overwhelming at home.

With autism rates on the rise, it is more important than ever to recognize that adults with autism can exhibit a range of subtle and often overlooked traits. By raising awareness and understanding of these characteristics, we can foster greater empathy, support, and acceptance for autistic individuals in various aspects of life. It is crucial for society to challenge stereotypes and misconceptions about autism, and to appreciate the unique strengths and challenges that autistic adults experience. This understanding will help create more inclusive environments and promote the well-being of autistic individuals throughout their lives. ( Pine Behavioral Health)
