When The Kids Are Failing School At The Other HouseOften times when we step in to bail the other parent out, we are enabling them to continue failing as parents. We think we are helping the kids, and perhaps they do benefit in the short-run in some way, but in the big picture we are usually playing into codependency dynamics.This is a game that currently gets played out with the kids' schooling, especially when they are learning remotely. One household lets them fail and the other gets pulled in to bail them out. The home that lets them fail offloads all accountability onto the kids and onto you to rescue. When dealing with a narcissistic ex, they create a situation where you seem to have to choose between engaging the narcissist and letting the kids fail. It is one of the classic games they play.We know that bailing the other parent out is part of the narcissistic game that keeps us feeding attention to the other parent. They fail and struggle to draw us in and to offload responsibility onto us. We rescue and compensate for their lack of engagement with the kids and get baited into needless contact with them.But we're not doing anyone any favors. Yes, of course we always have a responsibility to make sure the kids do well academically. Academic success is a core responsibility we always carry as parents. The way we can help our kids in this seemingly no-win situation is to introduce logical consequences when they don't show up for themselves to take initiative in their own education. In other words, we have to train them in the skill of showing up for themselves and performing self-sufficiently, which may require us to be the disciplinarian.We take on this role because we do not want the kids to develop the habit of hiding behind the narcissistic parent's neglect that enables the kids to be lazy and undeveloped...#coparenting #coparentingdoneright #codependentnomore #coparentingwithanarcissist #coparentingwithatoxicex #blendedfamily #blendedfamilyproblems #divorcedmom #divorceddad #divorcedparents #divorcedmoms #parallelparenting #unapologeticparenting #narcissisticmother #narcissisticfather #toxicrelationships #toxicfamily #stepparenting

Schooling. We have all gone through some form of it, public, private, homeschool, etc. But with all the new challenges of 2020 schooling has taken a new route for most parents with children at home. Its called “Distance Learning” and it is definitely a new challenge to overcome. Our Children are now expected to sit on a computer for their entire learning experience for hours at a time. You may like it or you may hate it, but today Corey and I discuss the new school guidelines. Beyond that we also talk about public schooling and how we feel its a failing system. There are many things we all remember about school, but being parents we are much more critical now than before. Follow along as we discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of our public school system, and some of the decisions we will be making when it comes to our families.

There’s times I start wondering why anybody tries to do anything to help people these days when it seems that people are no longer able to help themselves.So this morning I’m reading about the nations before school check programme.When every child in the country turns four they are offered a check up which can help identify health, behavioural, social or developmental issues, such as a hearing problem, which could affect learning. The aim is to help those children access health and learning support.About 55,000 children will be covered this year at a cost of more than $10 million.That sounds good. But after a review called Welcome to School, there are concerns that the programme isn’t working and in fact making things worse.So how on earth can anyone stuff up a health check. One example given was the eye test. There had been a misunderstanding about what checks covered. Schools thought that the test was a comprehensive one but in fact it was just checking for lazy eye. So then we have kids at school with vision problems but the schools and the parents thought everything was tickety-boo because the before school check had passed the kid.Now this is not the tests fault. This is from the old once over lightly, Iain Lees Galloway school of incompetence. The schools haven’t even read and comprehended what was being done. Honestly the amount of stuff ups we have these days due to laziness, assumption and lack of research is astounding.But this is a minor quibble. The review found that the before school check actually increases iniquity. The rich, intelligent and healthy catch the problems early while the poor, less qualified and unhealthy get worse.Part of the check is a questionnaire filled out by parents. 25 questions relating to emotions, peer relationships, hyperactivity, socialisation and development goals. Better off parents answer diligently and honestly while parents from the bottom end of the rung either hide the truths or because of their own background fail to recognise unsociable or destructive behaviour.Apparently a lot of the worse off parents don’t like the questionnaire because they view it as labelling. And yes it is but the way to process that is to rename it identifying and then get on with making things better for your kids.Well off parents know that labels can be shaken off and changed. Worse off parents think a label is forever.The upshot is the kids of the better off get prompt attention early while the less privileged kids get nothing. Generation by generation getting worse.It’s always deeply depressing when you hear of programmes designed to help that are being spurned because of either parental bloody mindedness or disinterest.One final point though. The Welcome to School study Welcome to School research showed the challenge facing low decile schools was bigger than suspected.Many children were starting at a language development age of 3-4 years. More than 30 per cent had a language proficiency in the bottom 2.5 per cent of the population.That’s not good. We knew it was bad. Now we know it’s worse than that.

Hello everyone! Today, it is my pleasure to bring you Sue Szachowicz, a retired principal of Brockton High School and now a Senior Fellow for the International Center for Leadership in Education, to close out our 3 part episode on how to change a failing school. She chronicled the turn-around of Brockton High in her book Transforming Brockton High: High Standards, High Expectations, No Excuses,and this week she is on the show to discuss exactly how she, and her team, did it. I can’t say enough positive things about this episode, as well as part 2 and part 1. Sue is a no nonsense educator. Excuses are cheap, and effort is king. It isn’t enough to want to change a school, you have to believe there is no other option. Don’t miss this one. Share and enjoy! Don’t forget to subscribe and review the show on iTunes!
What if I told you about something revolutionary? Something so BIG, that it could literally transform your students and your school? Would you be interested, or doubtful? What if I said it was the most high-tech, costly product? ...but what if it wasn't? What if it was free? What if it wasn't technology? What if you don't need to visit costly seminars to learn it? In part two with Sue Szachowicz, we continue our talk about how she, and her team, saved their failing school with the power of their literacy initiative. We discuss her doubts about the process, criticisms she's faced about her approach being "cookie-cutter," as well as how she used basic skills, focus, and team work to accomplish a seemingly impossible task. I believe this series with Sue is going to go down as one of the best of the podcast. She's inspiring, honest, and above all, no nonsense about her approach. Got to love it! Enjoy!

Over in bureaucrat-world, 66 percent is a passing grade. That's the kind of magic trick that lets DPI bureaucrats say there are no failing school districts in Wisconsin. In fact, all schools get at least one gold star even if they're failing to meet expectations.

When a school shuts down, students lose more than a place of learning; they lose friends, mentors and a community. This is an experience that disproportionately affects black students in the U.S. Shereen Marisol Meraji looks at what it's like when a predominantly black suburb outside Pittsburgh loses its only public high school.

Set at an urban public school on the brink of closure for the usual reasons — poor test scores and low graduation rates — playwright Ike Holter's Exit Strategy is an indictment of the state of public education but not a polemic. Much of the play takes place in a teacher's lounge, where faculty discuss their previous stints failing schools. When one enterprising student hacks into school's website, creating a Kickstarter campaign for last-ditch fund-raising, several teachers are inspired to act. Despite the serious subject matter, "the play is quite funny," says New York Times theater critic, Charles Isherwood. "The characters are wisecracking their way through this crisis in their careers."
