Join hosts Doctor Xand van Tulleken and Dr Rochelle Burgess for Season 4, Episode 3 of Public Health Disrupted. "It's not our children who are disordered, it's the environment in which we're expecting them to operate." In this month's episode, our experts explore the pressing issue of children's mental health in the UK. With one in five young individuals facing probable mental health disorders, the urgency for effective support systems is undeniable. Joining the conversation are Kate Silverton, renowned broadcaster turned qualified child therapist, and Professor Nicola Walshe, a proponent of climate change and sustainability education. Together, they dissect the challenges faced by schools and parents in supporting children's mental health and the innovative ways to foster well-being through nature and the arts. Kate Silverton shares her insights on the variability of mental health support in schools and the critical need for standardised, professionally trained mental health professionals on-site. She emphasises the importance of understanding the neuroscience behind children's behaviour and offers a sneak peak of some of the practical, science-backed strategies found in her latest book, ‘There's still no such thing as naughty: parenting for the primary years'. Professor Nicola Walshe discusses her work with the UCL Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Education, highlighting the transformative power of combining arts with nature to improve children's mental and emotional well-being. She presents compelling evidence from the Eco-Capabilities project, illustrating how such practices not only benefit the students but also reinvigorate teachers' passion for their profession.

How can you support your child's healthy brain development? How can you strengthen your connection with your children? And have you already messed them up too badly to make a change? These are all questions broadcaster-turned-child therapist Kate Silverton answers in her new book, There's Still No Such Thing As Naughty. Kate joined Fearne on the podcast earlier this week to discuss how to help your child regulate their emotions, how screens affect development, neurodivergence, and more. Now, you can listen to an exclusive extract from Kate's new book, all about separation anxiety. Listen to Kate's Happy Place episode here. There's Still No Such Thing As Naughty is out on March 28th. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Did you learn to regulate your emotions as a child? Broadcaster turned child therapist Kate Silverton says our ability to regulate our emotions has been found to be the best indicator of future happiness. In this chat with Fearne, Kate definitively explains why it's never too late to change your relationship with your kids regardless of how much you think you've already messed up. Kate talks through why it's not about changing our children, it's about changing their environment. Similarly, it's not that you're bad at parenting, it's that you're being expected to parent while under often more stress and with less community support. Fearne and Kate also chat about why all of these conversations are relevant even if you're not a parent, because all these things – soothing anxiety, acknowledging emotions, cultivating resilience – also relate to our relationships with our own parents, and ourselves... Plus, Kate gives her take on how best to help children with neurodiversity, and how screens are really affecting our brains. Kate's book, There's Still No Such Thing As Naughty, is out on the March 28th. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alistair Bryce Clegg and Kate Silverton return for the final episode to round up the topic of understanding children's behaviour.  Kate and Alistair touch on concepts discussed so far, stressing the need to understand the science behind behaviour, advocating for viewing children through the lens of neuroscience to promote empathetic responses.   The importance of providing a secure and safe environment for children to develop and learn is a central theme, with an emphasis on fostering empathy, setting simple boundaries, and integrating play and movement into early education.   The discussion encourages a shift from traditional disciplinary approaches towards a more understanding and science-informed method of supporting children's mental health and well-being.

She touches on the challenges modern parents face in a more isolated context, contrasting it with the traditional village-like support systems.   The conversation touches on the need for a collective approach, where parents, educators, and practitioners create a supportive community for children, promoting a sense of safety and ease during transitions. 

Alistair Bryce-Clegg is joined once again by Kate Silverton, a leading broadcaster, child psychologist, and author. In this episode, Kate and Alistair delve into understanding and managing children's emotional responses in early years.   Kate discusses how practitioners can recognise early signs of emotional reactions in children and offer strategies to guide them through handling strong emotions. Drawing on personal experiences, Kate emphasises the importance of comprehending the neuroscience behind stress responses and how adults can aid children in regulating these emotions.   Kate also introduces the concept of SAS (Say what you see, Acknowledge, Soothe) parenting, highlighting the significance of acknowledging and validating children's emotions to foster resilience and effective emotional management.

Driven by her passion for the well-being of children, beloved BBC broadcaster, Kate Silverton, has written a book called, ‘There's no such thing as naughty'. The idea of ‘naughty children' has existed for at least 400 years, but Kate says that for children aged 0 - 5 calling a child ‘naughty' is missing the mark. In this episode Kate helps us answer the questions:  If our children aren't naughty, then what are they?  How can I understand what my child's brain? What do I do when my child's emotions take over? Am I being too permissive if I don't punish my child? Why is it important to understand why we parent the way we do? In the last 25 years Kate has become one of the BBC's leading, and most loved, broadcasters and she has an extraordinary passion for children and their emotional wellbeing.

She is currently training to become a children’s counsellor and, in due course, will go on to qualify as a full child and adult psychotherapist. In this episode we discuss Kate’s mission to expose injustices around the world. Whether it’s reporting on the dire conditions in war-torn countries, wildlife trafficking, or or most recently, in the area of mental health. Ask: Have faith in yourself, do not let fear override what your heart is telling you, dream big and remember hard work works. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Richard Coles and Kate Silverton are joined by Gabby Logan who has covered most of the major sporting events in football, rugby and athletics and been a trailblazer for women in sport. Her own sporting credentials are impeccable : she’s the daughter of professional footballer and manager Terry Yorath, married to rugby international Kenny Logan and was also an international competitor in rhythmic gymnastics. Carl Austin-Behan left a promising career in the RAF in the late 90s after his military superiors discovered he was gay. Since then he started his own business, won the Mr Gay UK contest and became the youngest person to ever hold the office of Lord Mayor of Manchester. Comedian and actress Natasha Demetriou is well known for her role as a Nadja, an ancient vampire trying to cope with life in modern day New York in the comedy What We Do In The Shadows. However her latest project lets her out into the daylight, as she presents the Big Flower Fight, a surreal competition for avant-garde florists who make huge sculptures from flowers. Ross Edgley is a man who likes a challenge, the more extreme the better. He discusses why he chose to be the first person to swim around the coastline of Britain and how mental resilience is a quality that can be learnt. And writer Dame Marina Warner shares her Inheritance Tracks: Si mi chiamo Mimi from La Boheme by Giacomo Puccini and Sonata No. 3 in A major, op. 69 by Ludwig van Beethoven. Producer: Steven Williams Editor: Eleanor Garland

This week Richard Coles and Kate Silverton are joined by Ricky Wilson, the lead singer of Kaiser Chiefs. The band’s hits include I Predict A Riot and Ruby and last year they released their seventh album, Duck. Ricky was a judge on The Voice and now presents the Pop Detectives podcast with Tony Blackburn. Jack Monroe was an unemployed single parent living in poverty when she started a blog called A Girl Called Jack which described cooking nutritious meals for her family on a tiny budget. She is now a well-known cookery writer and campaigner, whose ability to knock up delicious food with limited ingredients has come into its own during the lockdown. Sandra Palmer dreamed of being a fashion designer as a child. Her father Fritz had been a tailor in Jamaica before moving to Birmingham where he worked as a lorry driver. He would sew the dancing costumes Sandra designed as child and after Fritz died in 1999, Sandra decided to keep his legacy alive. Richard Keenan was told that he was adopted when he was nine. After training as both a priest and a police offer, he waited until he was 40 to find his birth parents. Using his police skills to track them down, Richard discovered his birth family and the surprising story of his biological parents’ relationship. And Inheritance Tracks this week from playwright Mark Ravenhill. Producer: Laura Northedge Editor: Eleanor Garland

This week Annabel and Emilie are dazzled by Kate Silverton. One of our most popular and versatile journalists, this woman is BRAVE. So versatile that she has been a war reporter, competed in 2018’s Strictly Come Dancing and tackled some of the UK’s most perilous rivers by kayak. She’s clearly a maniac. But she also looks inwards and her Panorama about childhood trauma and toxic stress is out later this month. Warning: this podcast made us cry.

Roy Hudd is a national treasure. He's been entertaining, acting and generally having fun on TV, the stage and wireless for many decades. Next month he'll be 81 years old and he's still working. Imelda May grew up in the Liberties, once the toughest slum in Dublin, where she learned the art of song and acquired a noble quiff, which made her the Rockabilly queen of the Dublin scene. Her breakthrough came on Jools Holland's 'Later' (she also supported his band on tour) and was snapped up by the likes of Bono and The Chieftains, who know a proper voice when they hear one. The quiff is no more, to mark a change of emphasis and tone, I guess, and her new album, Life Love Flesh Blood is produced by T Bone Burnett, does what it says on the tin. . New Zealander Stuart Barnes started working as a shepherd when he was just 11. He now spends his time travelling and running a Dog and Duck Show. He talks about his lifelong love of animals, developing his knowledge of animal behaviour and ways to communicate with dogs Hard to get a page from the flimsiest of manifestos between politics and comedy these days, some have said, so it must be a fertile opportunity for Ayesha Hazaroka, who was a special adviser to Labour politicians both in government before reinventing herself as a commentator and a comedian, and a grave disappointment to her mother who still really really wants her to be a doctor. Her new show State of the Nation was obliged to undergo a hurried rewrite after elevenses last Tuesday, when the Prime Minister surprised us all by calling a general election. This weeks Inheritance Tracks comes from humanitarian and ex-hostage Terry Waite And much much more We want to hear from you so EMAIL: saturdaylive@bbc.co.uk TEXT: 84844 TWEET: #bbcsaturdaylive (LEAVE A PHONE NUMBER) The programme is presented by Kate Silverton & the Rev. Richard Coles and the producer is Maire Devine.

Comedian Milton Jones; musician Sam Sweeney; opera impresario Michael Volpe and curator Catherine Howell join Aasmah Mir and Kate Silverton. Milton Jones is a stand-up comedian, known by many as the king of the one-liners. A regular panellist on BBC Two's Mock the Week, he has a penchant for wild hair and colourful shirts and a gentle, self-deprecating wit.

Opera Holland Park's new season opens on June 1st. Six years ago Sam Sweeney, fiddle player with Bellowhead, bought a violin in Oxford. It had all the appearance of a new instrument but the label inside gave the date 1915 and the name Richard S Howard. Sam discovered the violin had been made - but never finished - by a luthier and some-time music hall performer from Leeds called Richard Spencer Howard who died in battle during the First World War. The violin languished unfinished for many years until it was completed in 2007 and placed in the window of an Oxford music shop where it was spotted by Sam. Sam tells the extraordinary story of his fiddle in his show Made in the Great War which tours in June. Catherine Howell is collections manager at the V & A Museum of Childhood. She curated the exhibition, Game Plan: Board Games Rediscovered which traces the history and enduring appeal of board games.
