Thank you for posting this amazing lecture. Stuart Shanker is amazing. Not only does he have the needed knowledge to help kids (and adults) but he’s also a skilled teacher. I’m always in flow while listening to him. I could listen to him for hours.

I started singing Amazing Grace (slow version) to my son and he too starts trying to sing and then starts to cry until i soothe him when he stops. I repeat, the singing and then he repeats the imitating and then crying...

This is brilliant. Is there a transcript for it? I would love to hear the responses the audience members give

Wonderful info. Would love even more if subtitles in English could be added. Need it specially for names of researchers.

Thank you Roots of Empathy for posting this! I just got his book! Such a mind blowing talk!

[pratishabhatt]

Please activate subtitles. Sometimes, the names of authors that Stuart mentions are difficult to find, specific words, etc.Don’t want to miss a word of what he says.

Is that why some kids spit a lot when throwing tantrums or having meltdowns? Releasing cortisol?
And why stresses cause kids to wet their beds?

@56:00 "video games are stressor"

Do you think why we have a generation of kids who are always tense has a correlation that we are in a generation that doesn't know how to submit? This is a generation where kids aren't aware or live by the life of a proper pecking order. Kids are the centre of their world and there is no learning of how to submit to a higher power (teacher/parent/principal). This is To submit is to put on the break for them! Kids are kids and they need help with systems that are not yet developed. We have a world filled with parents who have actually surrendered their leadership role to their children. THis is damaging for the child and the parent!
thank you for posting. so interesting!
