このコンテンツについて
What if school refusal isn’t about being difficult — but about being overwhelmed?
In this short but powerful episode, Shantelle Poynter — Nurse, neurodivergent parent, and chaos coordinator — invites you into the raw reality of parenting through school refusal.
She explores the emotional weight of mornings that start without them, and why what looks like defiance is often deep distress. This isn’t a behaviour issue — it’s a nervous system response, and it calls for presence over pressure, connection over compliance.
From personal experience to practical reframes, this episode offers validation, not advice, and a reminder that you’re not alone. Whether you’re supporting a child, or carrying your own inner child’s school scars — this is for you.
🎧 Tune in for:
A reframe on what school refusal is
Why capacity matters more than compliance
A reminder that shame has no place in parenting
Support, solidarity, and a whole lot of compassion
