Isn’t it an amazing feeling when the kids get so into it? And when they come around? Congratulations! Enjoy each and every step to this process.
Thank you Dana! One thing that has happened is, I feel like I can commit to the school emotionally now, since I have found something that will work. The mutual trust-building gives me a sense of place attachment. That feels good.
I’m so glad I’ve found this PLC!
We’re glad we found you! The truth is – and I was just talking w Tina about this yesterday – that the essential craft of NT is still not grasped by many people and this site is the only place – aside from the last two books we’ve written – where we can keep the vision honest. It’s amazing how ideas can be spun into new ones so fast, but the small size of our group remains (for a total of 14 years now if you count both incarnations of this website) keeps things honest.
When you and Dana and Greg and the others keep to the NT game plan/Invisibles, etc., we win. This NT work is losing its shape already on the internet (the public denigration of it is of no help), so at least we continue to be safe from that here. I am excited to know that the inevitable spinning of ideas around something new won’t happen here. The fact is, this is a craft. We just can’t start “talking to our kids” without learning the craft of it.
How many teachers can say what Julia said above, and what is the price (of not being able to say it and mean it) in stress? –
