Teaching kids empathy alongside critical thinking

 TEACHING CHILDREN EMPATHY AND CRITICAL THINKING WHILE STRENGTHENING IDENTITY AND RESPECT FOR PARENTS Teaching children empathy alongside critical thinking while strengthening their identity and respect for parents requires an integrated, developmentally sensitive approach based on social and developmental psychology. The aim is to help children understand both themselves and others, including parents, as multidimensional human beings. 1. TEACH PERSPECTIVE-TAKING AS A THINKING SKILL Empathy and critical thinking both depend on seeing the world from another point of view while maintaining independent thought. Activity: Use role play or family storytelling. Ask the child to retell a recent disagreement from your perspective. Follow with questions like "why do you think I felt that way?" or "what might I have been afraid of or hoping for?" This strengthens intellectual empathy—the capacity to analyze emotions and motives without blind agreement. Tip: Invite "why...

After the war-legacy

Image
This is a temporary placement- my Medium account has disappeared since posting this there this morning After every war, the fighting doesn’t end when the soldiers come home. It moves into the kitchen, the nursery, the silence between people who once loved each other.  My father came back from World War II decorated by the King, later a naval commander for Canada. To the world, he was a hero. To his family, he was a man trying to live with the noise still in his head. He certainly had what we now call PTSD, though back then it was just “bad temper,” “discipline,” or “ungratefulness.” He hit the older brothers, quite badly assaulting them. He pushed my mum downstairs when pregnant and cut her.   No one used the word trauma. They just carried it. He felt ambiguous about her- she was nice- but pretty dumb (but fun at times) and poorly educated- he was quite the scholar with many associates- she was lost and isolated in a foreign country- a woman born in North London- with 4 k...

ASSUMPTIONS- the worst enemy of every profession

Image
  Picture by Elimende Inagella- Unsplash Assumptions duckie, are the velvet gloves that hide the iron fists of error. We make them quickly, often with the best intentions, and they lead us straight into the lion’s mouth. Let me walk you through a few examples. There was a case in medicine where a woman came in with chest pain. The doctor assumed it was anxiety—she was young, female, not the “typical” heart attack candidate. They didn’t run the tests. She died. That assumption, that profile, cost her everything. In law enforcement, we’ve seen it time and again. A man pulled over because he “looked suspicious.” No crime, no evidence, just a gut feeling and a profile. He was arrested, humiliated, and later released. But the damage was done. His dignity, his trust in the system—shattered. Recruitment is another battlefield. A CV with a foreign-sounding name gets tossed aside. The candidate might have been brilliant, but the recruiter assumed they wouldn’t “fit.” No interview, no chance...

Measles- who suffers most?

 A 2024 case report describes a ten-month-old female who developed viremia, meningoencephalitis, and multi-organ failure after receiving the live-attenuated measles vaccine.  Whole-genome sequencing revealed a homozygous loss-of-function mutation in IFNAR2, abolishing type-I interferon signaling and leaving the child vulnerable to severe viral disease.  The authors note that defects in IFNAR2 define immunodeficiency-45 and that carriers of such mutations are at high risk for life-threatening complications from either natural measles infection or the live vaccine itself . Poland and co-workers have repeatedly shown that common single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the measles virus receptors CD46 and SLAM, as well as in TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, RIG-I, and multiple HLA class I and II loci, significantly modulate cytokine release, antibody production, and cellular immunity after measles exposure or vaccination. Individuals carrying the “low-response” alleles mount weaker antiviral res...

Lenny Henry- ww2 ring bells? TRAITOR?

 Lenny Henry’s Betrayal of Britain By Liz Lucy Robillard The Man Who Once United Us Sir Lenny Henry was once the face of Britain’s better self — talent over privilege, laughter over division. A boy from Dudley who broke barriers through wit, timing, and graft. He represented the proof that this country, for all its flaws, still rewarded merit. Millions saw themselves in his rise: the Britain where race mattered less than effort. Now, after a lifetime of success, he is calling for reparations from the nation that gave him everything. That is not courage; it is betrayal disguised as conscience. Britain’s Record Deserves Respect Britain did not invent slavery, but it did lead the world in abolishing it. Parliament outlawed the trade in 1807, and the Empire abolished slavery itself in 1833. British ships hunted slavers for decades at enormous cost. Tens of thousands of sailors fought and died intercepting slave vessels. Our ancestors paid in blood and treasure to end a global evil. No ...

Reform's Deportation Policy - 10's of Billions to UK Taxpayers?

REFORM and Deportation- The costs Liz Lucy Robillard The Real Legal Limits of the “Restore Britain” Deportation Plan A new paper by Restore Britain calls for mass deportations of everyone living in the UK without legal status. It sounds decisive and patriotic, but the plan breaks far more laws than it fixes — and would very likely collapse in the courts before the first charter flight took off. This post unpacks what’s lawful, what isn’t, and who would actually make or lose money if any of it went ahead. 1. What They Want The Restore Britain report demands: Leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR); Repealing the Human Rights Act 1998; Repealing the Equality Act 2010; Introducing a “Great Clarification Act” letting Parliament override judges; And deporting up to two million people within three years. 2. What the Law Actually Allows Most of those measures are unlawful under existing UK and international law. Here’s why. A. Rule of Law and Separation of Powers Courts, not mi...
