Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this episode Dr. Shaw touches on a topic that has come up before in both her Parenting Guide (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WJRX7JF) and on these podcasts, and the question is... when a child's behavior equals need, how do you balance that with healthy boundaries and consistency. The key for Dr. Shaw is front-loading and having the ability to discern the difference between pure misbehavior and behavior that earnestly stems from a need. She talks about how to recognize and understand that difference AND how to react in that situation. She also talks briefly about the impact of social and emotional role play. Dr. Shaw has a series of children's picture books that tell stories about feelings, emotions, life events and life lessons, but she also created dolls based on the characters in the book so that children can learn from action as well as the words on a page. https://learnwithmeremotely.com/shop/
