INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
What if the behavior we're so busy trying to fix is actually the most useful thing a child ever tells us?
In this episode, Dr. Ross Greene and Tracey Campbell take on the B word — behavior — and the data schools build around it. From a corridor conversation that changed the course of a "ringleader's" life to a behavior modifier who noticed the kids he was treating had well-behaved siblings at home, they expose how counting infractions, referrals, and demerits can miss the child entirely.
But this isn't a story about throwing out the data. It's about asking better questions of it — treating concerning behavior as a fever rather than a verdict, getting out in front of problems instead of reacting in the heat of the moment, and solving those problems with kids rather than doing things to them. Because behavior is situational, not identity, and what happened then doesn't have to dictate what happens now.
If you've ever watched a thick file follow a child from classroom to classroom, this conversation will make you rethink how behavior data becomes biography — and what it would take to give every kid more than a single story.
