As a parent it’s difficult for me to watch young athletes lose their love a play because adults can’t regulate their adult emotions. 🏀

I wish every youth sports coach had to take a class in childhood development, I wish every sports youth coach knew that when they shame & yell in public, their players brains process it as a threat & to protect, and stressed brains don’t perform. ⚾️ (1/2)

@dwyer_mrs @PC_Matt_ @Mouthwashtalks1 @MrWildstyle @pc_matt @JohnPSchmitz1 @House97Schmitz Well that’s not exactly it….however I don’t want to re-live it because it actually involved repeated attempts to disclose my children’s school. Nothing about it was fun, funny or necessary.

Today marks my first day as a Tenured @BUWheelock Professor and the Inaugural Faculty Director of @BUNewburyCenter at @BU_Tweets. I will not let SCOTUS steal my joy. Rather, I am fueled to do the work even more. Let us get started. #FirstGen #ThePrivilegedPoor #WhenCampusClosed

@IUImpact @IndianaUniv One of the most rewarding parts for me is watching my student researchers disseminate our work. They recently presented our work with teens in recovery at the @AOTAInc Annual Conference.

Six of our first year students did their Fieldwork 1B experience at Camp Mariposa Aaron's Place a few weeks ago. The students planned and implemented group interventions for the pediatric population, allowing for hands-on experience with interventions in their first year.🦋

@House97Schmitz @LawrMcCormack @JakeinCarmel @nickroberts317 @irvineforcarmel @jeremyeltz @theharrisonpro2 @Mouthwashtalks1 I was taught when you are wrong, you admit it and you apologize. Thank you for accepting my apology.

This is also what I teach my children, and those who know me know how much my children mean to me.
