This episode is from a previously aired Facebook Livestream where we tackled one of the most common concerns of parents and teachers: "Bakit hindi mapaupo ang anak ko sa classroom?"
If your child can’t sit still, seems overly energetic, or struggles with focus during lessons, this episode will help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface. We explore the developmental reasons behind movement, why sitting still is not always realistic for young children, and how we can adjust our expectations and strategies at home and in school.
This episode is packed with insights on:
Sensory needs and the role of movement in early learning
When to be concerned and when it’s developmentally appropriate
Simple strategies for parents and teachers to support focus and regulation

This episode was recorded during a past Facebook Live where Teacher Tina responded to messages from overwhelmed, tired, and honest parents.
We all want to stay calm… but what do you do when your child is screaming in public, refuses to listen, or keeps pushing your buttons? In this episode, we unpack:
Can older children still throw tantrums?
How your child’s brain reacts when dysregulated
What to do when your own anger is rising
Why parenting triggers are often rooted in your own childhood
This isn’t just about strategies—it’s about understanding yourself and your child better, so you can respond with more empathy and less guilt.
