For generations, kids had three worlds:
1. Home
2. School
3. A third place; the park, the field, the neighborhood, the church gym, the rec center.
That third place is where kids learned: • how to solve problems without an adult
• how to read emotions and faces
• how to handle conflict
• how to lose
• how to make friends
• how to negotiate and compromise
• how to sit with frustration
• how to just be a kid
But today?
Most kids' third place is a screen.
A screen doesn’t teach boundaries.
A screen doesn’t teach emotional regulation.
A screen doesn’t teach cooperation or conflict skills.
A screen doesn’t teach patience or self-control.
So all the social and emotional skills kids used to practice before they walked into school…
they have to learn inside school now.
And that’s why:
behavior feels different
attention feels different
emotions feel bigger
classroom management is tougher.
This isn’t a “kids these days” problem.
It’s a cultural shift.
When the third place disappears, childhood changes.
And schools end up carrying what the community used to teach.
Until kids get their third place back, we’re going to keep seeing the fallout

@stenhouse85 @izzyslovenian Look what happened when we got behind Whittaker - top scorer now!

@izzyslovenian Do people think giving him stick is going to help????? Strikers thrive off confidence, get behind the lad, he gives everything for the shirt!!

@TrollFootball Wouldn’t happen here! Love the orange ball though!

@TeesTerrace Thought he played really well when he came on as the third central defender. Looked more assured than at left back.

#OTD in 2010: Barry Robson scored what remains the Riverside’s quickest goal. 24 seconds were all it took him to give us the lead in victory against Reading 🔴⚪️

Such a special day with HRH The Princess of Wales @KensingtonRoyal as she welcomed our Squirrels and Chief Scout, @DwayneFields to spend time in nature as part of the State Visit. Thank you to all who supported this, especially our Joint President, young people and volunteers.

According to Sit Martyn Oliver 'Ofsted exists to keep children safe and improve their lives' NO Sir Martyn. School's exist to keep children safe and improve their lives. Ofsted continues to be the biggest barrier in enabling them to do this. New report card is a joke
Edmund Barnett-Ward@Edmund_B_W
So then, Ofsted unveils its “new” inspection framework today. Two and a half years after Ruth Perry’s death, and what is the result? A monumental failure of leadership from successive Secretaries of State, the DfE and Ofsted. The old framework… with a new coat of paint…

@EmmaVardyTV @BBCBreakfast Getting to actually speak to someone is my crime. Half the time I’m confused trying to choose from the automated menu. Then when I’ve pressed my way through I end up with….the end of the call because somewhere down the line I’ve pressed the wrong choice.
