I'm not sure of the exact dynamics between you and your child, but is there a possibility that he is wanting a more direct connection with you? Perhaps sitting in your lap? Singing and rocking, playing finger games together? Or you can invite your child to do large motor movements to get the wiggles out before settling down to more quiet activities with you.

I felt same with other vidios that's why I came to comments first.im a beginner so pleased to hear that now I can watch learn and save thank you 🇬🇧

So interesting. I am quite a scatterbrain, very friendly and bubbly. But am totally drained by social events and feel my body so much I often feel in pain. I resonate very deeply with both. When people make such black and white statements (like you can’t be heavily both sanguine and melancholic) I’m always wary. The spectrum of human experience is so vast. We are what we are!

What a mean spirited remark. His accent isn’t even particularly strong.

@@EvanDempsey . Now the Indians worship christ as the great spirit as a hodgepodge religion

@@EvanDempsey truth can be offensive to some. It doesn't bother you at all?

👎 bad form. I understand both of them perfectly well and I'm from the Midwest.

@@drakonidesthevigilant5155 it's not bad form, it's the truth. Bad form would be a racial slur. I actually wanted to hear the lecture, but couldn't understand the man, evidently you have more patience for that sort of thing. Want to do a lecture in my language, be flawless or lose my attention. It's disrespect - I would have done better with subtitles. I give no quarter for half hearted attempts. Thirty years ago he would have been severely reprimanded or laughed out of the hall, even ignored. As in other countries - since when is America so accepting of such things. If you don't tell them they don't choose eloquence. If they don't choose eloquence something is lost in translation or heard wrong, and that's how alot of outsourcing tends to get all balled up. There's enough trouble with the system as it is - don't go easy on them, I'm not trying to read his mind or anticipate his thoughts or really really overlisten to accommodate him, why should I. My family abandoned all they had to rise up in this country as in any other country it's even worse, the criteria to be accepted by colleges. That's why diction coaches exist. If I moved to or learned French it would be perfect out of respect as an example, especially if it's about study and intellectual communication.🤺

Thanks so much Claire. Its nice to talk to such good story tellers, I can pretty much sit back and enjoy 😊

Often finding things difficult in our lives is an indication we have something to gain from putting effort into understanding it.

No there isn’t. There should be though, she is such a legend! Glad you found it :)

Hey Leo, I’ve never been asked this before! Thanks for getting in touch. The main thing about Waldorf education, especially for teens, is that it should be preparing you for real life, not just the academic stuff, the practical skills as well. The intent of a Waldorf education is that you are able to become the best you you can be. We want students to be happy, and free human beings, comfortable in their individuality. When you leave hopefully you feel you have the skills and the self confidence to do what ever you have come to the earth to do. Incorporating an aesthetic or artistic aspect to all your project and subjects will be a big focus too. So making sure the things you create or assignments you do are beautiful. The vibe behind the ‘traditional’ Waldorf design and architecture is that it’s influenced by shapes and forms you find in the natural world. Look up anthroposophical architecture, and anthroposophical sculpture (not that you need to be an anthroposophist, but that will help you find the style I think you are talking about)There’s a whole philosophy behind it, but depending on you and where you are from, you can alter it all to suit who you are. In saying all that, your teachers and school will have its own vibe, because Waldorf education should reflect the students who go there. Ultimately enjoy the experience and don’t worry about being a newbie, more people join later than you would think. The teachers and students will be super welcoming and help you learn the ropes pretty quick. Good luck! Let me know if you have any more questions
