Many children spend their day holding it together — smiling, complying, masking distress to stay ‘okay’. What looks calm can be the effort of survival.

When the mask slips at home, it’s not manipulation — it’s release. It’s safety.
Understanding the difference changes everything.

Explore Masking: The Toolkit for Parents & Educators — your guide to recognising the signs, reducing the strain, and helping a child feel safe enough to be real. Link in comments or via Linktree Shop in Bio.

Fight, flight, freeze, fawn aren’t choices, they’re survival responses.
We don't consciously choose how we respond.
These instincts are automatic survival responses wired into our brains. Understanding this can help us be kinder to ourselves when coping with trauma.

Let’s talk about stimming.

You may notice a child flap their hands when excited, tap their pencils repeatedly, hum softly, rock back and forth, or pick at their fingers. These movements are known as self-stimulatory behaviours — or ‘stimming’.

Stimming is not attention-seeking.
It’s not misbehaviour.
And it’s certainly not something to be 'trained out'.

Stimming is a regulation tool.
For many neurodivergent young people, it helps calm the nervous system, release built-up energy, manage sensory overwhelm, or express joy.

When we understand stimming as communication and regulation, our response changes.
Instead of “stop that”, we move towards curiosity, support, and providing safe forms of sensory expression.

Save this and share with anyone who supports a young person.
