Yes - parents and WhatsApp groups are catching fire about this - mostly misinformation but it is spreading quickly #INZPirED

KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 10:48 PM EDT

Wonder how schools respond when parents contact them about this type of stuff? #INZPirED Read that schools are scrambling to deal with this
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 10:51 PM EDT

True - but when it spills into school and parents ask for responses - is this an added burden to teachers/admin now? #INZPirED

Regarding Blue Whale - It is not an online video game despite what majority of parents think. #INZPirED #Bluewhale #misconception
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 10:55 PM EDT
Other great ways to disseminate information - Teach children to be critical and communicative. Build those relationships of trust. #INZPirED

Agree if a school has a collective response strategy rather than an individual response strategy #INZPirED

#INZpirED. By putting correct message in newsletter,sch Facebook page (info page forPs), Face to face,or ring them

Bluewhale is prevalent on every platform - it is like a chain letter spread through both email and social media. #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 10:59 PM EDT
Some great ways to share a collective response to misinformation. Direct individual queries to a common page/platform #INZPirED

KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 11:01 PM EDT

We do that well in schools - perhaps don’t advertise it well to Ps who rightly get concerned about their wards from time to time #INZPirED

#INZpirED classrooms and relationships are home away from home
In reply to @bakshiaarti
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 11:10 PM EDT

My only concern becomes when parents expect school to take all the responsibility. Actual home becomes another place #INZPirED
In reply to @NigamKriti, @bakshiaarti
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 11:11 PM EDT
Some #INZPirED suggestions - Let parents now the good things too rather than just the bad.

#INZpirED the expectations keep building up..Busy, packed schedule and changing family structure along with catering to needs might be cause

Ps can't escape parental responsibility no matter what the issue is. Satellite parenting can’t be a substitute to real parenting #INZPirED

#INZPirED Personally think schools establish the habits - we often open the door and when parents step in, we try to shut it. #INZPirED

#INZpirED enough to support and help identify..Not to take over
In reply to @bakshiaarti, @KSThakral
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 11:20 PM EDT

I know what you mean - we have busy lives as Ts as well. How do we deal with our kids? In the end it is all about balance #INZPirED
In reply to @bakshiaarti, @NigamKriti
NigamKriti Aug 11 @ 11:22 PM EDT

#INZpirED you've identified correctly.Listening but with half ear..Present but mind and thoughts else where.Makes kids fractious, distracted
In reply to @bakshiaarti, @KSThakral
bakshiaarti Aug 11 @ 11:22 PM EDT

R P Ts playing passing d Ss , nah #INZpirED; then where do v all miss cues; helping as many as v can in as little a time; what s enough??
bakshiaarti Aug 11 @ 11:25 PM EDT

Do v have time for self care? Or r v fretting over trying to help another Ss #INZpirED, personal feelings; help self ; help Ss; circle
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 11 @ 11:25 PM EDT

We realise that Ss are individual. We will not get through them all so it is an concerted effort with Ps and others. #INZPirED
