  1. Where’s the Manual? Rule making and breaking Rewards

  2. Session outcomes • Discuss what we mean by childhood • Unpick the teenage years – what is going on? • Investigate rules and evaluate our own • Consider how rules should be made… and broken • Learn together and share

  3. What is a childhood?

  4. Did you know there was no such thing as teenagers until 1938! • In the first part of the twentieth century, we made a startling discovery. There were teenagers among us! Until then, we had thought of people in just two stages: children and adults. And while childhood might have its tender moments, the goal of the child was to grow up as promptly as possible in order to enjoy the opportunities and shoulder the responsibilities of an adult. The girl became the woman, the boy became the man. It was as simple and significant as that.

  5. Let’s get sociological • What norms and values did your parents teach you? • What norms and values do you try and teach your children? • What are the differences between and your parents? What can we learn from this? • Norms – the behaviour that we expect to see in people (children and adults) • Values – the beliefs that we have about how people should behave

  6. Behaviours Start of childhood End of childhood Rules

  7. You have reflected on your norms and values • You thought about what childhood means • You have thought about how we change during our childhood and how this impacts on the rules • Now write down (one per post-it) the rules that are most important to you – no more than 5

  8. Apgar Test • In 1952 Dr Virginia Apgar invented the Apgar score for evaluating the health of new born babies • It was a simple test of babies’ movement, breathing and responses • A score was given out of 10. • In the event of low scores doctors knew that intervention was required • Infant mortality rates were slashed as a result of this simple test

  9. Your Apgar Test • What is your simple checklist for dealing with incidents of rule-breaking • Think of a recent incident – what score would you give yourself on the Apgar Scale (out of 10)

  10. Summing up • What will you do with what you learned tonight?
