Every now and then, host Heather Bernt-Santy and the other nerds in the TECN group chat hit on hot issues that we wish early childhood folks didn’t have to worry about. We decided to do a few episodes on these topics, calling it the Free the Teachers! series.
In this episode, we talk about how stressful tightly controlled daily schedules are for adults and for children, and discuss some alternatives.
