Yeah. Uh I'm I'm gonna layer in another set of data that that just goes with this. Um The US surgeon general has declared a state of emergency in youth mental health. We're seeing an epidemic of loneliness which has previously been reserved for the elderly in the US. And so knowing that our kids are lonely, of course, of course, is kind of the only answer that we would see bullying, of course, that we would see fighting. Um We want to lead towards, you know, resolve, like you said, in the beginning, we don't want these things to be happening. But we have to look at the data. Um One in four youth in America have clinical levels of depression. Um mental health and use has doubled since the pandemic cyberbullying uh has gone up 70% since the pandemic started. So we have to look at what is our data telling us about what the Children need. Um And so the answer is connection but connection is skills taught. Um It has to be taught and it has to be practiced and I know that schools are uh struggling for time and I know that instructional minutes are all counted. And Erica and I have been there too. But if we don't spend the time up front, we spend it forever chasing the problematic ramifications of not teaching Children the skills for connection. Um And I think to even back that up a little further of investing in our teachers, we have incredible staff at our schools, but we cannot deny our own humanity. All of us come with our lived experiences are things that contribute to how we see things, how we interpret, how we make meaning our assumptions that we bring to the interactions. And so I think really focusing on teacher training, that empowers training our teachers about trauma informed responses.
