HERE is the TRUTH about our kids | Rabbi Shais Taub at Kesher Nafshi

In this keynote address at the Kesher Nafshi shabbaton, Rabbi Shais Taub challenges the premise of "crisis chinuch" and argues that parents need to tap into not only the unconditional love but "unconditional pride" in every child. Rabbi Taub also discusses the importance of vulnerability, honesty, and authenticity in our families and community.

I'm almost 50, a fellow dictionary reader, and this is making me cry. This is still my daily experience, and little me deserved much more understanding. The last 45 years could have been so much easier if I had had proper support. I'm hopeful for the children growing up that parents today can have a better understanding and help them adapt in healthier ways. Thank you so much for your passionate advocacy!

All we can hope is that the next generation will receive more understanding than was available for us. (btw I forgot that I mentioned reading the dictionary in that talk. every once in a while I share a new personal detail in a talk.)

I can relate. I’m fatigued every single day even when I seemingly do very little.
I am also an introvert and exhausted by other people and communication.
I can hear the AC turn on, the fridge buzz, the weird sound the tv makes when it’s on, even my jaw muscles clinch, etc.
I notice details no one else seems to see. Sometimes, it feels like I’m Sherlock Holmes. I tend to lack the social understanding and social skills like him, as well.
I keep digging to find myself, because it’s been hidden by trauma, masking, etc.
I was taught and learned relationships were always conditional and about what I could give or get. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have started to figure out this is not the case at all. Im beginning to unlearn these toxic ideas.
Your lecture brings so much clarity to the these ideas and the things I’m working through.

[@AmatiinBC]

I can hear all those things too. I csn tell if the tv is on before i even see the screen.

[@Alwaysbbesimcha]

Just a small token of appreciation. I find your talks so validating and healing and I'm so appreciative of the work you do, even if my own parents are not yet interested in changing their behavior. Listening to you gives me hope that there is someone out there looking out for the likes of me.

[@SoulWords]

Thank you so much! We need to keep talking about these things and there will be a change! It’s happening already! Thank you!

These are the most important words I've heard in a long time. I teach Kids who have special needs. I realize recently that am also what you called, "neuro divergent", which is why I relate so well to my students. My parents, children and grandchildren are all unique in this way. It's a Jewish thing. Now it all makes sense! Thank you Rabbi Taub.

[@rhondasmith7413]

It’s not JUST a Jewish thing.

[@seanhogan5784]

This describes my childhood precisely in every way how my parents were not and how I was. Sadly, this is 20 years too late and cannot undo what has been done. As normal with religion, constructive criticism is mocked when you are a narcissist and attend a religious institution or a truth teller child (like myself) was not able to articulate instantly the problems they have and so like what was stated here...destruction comes from the family. The greatest danger lies with the family and religion, not so much the world.

[@shoshanahahn8331]

Wow. Beautiful vulnerability. It's changed my way of thinking about my neuro divergent husband and definitely reinforced my chinuch system for my kids. This is so healing and empowering and compassionate. Thank you for using such right words, that capture the truth, thank you for your authenticity, thank you for keeping it real. It's refreshing ❤❤
It's about time 🎉

[@blimikornbluh7622]

Truth. Truth. Truth. Thank you rabbi taub for sharing this truth loudly and bringing so much light and healing to the world!

[@tap4insight]

Wonderful talk!! ❤ In our home we say; affirm feelings when you can’t affirm behavior. Affirming sets the stage for trust and safety.

[@akai.christo]

The story of my life... Oh Mama mia!! BH He guided me to healing!!
