We talk 31 00:01:50,893 --> 00:01:52,213 Speaker 3: a lot about AI on the show. 32 00:01:52,333 --> 00:01:52,973 Speaker 2: You certainly do. 33 00:01:53,173 --> 00:01:55,413 Speaker 3: I love it. It's a massive thing, as we all 34 00:01:55,453 --> 00:01:57,573 Speaker 3: know in the world right now. So and as you 35 00:01:57,613 --> 00:01:59,413 Speaker 3: also know, Matt, I haven't mentioned on the show, but 36 00:01:59,493 --> 00:02:01,053 Speaker 3: I had a bit of a fall the other day. 37 00:02:01,053 --> 00:02:04,172 Speaker 3: A bit of a fall, did you and enrolled my ankle. 38 00:02:04,333 --> 00:02:05,973 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's all my groaning. 39 00:02:06,093 --> 00:02:06,293 Speaker 1: You know. 40 00:02:06,373 --> 00:02:09,093 Speaker 3: I've been sitting here complaining and just making weird noises 41 00:02:09,133 --> 00:02:11,013 Speaker 3: because I've badly injured my ankle. 42 00:02:11,093 --> 00:02:11,773 Speaker 2: Yeah that's right. 43 00:02:11,853 --> 00:02:14,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, but I went to the physio this 44 00:02:15,053 --> 00:02:19,053 Speaker 3: morning and what I found was interesting. Great guy sat 45 00:02:19,093 --> 00:02:20,852 Speaker 3: down and then the first thing he said was do 46 00:02:20,893 --> 00:02:23,972 Speaker 3: you mind if I use AI to record my notes? 47 00:02:24,373 --> 00:02:27,333 Speaker 3: And I'm like, absolutely, go for gold, and I freaking 48 00:02:27,413 --> 00:02:30,173 Speaker 3: loved it because as he was going through testing the ankle, 49 00:02:30,252 --> 00:02:32,133 Speaker 3: doing all the bits of stuff and told me what 50 00:02:32,173 --> 00:02:34,252 Speaker 3: he thought was going on, then he'd say it again 51 00:02:34,293 --> 00:02:38,412 Speaker 3: in a very loud voice so that we AI would 52 00:02:38,453 --> 00:02:40,773 Speaker 3: pick it up. So I kind of got the double dose. 53 00:02:40,853 --> 00:02:43,813 Speaker 3: But I thought, what an ingenious way to use that technology. 54 00:02:44,252 --> 00:02:46,852 Speaker 2: A couple of points on this, did he touch you? 55 00:02:46,933 --> 00:02:47,213 Speaker 4: Yep? 56 00:02:47,373 --> 00:02:49,893 Speaker 2: He did, all right, So he can't be completely replaced 57 00:02:49,893 --> 00:02:51,693 Speaker 2: by AI. No, no, so if he just took the 58 00:02:51,693 --> 00:02:53,573 Speaker 2: message and there's no need for the physio. 59 00:02:53,373 --> 00:02:55,333 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, very point. Yeah, very good point. 60 00:02:55,493 --> 00:02:59,852 Speaker 2: Although I was getting a pedicure the other day, and 61 00:03:00,453 --> 00:03:02,333 Speaker 2: you know I don't often, but my partner said, your 62 00:03:02,373 --> 00:03:04,692 Speaker 2: feet are so gross that I've bought you on good 63 00:03:04,693 --> 00:03:07,733 Speaker 2: cool and the chair was messaging me. Was it nice 64 00:03:07,933 --> 00:03:09,813 Speaker 2: that the chair? You know how these of you know, 65 00:03:09,853 --> 00:03:12,333 Speaker 2: you see the mid airports and stuff. Yeah, but so 66 00:03:12,453 --> 00:03:14,293 Speaker 2: you know you can't you can probably play. You could 67 00:03:14,333 --> 00:03:18,333 Speaker 2: probably place the physia with just a cheer and AI recording. 68 00:03:18,493 --> 00:03:20,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can get a soft fingered robot there to 69 00:03:20,532 --> 00:03:21,053 Speaker 3: do that job. 70 00:03:21,213 --> 00:03:23,133 Speaker 2: Second point is you don't need to put on a 71 00:03:23,133 --> 00:03:27,133 Speaker 2: stupid voice to talk to AI. It's like my dad 72 00:03:27,173 --> 00:03:30,773 Speaker 2: when he's trying to send text messages with his phone. 73 00:03:30,933 --> 00:03:34,813 Speaker 2: He goes text message, so he's talking to you. He goes, oh, 74 00:03:34,933 --> 00:03:43,053 Speaker 2: no, no text message to Matt Heath. That's son, what are 75 00:03:43,093 --> 00:03:46,133 Speaker 2: you doing today? If you don't need to put on 76 00:03:46,133 --> 00:03:47,693 Speaker 2: a voice to talk to it, you can just it's 77 00:03:47,693 --> 00:03:50,853 Speaker 2: actually calibrated to just you know, register your normal voice. 78 00:03:50,933 --> 00:03:54,693 Speaker 2: So true, because he's actually by about fifty times. 79 00:03:54,413 --> 00:03:56,053 Speaker 3: He had to just raise his voice where he thought 80 00:03:56,053 --> 00:03:57,493 Speaker 3: he had to raise his voice a little bit so 81 00:03:57,573 --> 00:03:59,293 Speaker 3: a I would pick up. But there's a good point. 82 00:04:00,053 --> 00:04:07,773 Speaker 2: Diot rolled and cole uncoordinated, very soft hands, hasn't done 83 00:04:07,773 --> 00:04:09,893 Speaker 2: a day's work and his life that kind of thing. 84 00:04:09,933 --> 00:04:11,573 Speaker 3: Were you there? You must have been there. Were you 85 00:04:11,573 --> 00:04:14,613 Speaker 3: in the waiting room? It's like you heard everything, mate, 86 00:04:15,213 --> 00:04:18,093 Speaker 3: Very good. Right on to today's show. After three o'clock, 87 00:04:18,093 --> 00:04:19,573 Speaker 3: I want to talk about an article in The Hero 88 00:04:19,733 --> 00:04:22,733 Speaker 3: It's about midlife crisis. But this is by psychologists and 89 00:04:22,733 --> 00:04:25,893 Speaker 3: author A. Frank Tallis. So his argument is that midlife 90 00:04:25,933 --> 00:04:28,653 Speaker 3: crises are wrongly treated as a joke, when in reality 91 00:04:28,693 --> 00:04:33,093 Speaker 3: they stem from profound psychological challenges tied to aging, mortality, 92 00:04:33,333 --> 00:04:37,333 Speaker 3: loss of purpose, and a youth obsessed culture. It's a 93 00:04:37,333 --> 00:04:39,493 Speaker 3: great it's a great read, and go check it out 94 00:04:39,533 --> 00:04:41,613 Speaker 3: on the Herald. But the big question we've got for 95 00:04:41,613 --> 00:04:44,253 Speaker 3: you is midlife crises actually real. 96 00:04:44,413 --> 00:04:46,773 Speaker 2: I don't think that exists. I think people are always 97 00:04:46,813 --> 00:04:49,653 Speaker 2: having crises, and this is just a way. It's just 98 00:04:49,693 --> 00:04:52,773 Speaker 2: an envy ridden excuse to hassle men who finally have 99 00:04:52,893 --> 00:04:55,213 Speaker 2: enough money to buy the car they always wanted. They 100 00:04:55,213 --> 00:04:56,973 Speaker 2: always wanted to drive that car, they just didn't have 101 00:04:57,013 --> 00:04:59,693 Speaker 2: the money. Yeah, and the kids were still around, so 102 00:04:59,733 --> 00:05:01,213 Speaker 2: it didn't make any sense to have that kind of car. 103 00:05:01,253 --> 00:05:03,253 Speaker 2: They've had to have a station wagon. The kids move out, 104 00:05:03,733 --> 00:05:05,653 Speaker 2: they finally have some money, they buy the car they want. 105 00:05:05,653 --> 00:05:09,853 Speaker 2: Everyone so midlife crisis yeah laughter. Then you know, maybe 106 00:05:09,853 --> 00:05:11,933 Speaker 2: your partner divorces, you get a new partner and they 107 00:05:11,933 --> 00:05:15,133 Speaker 2: don't make life crisis. I just think it's just a 108 00:05:15,133 --> 00:05:16,733 Speaker 2: way to beat up on successful men. 109 00:05:16,933 --> 00:05:18,653 Speaker 3: So rough at the top, Rough at the top for 110 00:05:18,693 --> 00:05:20,293 Speaker 3: a lot of guys out there. But I'd love to 111 00:05:20,333 --> 00:05:20,613 Speaker 3: hear it. 112 00:05:20,613 --> 00:05:23,413 Speaker 2: Also, we need you're not in crisis, you know, we 113 00:05:23,493 --> 00:05:25,893 Speaker 2: hear about We're going to talk about this your crisis 114 00:05:25,933 --> 00:05:27,693 Speaker 2: before you go to school. When you're at school, you're 115 00:05:27,693 --> 00:05:31,293 Speaker 2: in a crisis in your twenties, crisis in your thirties, forties, 116 00:05:31,333 --> 00:05:34,493 Speaker 2: fifty sixties. Yeah, I think you sort of maybe only 117 00:05:34,693 --> 00:05:37,973 Speaker 2: not in crisis. About seventy you get out of crisis. 118 00:05:38,133 --> 00:05:38,373 Speaker 4: Yeah. 119 00:05:38,653 --> 00:05:40,853 Speaker 2: So I think it's just a cartoon way to make 120 00:05:40,933 --> 00:05:42,573 Speaker 2: fun of successful people. 121 00:05:42,653 --> 00:05:44,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's going to be a great chat after three o'clock. 122 00:05:44,933 --> 00:05:47,613 Speaker 3: After two o'clock, a fascinating story of a christ Huge 123 00:05:47,653 --> 00:05:50,253 Speaker 3: couple who found more than two hundred K in the ceiling. 124 00:05:50,653 --> 00:05:52,613 Speaker 3: They are now fighting through the courts to keep some 125 00:05:52,653 --> 00:05:54,573 Speaker 3: of that money. So they found it and sealed and 126 00:05:54,613 --> 00:05:58,773 Speaker 3: plastic bricks tucked into insulation in their property. They reported 127 00:05:58,773 --> 00:06:00,773 Speaker 3: the cash to the police. The police said the money 128 00:06:00,773 --> 00:06:03,453 Speaker 3: should be forfeited because it was the proceeds of crime, 129 00:06:03,533 --> 00:06:07,013 Speaker 3: most likely from drug dealing. But they're now in court 130 00:06:07,293 --> 00:06:10,133 Speaker 3: and their couple's lawyer is arguing they should keep the 131 00:06:10,133 --> 00:06:12,373 Speaker 3: money because they had no part in the criminal activity 132 00:06:12,373 --> 00:06:15,093 Speaker 3: and withholding the cash would discourage other people reporting similar 133 00:06:15,133 --> 00:06:16,053 Speaker 3: fines to the police. 134 00:06:16,093 --> 00:06:18,333 Speaker 2: Why does the crown get it? If anything, the crown 135 00:06:18,373 --> 00:06:20,693 Speaker 2: is responsible for the crime being committed in the first place, 136 00:06:20,733 --> 00:06:23,613 Speaker 2: because it's the crown's job to stop drug crime. 137 00:06:23,733 --> 00:06:24,213 Speaker 3: Right, yep. 138 00:06:24,413 --> 00:06:26,933 Speaker 2: So they're saying this couple shouldn't get it because it's 139 00:06:26,933 --> 00:06:28,853 Speaker 2: the process of crime. Well, this couple had nothing to 140 00:06:28,853 --> 00:06:30,893 Speaker 2: do with the crime and nothing to do with crime enforcement, 141 00:06:31,213 --> 00:06:32,573 Speaker 2: so they got more right to it than you have. 142 00:06:32,813 --> 00:06:34,533 Speaker 3: You need to pass the notes to their lawyer. It's 143 00:06:34,573 --> 00:06:36,053 Speaker 3: a great point if you're better at policing. 144 00:06:36,493 --> 00:06:38,653 Speaker 2: But I mean, two hundred thousand is a lot, and 145 00:06:38,773 --> 00:06:41,053 Speaker 2: you know everyone you know, when you find that money, 146 00:06:41,413 --> 00:06:43,453 Speaker 2: you'd be concerned that someone's going to come back looking 147 00:06:43,493 --> 00:06:45,973 Speaker 2: for it, right, Yeah, so that's probably part of your 148 00:06:46,013 --> 00:06:48,013 Speaker 2: motivation to going going to the police, because not too 149 00:06:48,013 --> 00:06:50,173 Speaker 2: many people in Cristitch that can lose two hundred thousand 150 00:06:50,173 --> 00:06:51,773 Speaker 2: dollars in cash and not want to back. 151 00:06:51,813 --> 00:06:53,213 Speaker 3: Right, you'd narrow it down pretty fast. 152 00:06:53,253 --> 00:06:55,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd know it was yours, right, you'd know you've 153 00:06:55,173 --> 00:06:58,853 Speaker 2: left it there for whatever reason. But I don't know. 154 00:06:58,933 --> 00:07:02,133 Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lot. But you know a lot 155 00:07:02,133 --> 00:07:05,133 Speaker 2: of people found valuable stuff in the houses. Yeah you know, 156 00:07:05,293 --> 00:07:07,093 Speaker 2: so what have you found? And what do you do 157 00:07:07,133 --> 00:07:08,973 Speaker 2: when you find something valuable? You just put it in 158 00:07:08,973 --> 00:07:10,933 Speaker 2: your pocket and shut up about it, or do you 159 00:07:11,133 --> 00:07:13,693 Speaker 2: take it to the police and then they grab it 160 00:07:13,733 --> 00:07:16,213 Speaker 2: off you and just hif it in the and your 161 00:07:16,293 --> 00:07:17,533 Speaker 2: Christmas party fund or whatever. 162 00:07:17,893 --> 00:07:19,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got to be a great chat. I hate 163 00:07:19,253 --> 00:07:21,653 Speaker 3: hundred eighty ten eighty after two o'clock. But right now, 164 00:07:21,693 --> 00:07:23,773 Speaker 3: let's talk about this red shirting. So it's all over 165 00:07:23,853 --> 00:07:27,053 Speaker 3: social media at the moment. What red shirting effectively is 166 00:07:27,133 --> 00:07:29,973 Speaker 3: is parents delaying the start of school, which they claim 167 00:07:30,133 --> 00:07:33,013 Speaker 3: can set their child up for success. It comes from 168 00:07:33,013 --> 00:07:34,933 Speaker 3: a sports term where a coach holds an athlete back 169 00:07:34,973 --> 00:07:37,213 Speaker 3: from competition levels to develop their skills and the hope 170 00:07:37,253 --> 00:07:40,893 Speaker 3: that they will excel. And there's a lot of mixed 171 00:07:40,933 --> 00:07:43,453 Speaker 3: evidence from the experts on this. Many of them say 172 00:07:43,453 --> 00:07:46,813 Speaker 3: I have an older school start age, has any long 173 00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:51,413 Speaker 3: term benefits is still unknown, So delaying school starting can 174 00:07:51,453 --> 00:07:55,653 Speaker 3: simply be avoiding a challenging but inevitable transition for some parents. 175 00:07:55,813 --> 00:07:57,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I one hundred and eight ten eighty. What 176 00:07:57,453 --> 00:07:59,613 Speaker 2: do you think of red shirting? Is it more about 177 00:07:59,653 --> 00:08:03,853 Speaker 2: parental anxiety than the outcomes for your child? Because it's 178 00:08:03,933 --> 00:08:08,133 Speaker 2: hugely anxiety inducing taking your little kid to school for 179 00:08:08,173 --> 00:08:10,813 Speaker 2: the first time and dropping them off and putting them 180 00:08:10,813 --> 00:08:14,053 Speaker 2: in a class. But one week into their time at school, 181 00:08:14,333 --> 00:08:17,653 Speaker 2: they're much more capable at dealing with it. So don't 182 00:08:17,653 --> 00:08:19,133 Speaker 2: you just have to rip the band aid off? I mean, 183 00:08:19,133 --> 00:08:21,013 Speaker 2: it's it's good for them to be around lots of 184 00:08:21,053 --> 00:08:23,213 Speaker 2: other kids, right yeah. And if you're a parent, you're 185 00:08:23,253 --> 00:08:24,653 Speaker 2: just going on, oh, they can't handle it. They can't 186 00:08:24,693 --> 00:08:27,053 Speaker 2: hand it. They can they can't handle it. Kids have 187 00:08:27,093 --> 00:08:30,893 Speaker 2: gone through much worse than sitting on the mat, getting 188 00:08:30,933 --> 00:08:35,933 Speaker 2: red stories, you know, finger painting, playing with lego, all 189 00:08:35,973 --> 00:08:38,893 Speaker 2: that good stuff, you know, maybe learning the alphabet slowly, 190 00:08:39,253 --> 00:08:42,693 Speaker 2: the kind of wonderful teaching that you get in your 191 00:08:42,773 --> 00:08:46,573 Speaker 2: year zero. I mean, and this isn't red shirting in 192 00:08:46,693 --> 00:08:48,493 Speaker 2: terms of you know, just holding them back for a 193 00:08:48,492 --> 00:08:50,493 Speaker 2: little bit soort lines up or whatever you know with 194 00:08:50,573 --> 00:08:53,132 Speaker 2: other kids that they start at the same time, you know, 195 00:08:53,252 --> 00:08:55,652 Speaker 2: and form a gang and poke on other kids or 196 00:08:55,653 --> 00:08:57,453 Speaker 2: whatever it is that you want them to do. But like, 197 00:08:58,693 --> 00:09:00,052 Speaker 2: this is like when you hold them back for a 198 00:09:00,132 --> 00:09:02,532 Speaker 2: year or don't send them to school till they're seven. 199 00:09:03,093 --> 00:09:05,492 Speaker 2: I reckon, You've got to ask yourself, is this more 200 00:09:05,492 --> 00:09:08,172 Speaker 2: about your anxiety or about the kid? What's best for 201 00:09:08,173 --> 00:09:09,973 Speaker 2: the kids? First question you got, asked yourself? 202 00:09:10,012 --> 00:09:12,133 Speaker 3: Yep, great question. Love to hear your answer to it Oh, 203 00:09:12,132 --> 00:09:14,093 Speaker 3: eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty is that number 204 00:09:14,093 --> 00:09:16,252 Speaker 3: to call? Nine two ninety two? Is this more about 205 00:09:16,252 --> 00:09:18,053 Speaker 3: the child's needs if you hold them back? Or could 206 00:09:18,093 --> 00:09:21,773 Speaker 3: it be reflecting anxiety in the parents? Nine two nine two? 207 00:09:21,813 --> 00:09:24,852 Speaker 3: Is that text back? Very shortly? It is fourteen past one. 208 00:09:25,773 --> 00:09:29,252 Speaker 1: The big stories, the big issues, the big trends and 209 00:09:29,492 --> 00:09:30,492 Speaker 1: everything in between. 210 00:09:30,693 --> 00:09:33,612 Speaker 5: Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons us talks. 211 00:09:33,653 --> 00:09:37,732 Speaker 3: It'd be very good afternoon, Jill. It is seventeen past one, 212 00:09:37,852 --> 00:09:40,412 Speaker 3: so we are talking about the idea of red shirting. 213 00:09:40,492 --> 00:09:44,013 Speaker 3: It's taking social media by storm. It effectively means keeping 214 00:09:44,093 --> 00:09:46,492 Speaker 3: your child back from school for a couple of years. 215 00:09:46,533 --> 00:09:49,973 Speaker 3: The argument is that it helps prepare them for success 216 00:09:50,093 --> 00:09:52,453 Speaker 3: later in life. There's are many experts that are pushing 217 00:09:52,453 --> 00:09:53,892 Speaker 3: back on that, but I love to hear from you 218 00:09:53,933 --> 00:09:57,213 Speaker 3: on eight hundred eighty ten eighties. It's something you've considered. 219 00:09:57,252 --> 00:10:00,213 Speaker 3: So effectively, you've got to homeschool them for that year 220 00:10:00,333 --> 00:10:02,772 Speaker 3: or two before they get in. So is that something 221 00:10:02,773 --> 00:10:04,372 Speaker 3: you've considered. Have you given it a crack? 222 00:10:04,852 --> 00:10:06,973 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean that's a lot, isn't it. 223 00:10:06,973 --> 00:10:07,253 Speaker 3: It is? 224 00:10:07,252 --> 00:10:10,053 Speaker 2: It's a lot to keep them around. But what did 225 00:10:10,132 --> 00:10:12,333 Speaker 2: they learn in the first when they first go to school. 226 00:10:12,372 --> 00:10:14,533 Speaker 2: I think it's a lot of important stuff. Where to 227 00:10:14,533 --> 00:10:16,093 Speaker 2: put your bag lunch. 228 00:10:15,973 --> 00:10:18,412 Speaker 3: That's huge, yep, your cabyhole, how. 229 00:10:18,213 --> 00:10:21,893 Speaker 2: To line up, sit on the mat, move between activities, 230 00:10:21,933 --> 00:10:24,372 Speaker 2: the school rules that you have to start learning. Yep, 231 00:10:25,213 --> 00:10:27,732 Speaker 2: you have to ask help from adults. There's so much 232 00:10:27,773 --> 00:10:30,173 Speaker 2: stuff that you can't really teach at home. I mean, 233 00:10:30,213 --> 00:10:31,813 Speaker 2: you can probably teach them where to put their bag 234 00:10:31,813 --> 00:10:34,172 Speaker 2: in lunch box, but you're not You're kind of a 235 00:10:34,213 --> 00:10:36,132 Speaker 2: weird situation if you're making them wear a bag around 236 00:10:36,132 --> 00:10:36,453 Speaker 2: the house. 237 00:10:36,693 --> 00:10:38,733 Speaker 3: Yeah, but even how you treat the teacher, you know, 238 00:10:38,773 --> 00:10:42,293 Speaker 3: beg on pleases and thank you and good mornings, good 239 00:10:42,372 --> 00:10:45,292 Speaker 3: morning missus Smith. I mean, that's all part of getting 240 00:10:45,333 --> 00:10:48,333 Speaker 3: into the real world. Respect to people in those positions, 241 00:10:48,372 --> 00:10:49,253 Speaker 3: how going deal. 242 00:10:49,132 --> 00:10:51,413 Speaker 2: Going to the toilet, independently, all those kinds of things. 243 00:10:51,413 --> 00:10:53,693 Speaker 2: I think that the sooner you get them into school, 244 00:10:53,693 --> 00:10:56,253 Speaker 2: the better for learning that kind of stuff. Nick, welcome 245 00:10:56,293 --> 00:11:00,892 Speaker 2: to show. How are you good? 246 00:11:00,933 --> 00:11:01,133 Speaker 6: Good? 247 00:11:01,132 --> 00:11:01,532 Speaker 4: Good? 248 00:11:02,173 --> 00:11:05,533 Speaker 3: And what's your thoughts about this idea about redshiroting. 249 00:11:05,653 --> 00:11:07,492 Speaker 7: Well, you were just saying, the sooner you get them 250 00:11:07,533 --> 00:11:09,333 Speaker 7: to school, the sooner they learn how to stay, please, 251 00:11:09,372 --> 00:11:11,372 Speaker 7: and thank you and stuff. What makes you think they 252 00:11:11,413 --> 00:11:13,173 Speaker 7: even learned that when they go to school. I've been 253 00:11:13,213 --> 00:11:16,412 Speaker 7: a teacher for fifteen years. I'm not a teacher anymore. 254 00:11:16,573 --> 00:11:18,973 Speaker 7: Done a bit of homeschooling with my own sign as well, 255 00:11:19,573 --> 00:11:21,853 Speaker 7: and I'd say that a lot of those skills don't 256 00:11:21,852 --> 00:11:24,132 Speaker 7: get learned at school any better than they would have 257 00:11:24,132 --> 00:11:24,813 Speaker 7: been learned at home. 258 00:11:25,573 --> 00:11:27,612 Speaker 2: What about having to go to the toilet independently, That's 259 00:11:27,612 --> 00:11:28,772 Speaker 2: a big one. They have to learn how to do 260 00:11:28,852 --> 00:11:31,253 Speaker 2: at school, so the teacher can't take everyone to the bathroom. 261 00:11:32,213 --> 00:11:35,612 Speaker 7: Really, does every six year old at home need a 262 00:11:35,693 --> 00:11:37,893 Speaker 7: mum or dad's taken to the toilet? I reckon, I reckon. 263 00:11:37,933 --> 00:11:40,372 Speaker 7: You can get all that the facts, like, the Americans 264 00:11:40,413 --> 00:11:42,413 Speaker 7: are right into their homeschooling right, have been for a 265 00:11:42,453 --> 00:11:46,053 Speaker 7: long time, and they've done decades of research on this, 266 00:11:46,252 --> 00:11:50,012 Speaker 7: as have other countries. And the biggest difference between the 267 00:11:50,053 --> 00:11:51,973 Speaker 7: kids who stay at home more doesn't have to be 268 00:11:52,012 --> 00:11:53,612 Speaker 7: homeschool you can just keep them home for a year 269 00:11:53,732 --> 00:11:57,132 Speaker 7: or two, is they have longer anxiety. They feel more 270 00:11:57,173 --> 00:12:00,293 Speaker 7: secure they had mom and dad around or their siblings 271 00:12:00,293 --> 00:12:02,773 Speaker 7: around for a bit longer. They've got those kind of 272 00:12:02,773 --> 00:12:06,253 Speaker 7: stronger family bonds and all the research is that with 273 00:12:06,413 --> 00:12:09,892 Speaker 7: that kind of strong sense of family and strong sense 274 00:12:09,933 --> 00:12:13,652 Speaker 7: of being kind of loved and supported, they have lower anxiety, 275 00:12:13,732 --> 00:12:14,292 Speaker 7: they backed them. 276 00:12:15,173 --> 00:12:17,573 Speaker 2: That's not what this research in New Zealand's is shows 277 00:12:17,612 --> 00:12:20,133 Speaker 2: that the short term academic games often despair and there's 278 00:12:20,213 --> 00:12:23,293 Speaker 2: no strong evidence of long term advantage to starting school later. 279 00:12:23,693 --> 00:12:25,012 Speaker 2: That's that's the evidence has come through. 280 00:12:25,053 --> 00:12:26,732 Speaker 4: Now later how much later? 281 00:12:26,732 --> 00:12:27,892 Speaker 7: A you're talking about two years. 282 00:12:27,813 --> 00:12:31,373 Speaker 2: Or well, this is talking about you know, because they're 283 00:12:31,372 --> 00:12:34,293 Speaker 2: not actually talking about that situation where you you know, 284 00:12:34,372 --> 00:12:36,213 Speaker 2: you can hold them off. You know, you have to 285 00:12:36,213 --> 00:12:38,333 Speaker 2: get them through in that first year before they're six, right, 286 00:12:38,732 --> 00:12:42,532 Speaker 2: so this is yeah, yeah, so that year zero stuff, 287 00:12:42,852 --> 00:12:44,213 Speaker 2: you know, you might want to hold them for. I 288 00:12:44,252 --> 00:12:45,693 Speaker 2: don't think anyone's got a problem if you hold them 289 00:12:45,732 --> 00:12:48,173 Speaker 2: back for a couple of weeks. So they've got parent 290 00:12:48,293 --> 00:12:50,053 Speaker 2: pulling forgetting them to school or something like that. 291 00:12:51,293 --> 00:12:53,253 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, no, we're not talking about that. But I 292 00:12:53,293 --> 00:12:55,252 Speaker 7: mean we're in the middle of a bit of an 293 00:12:55,252 --> 00:12:59,493 Speaker 7: anxiety crisis with our youth, right, that's well recognized. There's 294 00:12:59,492 --> 00:13:03,973 Speaker 7: a lot of problems around self esteem and anxiety and 295 00:13:04,012 --> 00:13:06,653 Speaker 7: these kind of issues with a lot of the young people, 296 00:13:06,693 --> 00:13:10,413 Speaker 7: and you know, the issues weren't really there when I 297 00:13:10,413 --> 00:13:12,252 Speaker 7: think you're about my age're in your forties, you know, 298 00:13:12,293 --> 00:13:14,412 Speaker 7: it wasn't a big issue when we were young. And 299 00:13:15,573 --> 00:13:18,732 Speaker 7: one thing the research does back very strongly is that 300 00:13:18,852 --> 00:13:21,053 Speaker 7: kids who have a stronger bond with mum and dad 301 00:13:21,573 --> 00:13:26,173 Speaker 7: feel less anxiety and that, and there's plenty of research 302 00:13:26,252 --> 00:13:29,293 Speaker 7: the fact that that also leads to better social skills. 303 00:13:29,533 --> 00:13:32,652 Speaker 7: You're more confident, you're more outgoing, you take more risks, 304 00:13:32,653 --> 00:13:34,053 Speaker 7: you do better in long term career. 305 00:13:34,132 --> 00:13:36,973 Speaker 2: But is an anxiety dealt with as an anxiety dealt 306 00:13:37,012 --> 00:13:39,773 Speaker 2: with by facing your fears and going into a situation 307 00:13:39,973 --> 00:13:43,533 Speaker 2: like school as an area where you deal learn to 308 00:13:43,573 --> 00:13:47,492 Speaker 2: deal with other human beings and how to socialize, and 309 00:13:47,492 --> 00:13:49,973 Speaker 2: that if you if you slip behind with that learning 310 00:13:49,973 --> 00:13:52,373 Speaker 2: to deal how to socialize, then you get in there. 311 00:13:52,413 --> 00:13:55,373 Speaker 2: Isn't it just as likely that it becomes a monster 312 00:13:55,453 --> 00:13:58,333 Speaker 2: that you're scared of, and every time you avoid something, 313 00:13:58,612 --> 00:14:00,213 Speaker 2: the scarier it gets, if you know what I'm. 314 00:14:00,053 --> 00:14:04,293 Speaker 7: Saying, Yeah, yeah, definitely, the challenge doesn't always lead to strength, right, 315 00:14:04,333 --> 00:14:09,093 Speaker 7: You don't always build up resilience and confidence by facing 316 00:14:09,533 --> 00:14:11,373 Speaker 7: what you don't like a lot of it depends on 317 00:14:11,453 --> 00:14:15,132 Speaker 7: a lot of little details, right they come, Traumatic experiences 318 00:14:15,132 --> 00:14:18,733 Speaker 7: don't always leave a person stronger. So what the research 319 00:14:18,773 --> 00:14:20,653 Speaker 7: says is that if you have a stronger bond with 320 00:14:20,733 --> 00:14:23,973 Speaker 7: your parents, if you feel more like you've got like 321 00:14:23,973 --> 00:14:26,213 Speaker 7: a really strong team at home that really backs you 322 00:14:26,333 --> 00:14:28,133 Speaker 7: and you know you know them well and you've had 323 00:14:28,173 --> 00:14:30,973 Speaker 7: more time with them, you've developed more of a sense 324 00:14:31,013 --> 00:14:34,093 Speaker 7: of security and confidence, and so when you go into 325 00:14:34,133 --> 00:14:37,932 Speaker 7: those difficult situations, you're more likely to you know, be 326 00:14:38,013 --> 00:14:40,093 Speaker 7: the rubber ducky and just kind of like roll with 327 00:14:40,173 --> 00:14:41,853 Speaker 7: it and roll with the punches and come out better 328 00:14:41,893 --> 00:14:42,412 Speaker 7: and stronger. 329 00:14:43,333 --> 00:14:45,573 Speaker 3: But what about for so, if you send your kids 330 00:14:45,613 --> 00:14:47,053 Speaker 3: to school at seven, you hold them back for a 331 00:14:47,093 --> 00:14:50,173 Speaker 3: couple of years, so that child, still developing those social cues, 332 00:14:50,253 --> 00:14:52,653 Speaker 3: comes into a situation where they don't have a common 333 00:14:52,693 --> 00:14:55,853 Speaker 3: experience with the other kids there. So you've got you know, 334 00:14:55,933 --> 00:14:58,213 Speaker 3: you're surrounded by children who have been in the schooling 335 00:14:58,253 --> 00:15:00,613 Speaker 3: system for a couple of years, they've formed friend groups. 336 00:15:00,613 --> 00:15:03,413 Speaker 3: You're now coming in as an outsider, trying to find 337 00:15:03,493 --> 00:15:06,213 Speaker 3: your way at a critical time of your life where 338 00:15:06,253 --> 00:15:09,533 Speaker 3: you've missed two years of socializing with people who hopefully 339 00:15:09,533 --> 00:15:10,293 Speaker 3: will be your friends. 340 00:15:11,253 --> 00:15:14,133 Speaker 7: Yeah, true, true. I mean, I'm not saying there's no 341 00:15:14,653 --> 00:15:18,773 Speaker 7: kind of negatives as positives and negatives, but you know, 342 00:15:18,853 --> 00:15:21,933 Speaker 7: the wisdom of decades, the lay of the land, the 343 00:15:21,973 --> 00:15:24,693 Speaker 7: evidence that pops out is that in the long run, 344 00:15:24,733 --> 00:15:28,693 Speaker 7: that security you have, that bitter sense of security and 345 00:15:28,773 --> 00:15:33,213 Speaker 7: confidence that comes from more family time, means that you 346 00:15:33,293 --> 00:15:37,253 Speaker 7: deal with those problems better and you come out stronger 347 00:15:37,293 --> 00:15:37,813 Speaker 7: because of it. 348 00:15:38,013 --> 00:15:40,813 Speaker 2: We'll not according to this particular study here that we're 349 00:15:40,853 --> 00:15:45,173 Speaker 2: talking about. But I guess my fear. 350 00:15:46,093 --> 00:15:48,693 Speaker 7: One study, which is fair enough, but I mean there 351 00:15:48,773 --> 00:15:49,813 Speaker 7: are dozens of studies. 352 00:15:50,053 --> 00:15:52,693 Speaker 2: My fear is that it's more about parental anxiety than 353 00:15:52,773 --> 00:15:55,773 Speaker 2: child outcomes. Because I remember taking my kids to school 354 00:15:55,813 --> 00:15:57,253 Speaker 2: on the first day, and it was one of the 355 00:15:57,293 --> 00:16:00,733 Speaker 2: hardest things I've ever done. They were going on five, 356 00:16:01,333 --> 00:16:03,373 Speaker 2: you know, when they turned five. Took them to school, 357 00:16:03,453 --> 00:16:05,773 Speaker 2: and I remember steering through the window, my son sitting 358 00:16:05,773 --> 00:16:07,693 Speaker 2: on the mat, just going, oh my god, he's out 359 00:16:07,693 --> 00:16:10,093 Speaker 2: in the world. Now he's got this twenty five kids 360 00:16:10,093 --> 00:16:12,973 Speaker 2: around them. What's what's he going to do? And terrify 361 00:16:13,133 --> 00:16:14,253 Speaker 2: The anxiety was all me. 362 00:16:14,373 --> 00:16:16,333 Speaker 5: He was fine, yeah, yeah. 363 00:16:16,173 --> 00:16:18,213 Speaker 7: But you could you could relate the same thing to 364 00:16:18,333 --> 00:16:21,613 Speaker 7: Kenny and daycare that's even younger. It's even more you know, 365 00:16:21,693 --> 00:16:23,853 Speaker 7: anxiety inducing as a parent to drop them off if 366 00:16:23,853 --> 00:16:25,973 Speaker 7: you're doing full time. I mean, there are parents out 367 00:16:25,973 --> 00:16:28,493 Speaker 7: there who drop off their two year old to longer 368 00:16:28,493 --> 00:16:30,613 Speaker 7: hours than school hours, right, and so it's all the 369 00:16:30,613 --> 00:16:35,133 Speaker 7: same anxiety. So if that argument was true, then those 370 00:16:35,213 --> 00:16:37,052 Speaker 7: kids would come out the strongest of all, you know 371 00:16:37,053 --> 00:16:38,653 Speaker 7: what I mean at two years old, they were thrown 372 00:16:38,693 --> 00:16:41,653 Speaker 7: into the wild, they socialized that have great you know, 373 00:16:42,013 --> 00:16:46,773 Speaker 7: resilience and excellent social skills. But that's again, that's just 374 00:16:46,813 --> 00:16:48,893 Speaker 7: not what the research is. You know, those kids are 375 00:16:48,933 --> 00:16:53,453 Speaker 7: more likely to feel you know, lower security, and they're 376 00:16:53,453 --> 00:16:57,173 Speaker 7: more likely to have anxiety and other related you know. 377 00:16:57,533 --> 00:17:01,733 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting because both my kids with incredibly strong 378 00:17:01,853 --> 00:17:05,572 Speaker 2: relationship with our kids, and they were they were in 379 00:17:05,693 --> 00:17:10,253 Speaker 2: daycare and then they were and school from five and 380 00:17:10,413 --> 00:17:12,053 Speaker 2: I just think five years has quite a long time 381 00:17:12,093 --> 00:17:15,093 Speaker 2: to form a bond with someone and you still you know, 382 00:17:15,533 --> 00:17:17,093 Speaker 2: I mean I was lucky because I was, you know, 383 00:17:17,333 --> 00:17:19,133 Speaker 2: when I was working in the day so the kids, 384 00:17:19,213 --> 00:17:21,693 Speaker 2: I was there for the boys when they came home 385 00:17:21,733 --> 00:17:24,093 Speaker 2: from school, So when they walked in the door there. 386 00:17:24,093 --> 00:17:26,213 Speaker 2: I was like, did I buddy, how are you? 387 00:17:26,053 --> 00:17:26,293 Speaker 8: You know? 388 00:17:26,373 --> 00:17:29,053 Speaker 2: That kind of thing? It was a huge advantage for us. 389 00:17:29,133 --> 00:17:31,813 Speaker 2: But I guess, I guess it depends with different kids, 390 00:17:32,093 --> 00:17:33,813 Speaker 2: different kids with different results. 391 00:17:34,093 --> 00:17:35,693 Speaker 7: I mean, you're going to get a million different kids 392 00:17:35,733 --> 00:17:38,253 Speaker 7: are going to get a million different, slightly different results. Right, 393 00:17:38,293 --> 00:17:40,933 Speaker 7: So you've got to look across. If you're talking about 394 00:17:40,973 --> 00:17:42,853 Speaker 7: what's best for the nation, you've got to look across 395 00:17:42,893 --> 00:17:45,573 Speaker 7: the statistics. You've got to look across you know, thousands 396 00:17:45,893 --> 00:17:49,133 Speaker 7: or even millions of kids over time, and and you know, 397 00:17:49,453 --> 00:17:51,813 Speaker 7: like I mean, it was better for the kids to 398 00:17:51,853 --> 00:17:54,253 Speaker 7: face the world without much time with their parents, then 399 00:17:54,293 --> 00:17:56,573 Speaker 7: it would be better that you weren't at home, right, 400 00:17:56,613 --> 00:17:58,333 Speaker 7: It would be better that they got home. You didn't 401 00:17:58,333 --> 00:18:00,853 Speaker 7: get home till six. They had to kind of debrief themselves, 402 00:18:00,893 --> 00:18:03,133 Speaker 7: they had to deal with whatever at school, you know, 403 00:18:03,173 --> 00:18:05,893 Speaker 7: happened themselves. You can probably relate to the fact that 404 00:18:05,933 --> 00:18:08,653 Speaker 7: it's probably in your kids' interests. You know, they probably 405 00:18:08,653 --> 00:18:11,253 Speaker 7: benefited from you beating there a bit of a bit 406 00:18:11,333 --> 00:18:14,413 Speaker 7: more family time, you know, And this is even if 407 00:18:14,693 --> 00:18:17,973 Speaker 7: kids do start at five. Kids who spend more family 408 00:18:18,053 --> 00:18:21,133 Speaker 7: time deal with life's problems better. 409 00:18:21,693 --> 00:18:23,933 Speaker 2: Thank you for that call, Nick, I mean interesting, It depends, 410 00:18:24,013 --> 00:18:26,293 Speaker 2: you know, generally speaking, they'll be true. Some families do 411 00:18:26,413 --> 00:18:27,253 Speaker 2: terrible things to their kids. 412 00:18:27,373 --> 00:18:29,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, very true. Yeah, Nick, thank you very much for 413 00:18:29,893 --> 00:18:31,653 Speaker 3: your call. Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty is 414 00:18:31,693 --> 00:18:33,413 Speaker 3: the number to call. Love to you your thoughts about 415 00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:35,573 Speaker 3: the idea of red shirting holding your kids back for 416 00:18:35,613 --> 00:18:36,933 Speaker 3: a couple of years before school. 417 00:18:36,973 --> 00:18:38,733 Speaker 2: Do you agree with Nick that it's better for them 418 00:18:38,773 --> 00:18:42,013 Speaker 2: and it's crook causes, you know, forms a stronger bond 419 00:18:42,013 --> 00:18:43,893 Speaker 2: and they do better. Or do you think it's more 420 00:18:43,933 --> 00:18:46,213 Speaker 2: about parental anxiety than child anxiety. 421 00:18:46,333 --> 00:18:48,133 Speaker 3: Love to your thoughts.

That's a 468 00:20:43,053 --> 00:20:46,973 Speaker 2: good point. Actually, So this this report there we're talking 469 00:20:47,053 --> 00:20:50,293 Speaker 2: about when it comes to red shooting kids is saying 470 00:20:50,293 --> 00:20:54,773 Speaker 2: that there's no discernible academic difference or advantage. But I 471 00:20:54,813 --> 00:20:57,333 Speaker 2: would say that there would be a reasonable indicator of 472 00:20:57,373 --> 00:20:59,733 Speaker 2: how you're doing at school, your academic success, right. 473 00:20:59,693 --> 00:21:00,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, spot on. 474 00:21:00,893 --> 00:21:04,813 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean the other thing with this at five 475 00:21:04,893 --> 00:21:06,893 Speaker 2: and seending them to school, it's not like you're just 476 00:21:06,973 --> 00:21:10,133 Speaker 2: throwing them away signing them up to the merchant Navy. 477 00:21:10,613 --> 00:21:12,613 Speaker 2: You drop them off at nine and pick them up 478 00:21:12,653 --> 00:21:15,292 Speaker 2: at three, and so you're still spending all that family 479 00:21:15,333 --> 00:21:18,293 Speaker 2: time within the afternoon and arguably not as stressed with 480 00:21:18,333 --> 00:21:21,813 Speaker 2: them because they've had some time, and plus speaking from 481 00:21:21,853 --> 00:21:24,173 Speaker 2: experience with my kids, once you send them to school 482 00:21:24,213 --> 00:21:26,933 Speaker 2: and they're dealing with all those other kids, they just 483 00:21:27,093 --> 00:21:29,813 Speaker 2: fizz with all the interaction and they develop so much, 484 00:21:30,213 --> 00:21:32,973 Speaker 2: so much quicker, rather than the environment that you have 485 00:21:33,093 --> 00:21:36,293 Speaker 2: and home, which is quieter, there's less people their own 486 00:21:36,293 --> 00:21:41,653 Speaker 2: age around. I mean, I notice, I mean it's absolutely 487 00:21:41,693 --> 00:21:44,453 Speaker 2: different with every kid, but I noticed just it accelerates 488 00:21:45,093 --> 00:21:49,813 Speaker 2: their developments in every single way. Once they're with the kids. 489 00:21:49,893 --> 00:21:52,973 Speaker 2: You know, their physical abilities because they're playing more sport, 490 00:21:53,013 --> 00:21:57,253 Speaker 2: their ability to communicate, and their ability to socialize with 491 00:21:57,253 --> 00:21:59,773 Speaker 2: other kids just skyrockets once they go to school. I mean, 492 00:22:00,573 --> 00:22:03,373 Speaker 2: if you've got one kid at home or two kids 493 00:22:03,413 --> 00:22:07,333 Speaker 2: at home, then can you really create that same intense 494 00:22:07,573 --> 00:22:10,853 Speaker 2: environment that they that they need to enter at some point? 495 00:22:10,973 --> 00:22:13,573 Speaker 3: Yeah, very difficult to do and arguably, I mean it 496 00:22:13,613 --> 00:22:16,173 Speaker 3: must be at that point of a child's life and 497 00:22:16,213 --> 00:22:20,453 Speaker 3: development that enthusiasm and excitement is critical and if you 498 00:22:20,493 --> 00:22:22,293 Speaker 3: beg yourself as a parent to do that at home. 499 00:22:22,413 --> 00:22:25,173 Speaker 3: But I'm with your argument. I think when you've got 500 00:22:25,173 --> 00:22:28,693 Speaker 3: thirty kids running around, all excitement is contagious. When you're 501 00:22:28,693 --> 00:22:30,333 Speaker 3: that age, when you're any age. 502 00:22:30,093 --> 00:22:32,453 Speaker 2: Be honest, no matter how much you love your kids, 503 00:22:32,733 --> 00:22:35,933 Speaker 2: and I love my kids at that age, the games 504 00:22:35,973 --> 00:22:37,933 Speaker 2: they want to play a boring because they're kids games 505 00:22:38,133 --> 00:22:41,373 Speaker 2: and there's only so much time you can spend focusing 506 00:22:41,453 --> 00:22:42,373 Speaker 2: on what they want to do. 507 00:22:42,653 --> 00:22:42,853 Speaker 3: Yeah. 508 00:22:42,973 --> 00:22:45,773 Speaker 2: Right. Put them in a class with twenty five other kids. 509 00:22:45,893 --> 00:22:47,933 Speaker 2: Then there's a lot of people on the same page 510 00:22:47,933 --> 00:22:51,133 Speaker 2: as them, and they get a lot more stimulated. If 511 00:22:51,133 --> 00:22:53,173 Speaker 2: your kids don't have that family connection by five, they 512 00:22:53,173 --> 00:22:55,973 Speaker 2: won't have it by seven. It's the environment, not the time, 513 00:22:57,133 --> 00:22:57,853 Speaker 2: says that text. 514 00:22:58,093 --> 00:23:00,053 Speaker 3: Keep those teachs coming through nine to two ninety two 515 00:23:00,133 --> 00:23:01,493 Speaker 3: and really can to hear from you on oh eight 516 00:23:01,573 --> 00:23:04,173 Speaker 3: hundred eighty ten eighty holding your kid back for a 517 00:23:04,173 --> 00:23:06,333 Speaker 3: few years before they start school? Is that about the 518 00:23:06,413 --> 00:23:10,013 Speaker 3: child's need or does it reflect the anxiety of the parents. 519 00:23:10,053 --> 00:23:11,213 Speaker 3: It is twenty seven to two. 520 00:23:12,733 --> 00:23:16,413 Speaker 11: You've talk said be headlines with your Ride, New Zealand's 521 00:23:16,453 --> 00:23:20,333 Speaker 11: number one taxi app. Download your Ride today.

So we're talking about sending 542 00:24:32,293 --> 00:24:35,813 Speaker 3: your kids to school A few years later, it's called 543 00:24:35,893 --> 00:24:38,893 Speaker 3: red shirting. It's taken social media by storm, but really 544 00:24:38,933 --> 00:24:40,973 Speaker 3: tend to have a chat with you. Do you really 545 00:24:41,013 --> 00:24:43,853 Speaker 3: think that that would lead to better outcomes for a 546 00:24:43,933 --> 00:24:46,493 Speaker 3: child or do you think there's a bit of parental 547 00:24:46,493 --> 00:24:49,853 Speaker 3: anxiety involved in cutting the ties and sending your kids 548 00:24:49,893 --> 00:24:51,573 Speaker 3: to school at age five? Or one hundred and eighteen 549 00:24:51,613 --> 00:24:52,333 Speaker 3: eighty is the number? 550 00:24:52,493 --> 00:24:55,613 Speaker 2: Call the texter says, you guys are missing a few things. 551 00:24:55,653 --> 00:24:57,893 Speaker 2: Though New Zealand kids legally have to be schooled from 552 00:24:57,933 --> 00:25:00,213 Speaker 2: six years old. Yeah, as we said, so we didn't 553 00:25:00,213 --> 00:25:02,052 Speaker 2: miss that. So if not going to school, then they 554 00:25:02,093 --> 00:25:05,093 Speaker 2: have to be homeschool who say they have heaps of 555 00:25:05,133 --> 00:25:08,853 Speaker 2: interactions but have their parents with them. Also, our new 556 00:25:09,013 --> 00:25:12,013 Speaker 2: entrant teachers talk about the overwhelming bad behavior, lack of 557 00:25:12,013 --> 00:25:13,933 Speaker 2: manners and ability to sit on the mat and ability 558 00:25:13,933 --> 00:25:17,693 Speaker 2: toil themselves. Some are still lacking the walls, licking the 559 00:25:17,693 --> 00:25:21,173 Speaker 2: walls where middle learners are left behind as they don't 560 00:25:21,173 --> 00:25:23,973 Speaker 2: have time. That's a different school to even thirteen years ago. 561 00:25:24,053 --> 00:25:28,333 Speaker 2: Matt as neurodivergency rates get higher and higher. Yeah, I 562 00:25:28,373 --> 00:25:32,213 Speaker 2: mean why is that? Why are neurodivergent rates getting high 563 00:25:32,213 --> 00:25:32,493 Speaker 2: and high? 564 00:25:32,573 --> 00:25:34,973 Speaker 3: It's a good question. I mean, it is a new phenomena. 565 00:25:35,093 --> 00:25:37,453 Speaker 2: And so if the if the kids are arriving at 566 00:25:37,453 --> 00:25:40,213 Speaker 2: school like this, that suggests that what's been happening at 567 00:25:40,213 --> 00:25:43,213 Speaker 2: home is not working out great for them. Yeah right, 568 00:25:43,413 --> 00:25:47,053 Speaker 2: So if they're arriving at school and lack of manners 569 00:25:47,053 --> 00:25:49,253 Speaker 2: and ability to sit on a mat and ability toilet 570 00:25:49,253 --> 00:25:55,133 Speaker 2: themselves and licking the walls, nothing wrong with your enough, 571 00:25:55,533 --> 00:25:57,413 Speaker 2: nothing wrong with licking the walls at five? 572 00:25:57,613 --> 00:25:59,013 Speaker 3: Yep, Willie Wonka was all for it. 573 00:25:59,093 --> 00:26:01,053 Speaker 2: You got to see what everything tastes like. It's good 574 00:26:01,093 --> 00:26:03,733 Speaker 2: for you, then maybe you need to get them into 575 00:26:03,733 --> 00:26:06,013 Speaker 2: school and away from those parents that aren't teaching them 576 00:26:06,013 --> 00:26:07,013 Speaker 2: how to toilet themselves. 577 00:26:07,413 --> 00:26:10,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, the rubber has to hit the road at some point. 578 00:26:10,413 --> 00:26:12,133 Speaker 2: And so what do you think an extra two years 579 00:26:12,173 --> 00:26:13,973 Speaker 2: of these parents that can't get their kids to be 580 00:26:14,133 --> 00:26:15,893 Speaker 2: at that state by their five is going to make 581 00:26:15,933 --> 00:26:18,613 Speaker 2: them amazing? You know, like, you know they have to 582 00:26:18,613 --> 00:26:20,053 Speaker 2: be at sex and you arrange for them to go 583 00:26:20,133 --> 00:26:23,453 Speaker 2: to school at seven. So an extra two years of 584 00:26:23,493 --> 00:26:27,413 Speaker 2: the same parenting that has sent these war liquors to school. 585 00:26:27,373 --> 00:26:29,253 Speaker 3: Just feels like these trends that pop up. When I 586 00:26:29,573 --> 00:26:32,013 Speaker 3: was younger, the trend was that it's important to send 587 00:26:32,013 --> 00:26:34,052 Speaker 3: your kids to daycare. So I went to daycare. All 588 00:26:34,053 --> 00:26:36,613 Speaker 3: my friends went to daycare, and I think, by and large, 589 00:26:36,613 --> 00:26:38,693 Speaker 3: most of us have turned out pretty well. So all 590 00:26:38,733 --> 00:26:41,293 Speaker 3: this stuff about if you send your kids to school 591 00:26:41,293 --> 00:26:43,973 Speaker 3: too early, they're going to be anxious messes with all 592 00:26:44,013 --> 00:26:48,453 Speaker 3: bunches of neurological problems, that just wasn't true with my generation. 593 00:26:48,653 --> 00:26:50,973 Speaker 3: There is an epidemic happening apparently, but we're going to 594 00:26:51,013 --> 00:26:53,013 Speaker 3: figure out why. I mean, clearly, if I look at 595 00:26:53,013 --> 00:26:55,253 Speaker 3: my generation, it's not because we were chucked into daycare 596 00:26:55,293 --> 00:26:56,173 Speaker 3: at eighteen months old. 597 00:26:56,333 --> 00:26:59,933 Speaker 2: I went to dinner with some people recently, I don't 598 00:26:59,933 --> 00:27:02,413 Speaker 2: want to hopefully they're not listening. Maybe I'm sharing a 599 00:27:02,453 --> 00:27:04,693 Speaker 2: bit big audience, but all their kids had these air 600 00:27:04,773 --> 00:27:07,453 Speaker 2: muffs on and I asked why and they said because 601 00:27:07,493 --> 00:27:10,572 Speaker 2: they get over steam related and I thought, well, that's 602 00:27:10,613 --> 00:27:13,333 Speaker 2: probably because you're putting mfs on them. Kids should learn 603 00:27:13,373 --> 00:27:16,812 Speaker 2: to deal with overstimulation. That's part of being Part of 604 00:27:16,813 --> 00:27:18,493 Speaker 2: being a human is dealing with other humans. 605 00:27:18,573 --> 00:27:18,773 Speaker 4: Yep. 606 00:27:18,973 --> 00:27:21,533 Speaker 2: And so you need to get out. I mean, evolutionarily, 607 00:27:21,573 --> 00:27:25,093 Speaker 2: we grew up in villages groups of fifty people, so 608 00:27:25,133 --> 00:27:28,133 Speaker 2: all the kids were running around together, So isolating them off, 609 00:27:28,173 --> 00:27:29,453 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I think you have to do that. 610 00:27:29,533 --> 00:27:31,573 Speaker 2: You have to be very sure you're doing the right 611 00:27:31,613 --> 00:27:35,693 Speaker 2: thing if you keep them at home till six or seven. 612 00:27:35,813 --> 00:27:37,813 Speaker 3: Impulse control is a massive thing and you've got to 613 00:27:37,853 --> 00:27:41,013 Speaker 3: learn it at some stage as a kid. I'm sure, absolutely. 614 00:27:41,093 --> 00:27:42,893 Speaker 3: I know. I was a real idiot when I was three, 615 00:27:42,973 --> 00:27:45,133 Speaker 3: four and five and did my mum's hidden. But what 616 00:27:45,173 --> 00:27:46,853 Speaker 3: did they do when I was screaming and being an 617 00:27:46,853 --> 00:27:48,693 Speaker 3: idiot in a restaurant? So if you don't stop that, 618 00:27:48,813 --> 00:27:51,053 Speaker 3: we're going home right now, and that was they put 619 00:27:51,053 --> 00:27:53,173 Speaker 3: you in the car. You go home, you're punished, You 620 00:27:53,253 --> 00:27:55,213 Speaker 3: go to your room until you figure it out. And 621 00:27:55,253 --> 00:27:57,532 Speaker 3: it's all about learning impulse control that you can't be 622 00:27:57,613 --> 00:27:59,453 Speaker 3: as a child screaming in a restaurant because you know 623 00:27:59,493 --> 00:28:00,333 Speaker 3: these consequences. 624 00:28:00,533 --> 00:28:04,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, here you go, Tyler. Well you turned out. Welcome 625 00:28:04,933 --> 00:28:08,173 Speaker 2: to the show, Abdullah, Hey. 626 00:28:08,613 --> 00:28:12,973 Speaker 4: Afternoon, you guys. So my son had a very severe 627 00:28:13,053 --> 00:28:18,373 Speaker 4: separation anxiety since the day he started kindergarten. He never 628 00:28:18,493 --> 00:28:21,653 Speaker 4: really wanted wanted to go in the first place. So 629 00:28:21,933 --> 00:28:24,813 Speaker 4: he like, okay, so I'll give you a bit of 630 00:28:24,813 --> 00:28:27,293 Speaker 4: a contact. So I've just got one son, so being 631 00:28:27,493 --> 00:28:31,933 Speaker 4: alone sibling, he got all our attention. And I believe 632 00:28:32,253 --> 00:28:34,573 Speaker 4: and my wife believes, and he also believes that we 633 00:28:34,613 --> 00:28:38,573 Speaker 4: are really closely admitted family, were strongly bonded together and 634 00:28:38,893 --> 00:28:41,493 Speaker 4: that might have actually added up as well. So he 635 00:28:41,933 --> 00:28:45,253 Speaker 4: was in the first place not wanting to let my 636 00:28:45,333 --> 00:28:48,213 Speaker 4: wife go, especially my wife, so I was always second 637 00:28:48,253 --> 00:28:51,093 Speaker 4: in line. If mom's not around, then that should be available. 638 00:28:51,453 --> 00:28:55,173 Speaker 4: But so for that sake, what we what we decided 639 00:28:55,213 --> 00:28:59,453 Speaker 4: to do is that we would definitely send him to 640 00:28:59,493 --> 00:29:02,013 Speaker 4: kindergarten and then school at the right age, because that 641 00:29:02,133 --> 00:29:05,493 Speaker 4: is important for social skills. Had we not been in 642 00:29:05,573 --> 00:29:08,893 Speaker 4: New Zealand, and because I'm an immigrant, I can and 643 00:29:09,093 --> 00:29:12,293 Speaker 4: kind of compare things around other parts of the world. 644 00:29:13,133 --> 00:29:15,653 Speaker 4: So had they been in either the Middle Eastern part 645 00:29:15,653 --> 00:29:17,973 Speaker 4: of the world or Asian part of the world, I 646 00:29:18,053 --> 00:29:22,253 Speaker 4: would probably have him at home for a couple of years, 647 00:29:22,253 --> 00:29:29,653 Speaker 4: maybe because those places they are targeting or concentrating a 648 00:29:29,653 --> 00:29:32,973 Speaker 4: bit a lot more on the academics than the social part. 649 00:29:33,093 --> 00:29:37,173 Speaker 4: Well arguably, but yeah, I mean, you really need to 650 00:29:37,213 --> 00:29:40,373 Speaker 4: be very you don't don't doing very well up to 651 00:29:40,413 --> 00:29:45,453 Speaker 4: the mark asper your class or your year that you're 652 00:29:45,453 --> 00:29:47,973 Speaker 4: in in those part of the world, and if you're not, 653 00:29:48,133 --> 00:29:52,373 Speaker 4: you're kind of really frown upon or loll down upon, 654 00:29:53,013 --> 00:29:55,893 Speaker 4: and they might be they might be saying that, well, 655 00:29:56,013 --> 00:29:57,933 Speaker 4: you need to pay a bit more attention all that stuff. 656 00:29:57,973 --> 00:29:59,813 Speaker 4: Where than New Zealand. That's a that's a good part 657 00:29:59,853 --> 00:30:03,613 Speaker 4: of the society or community that we kind of understand 658 00:30:03,613 --> 00:30:07,493 Speaker 4: that every child has got their own needs and that 659 00:30:07,653 --> 00:30:09,973 Speaker 4: they have to come up their own progress rate, which 660 00:30:10,013 --> 00:30:14,773 Speaker 4: we can help in some ways. But what we we should 661 00:30:14,773 --> 00:30:17,093 Speaker 4: we should help them, that's that's the main thing. So 662 00:30:17,693 --> 00:30:21,093 Speaker 4: again sorry repeating myself, but again, had we been in 663 00:30:21,173 --> 00:30:23,533 Speaker 4: other parts of the world where academic is a is 664 00:30:24,333 --> 00:30:27,493 Speaker 4: a big thing, we probably would have held him to 665 00:30:28,733 --> 00:30:31,133 Speaker 4: certain settings of school for about a year at. 666 00:30:31,173 --> 00:30:34,333 Speaker 2: Least, so you'd held him to what age before you 667 00:30:34,373 --> 00:30:35,853 Speaker 2: see him to school? A dollar. 668 00:30:37,653 --> 00:30:43,333 Speaker 4: I think if if I if I for for my child, 669 00:30:43,453 --> 00:30:46,213 Speaker 4: I probably would say probably six or seven, probably six 670 00:30:46,293 --> 00:30:46,653 Speaker 4: or seven. 671 00:30:47,213 --> 00:30:50,413 Speaker 2: And that is to help with the academic side of things. 672 00:30:51,053 --> 00:30:55,093 Speaker 4: No, that is to help overcome his anxiety and not 673 00:30:55,173 --> 00:30:58,293 Speaker 4: to make things worse, because okay, so why would why 674 00:30:58,293 --> 00:31:01,693 Speaker 4: did we send him to school here? Because we really 675 00:31:01,733 --> 00:31:04,413 Speaker 4: wanted to, We really wanted him to get up to 676 00:31:04,653 --> 00:31:10,453 Speaker 4: you know, better social skills and other people skilled and 677 00:31:10,493 --> 00:31:14,013 Speaker 4: all that sort of stuff. But if you you you, 678 00:31:14,053 --> 00:31:16,373 Speaker 4: if we would have been in other parts of the world, 679 00:31:16,973 --> 00:31:19,893 Speaker 4: these things kind of take a bit back seat. So 680 00:31:20,013 --> 00:31:23,653 Speaker 4: the academics take the first priority, and you need to 681 00:31:23,693 --> 00:31:25,813 Speaker 4: be very very up to the mark, very up to 682 00:31:25,853 --> 00:31:29,893 Speaker 4: the standard, and they those kind of things would probably 683 00:31:29,973 --> 00:31:33,493 Speaker 4: take would have taken a toll on him. That's my take. 684 00:31:34,493 --> 00:31:38,653 Speaker 2: Do you think that delaying, though, just pushes off the inevitable? 685 00:31:38,773 --> 00:31:41,253 Speaker 2: So inevitably at some point they're going to have to 686 00:31:41,333 --> 00:31:43,093 Speaker 2: go into a class with a lot of lot of 687 00:31:43,133 --> 00:31:45,453 Speaker 2: kids and they're going to have to be separated from 688 00:31:45,613 --> 00:31:50,653 Speaker 2: parents and experience that separation anxiety. So why is that 689 00:31:50,893 --> 00:31:52,933 Speaker 2: worse at five than it is at seven? 690 00:31:54,613 --> 00:31:58,333 Speaker 4: Okay, so I think with his age, he's definitely getting 691 00:31:58,373 --> 00:32:02,333 Speaker 4: a lot better. Like well, we'll hear me out on that. 692 00:32:02,413 --> 00:32:04,773 Speaker 4: He had been assessed being on the spectnus not on 693 00:32:04,813 --> 00:32:08,933 Speaker 4: the spectrum first of all, but he had very high 694 00:32:09,013 --> 00:32:12,933 Speaker 4: separation anxiety levels, very high, like so high. Like we 695 00:32:12,933 --> 00:32:14,973 Speaker 4: we all had a little bit of that when we 696 00:32:14,973 --> 00:32:17,733 Speaker 4: were going first day to school, like when we were kids. 697 00:32:17,773 --> 00:32:23,253 Speaker 4: But and I do understand those are genuine feelings, and 698 00:32:24,213 --> 00:32:27,413 Speaker 4: he is. He does try to control it, but he 699 00:32:27,613 --> 00:32:31,573 Speaker 4: cannot really. And with age, those kind of things are 700 00:32:31,653 --> 00:32:36,973 Speaker 4: settling a lot better. Of course, socializing and going out 701 00:32:37,213 --> 00:32:40,333 Speaker 4: and going to school and going to kindergarten. That had worked, 702 00:32:40,453 --> 00:32:44,853 Speaker 4: that had helped. But I feel, I personally feel what 703 00:32:45,053 --> 00:32:50,933 Speaker 4: I've seen and witness that aging definitely takes away those 704 00:32:51,013 --> 00:32:56,453 Speaker 4: kind of things, those kind of anxious feelings or uh 705 00:32:56,573 --> 00:33:01,053 Speaker 4: in in in yeah, in in intrusive thoughts or intrusive feelings. 706 00:33:01,453 --> 00:33:04,373 Speaker 4: So definitely when when the brain age is with time, 707 00:33:04,733 --> 00:33:07,453 Speaker 4: those kind of things that are very pronounced our young 708 00:33:07,533 --> 00:33:08,253 Speaker 4: age and. 709 00:33:08,733 --> 00:33:11,293 Speaker 2: Pays out, Yeah, and how was how was he doing there. 710 00:33:12,653 --> 00:33:16,093 Speaker 4: At the moment? He is quite good in terms of 711 00:33:16,093 --> 00:33:19,133 Speaker 4: what what how he was a few years ago? He 712 00:33:19,213 --> 00:33:22,933 Speaker 4: is ten years old at the moment. He is, by 713 00:33:23,013 --> 00:33:26,173 Speaker 4: the way, going to a camp, a school camp, which 714 00:33:26,613 --> 00:33:31,573 Speaker 4: again which was for a fortnight. Actually he was meant 715 00:33:31,613 --> 00:33:34,653 Speaker 4: to stay at night there, but he was not comfortable 716 00:33:36,013 --> 00:33:38,893 Speaker 4: and he said, well, I'm not going to go at 717 00:33:38,933 --> 00:33:40,773 Speaker 4: all if I had to, if I have to stay 718 00:33:40,813 --> 00:33:44,333 Speaker 4: antil the principal was good enough. He gave an option 719 00:33:44,493 --> 00:33:48,213 Speaker 4: that you could you could go back home after the evening, 720 00:33:48,453 --> 00:33:50,413 Speaker 4: and so he's kind of agreed that, okay, I'll go. 721 00:33:50,533 --> 00:33:54,293 Speaker 4: So those things they're still around, so he still kind 722 00:33:54,293 --> 00:33:58,733 Speaker 4: of wants to sleep around us. He does sleep in 723 00:33:58,813 --> 00:34:03,373 Speaker 4: his own room at times, but he definitely feels very 724 00:34:03,493 --> 00:34:05,973 Speaker 4: very anxious when you sleep on his own. 725 00:34:06,933 --> 00:34:10,053 Speaker 2: Think if you call it, I mean, it's complicated. I mean, 726 00:34:10,493 --> 00:34:13,252 Speaker 2: who knows what the answer is, But. 727 00:34:14,773 --> 00:34:17,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean case by case. You know, I think 728 00:34:17,293 --> 00:34:20,133 Speaker 3: you've given us a buzzubduller. And you know, there's a 729 00:34:20,133 --> 00:34:22,413 Speaker 3: couple of texts coming through, and granted there's a lot 730 00:34:22,453 --> 00:34:26,213 Speaker 3: of parents out there with very difficult situations with their children. 731 00:34:26,373 --> 00:34:28,293 Speaker 3: But you know, my point before, and I've got a 732 00:34:28,333 --> 00:34:33,373 Speaker 3: bit hot headed, was that the overall arching epidemic around 733 00:34:33,493 --> 00:34:37,172 Speaker 3: these issues. I just think you know that we could 734 00:34:37,213 --> 00:34:39,853 Speaker 3: have a separate topic about that, but we've got to 735 00:34:39,893 --> 00:34:42,013 Speaker 3: ask the question about where that comes into it in 736 00:34:42,093 --> 00:34:46,093 Speaker 3: terms of children being resilient and prepared for the world, 737 00:34:46,533 --> 00:34:49,573 Speaker 3: where perhaps some overthinking for some parents, not all. There 738 00:34:49,653 --> 00:34:51,732 Speaker 3: is some severe cases out there, no doubt about it, 739 00:34:51,773 --> 00:34:53,693 Speaker 3: but that overthinking might be plain into it. 740 00:34:53,973 --> 00:34:57,133 Speaker 2: This is what this mother is texting here. She's furious 741 00:34:57,173 --> 00:34:58,772 Speaker 2: about what you're saying. And then has listed a bunch 742 00:34:58,773 --> 00:35:01,133 Speaker 2: of things you didn't say, and so I mean you're 743 00:35:01,133 --> 00:35:03,293 Speaker 2: getting furious as something you've made up there text. 744 00:35:03,373 --> 00:35:05,853 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll read out part of that hopefully next That 745 00:35:06,013 --> 00:35:07,133 Speaker 3: is thirteen to two. 746 00:35:08,653 --> 00:35:13,373 Speaker 1: And Tyler Adams afternoons taking your calls on eight hundred eighty. 747 00:35:13,453 --> 00:35:15,933 Speaker 1: Where's the Skoda? Can you crack the goad? Please go 748 00:35:16,053 --> 00:35:18,053 Speaker 1: to codes every day news talks. 749 00:35:18,053 --> 00:35:19,173 Speaker 5: There'd be news. 750 00:35:19,013 --> 00:35:20,212 Speaker 3: Talks, there be ten to two. 751 00:35:20,413 --> 00:35:22,493 Speaker 2: Here's this text. I'm a mother of a child with 752 00:35:22,533 --> 00:35:26,013 Speaker 2: severe autism and global development delay, and I'm furious listen 753 00:35:26,253 --> 00:35:30,493 Speaker 2: to you reduce complex lifelong disabilities to parents not preparing 754 00:35:30,493 --> 00:35:35,813 Speaker 2: their children properly. We weren't talking about severe autism. We're 755 00:35:35,813 --> 00:35:38,652 Speaker 2: talking I feel I've got a lot of compassion for 756 00:35:38,693 --> 00:35:40,813 Speaker 2: people that are dealing with kids with severe autism. But 757 00:35:41,333 --> 00:35:45,413 Speaker 2: we can talk about kids generally without you saying that 758 00:35:45,413 --> 00:35:48,973 Speaker 2: that because your kid's got severe autism, that we can't 759 00:35:49,013 --> 00:35:51,613 Speaker 2: talk about kids that don't and how you deal with them. Yeah, 760 00:35:51,733 --> 00:35:54,293 Speaker 2: you know, feel for you, and I feel for your kid, 761 00:35:54,333 --> 00:35:56,093 Speaker 2: and I'm sure it's very very hard to deal with, 762 00:35:56,133 --> 00:35:58,493 Speaker 2: but that's not what we're talking about. We're not talking 763 00:35:58,533 --> 00:36:01,733 Speaker 2: about kids with severe autism. So if we can't have 764 00:36:01,813 --> 00:36:04,573 Speaker 2: that discussion because some people are dealing with a totally 765 00:36:04,573 --> 00:36:07,333 Speaker 2: different issue, then what are we supposed to do? Yeah, 766 00:36:07,653 --> 00:36:10,413 Speaker 2: so says my son was due to start school this term. 767 00:36:10,693 --> 00:36:12,652 Speaker 2: He cannot toilet himself, he cannot sit on the mat, 768 00:36:12,693 --> 00:36:14,933 Speaker 2: he cannot function in a mainstream classroom. Not because of 769 00:36:14,973 --> 00:36:17,533 Speaker 2: poor parenting and laziness, No one said that or lack 770 00:36:17,573 --> 00:36:20,013 Speaker 2: of effort, but because he is disabled, as my child, 771 00:36:20,053 --> 00:36:22,493 Speaker 2: one of the children you were talking about. No, you 772 00:36:22,573 --> 00:36:26,173 Speaker 2: spoke as if school readiness is purely a parenting fail. Yeah, no, 773 00:36:26,253 --> 00:36:29,293 Speaker 2: we didn't. That narrative is ignorant and harmful. Parents of 774 00:36:29,373 --> 00:36:34,453 Speaker 2: children with high special needs do everything. Therapy, specialist routines, advocacy, 775 00:36:34,573 --> 00:36:37,973 Speaker 2: endless appointments far beyond what parents will ever experience. We 776 00:36:38,053 --> 00:36:40,613 Speaker 2: do not get to opt out. We fight every single day. 777 00:36:40,853 --> 00:36:43,373 Speaker 2: There has been a significant rise in children with complex 778 00:36:43,413 --> 00:36:45,493 Speaker 2: needs in New Zealand and the system is overwhelmed. My 779 00:36:45,533 --> 00:36:47,853 Speaker 2: son will attend a specialist school, but we are currently 780 00:36:47,893 --> 00:36:51,333 Speaker 2: waiting for a place. Yes, and that must be very 781 00:36:51,413 --> 00:36:53,613 Speaker 2: very hard, and we have a lot of sympathy for you, 782 00:36:53,653 --> 00:36:56,413 Speaker 2: but that is absolutely not what we're talking about. 783 00:36:56,573 --> 00:36:57,173 Speaker 3: Very different. 784 00:36:57,453 --> 00:36:59,973 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean to say it again. We've got 785 00:37:00,013 --> 00:37:04,573 Speaker 2: to be able to have conversations about all children without 786 00:37:04,653 --> 00:37:08,253 Speaker 2: being told to shut up because someone with a special 787 00:37:08,573 --> 00:37:11,533 Speaker 2: problem is dealing with a totally different thing than what 788 00:37:11,533 --> 00:37:14,213 Speaker 2: we're talking about. Of Course, we're not talking about kids 789 00:37:14,213 --> 00:37:17,653 Speaker 2: with severe autism and read shooting them now. Of course 790 00:37:17,693 --> 00:37:20,493 Speaker 2: we're not talking about kids with disabilities a. 791 00:37:20,773 --> 00:37:23,613 Speaker 3: Severe cases absolutely, and we're not bringing you into the 792 00:37:23,693 --> 00:37:26,613 Speaker 3: situation in some sort of attacking manner. The far far 793 00:37:26,813 --> 00:37:29,013 Speaker 3: beyond it. But as you say, we can have a 794 00:37:29,053 --> 00:37:33,133 Speaker 3: conversation about the broad idea of starting kids later in 795 00:37:33,173 --> 00:37:35,333 Speaker 3: life in school and whether that is going to be 796 00:37:35,373 --> 00:37:37,773 Speaker 3: good for their long term future. But can you hear 797 00:37:37,813 --> 00:37:39,373 Speaker 3: from you? Oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is 798 00:37:39,373 --> 00:37:39,893 Speaker 3: a number to call. 799 00:37:39,973 --> 00:37:44,373 Speaker 1: Seven to two, Matt Heath Tylor Adams taking your calls 800 00:37:44,413 --> 00:37:47,093 Speaker 1: on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

I was about justice and everything. 976 00:46:03,533 --> 00:46:06,093 Speaker 13: So I fought my way. I had to find my 977 00:46:06,173 --> 00:46:09,293 Speaker 13: own way in life because there was no one out there, 978 00:46:09,413 --> 00:46:11,373 Speaker 13: you know. I mean I had aunties and they were 979 00:46:11,413 --> 00:46:14,653 Speaker 13: really good, and I lived with them for short times 980 00:46:14,853 --> 00:46:18,213 Speaker 13: and went to school from their places. But I missed 981 00:46:18,373 --> 00:46:22,013 Speaker 13: the first five years of getting social skills in kindergarten. 982 00:46:22,213 --> 00:46:26,973 Speaker 13: And my daughter, she had twelve sessions in kindergarten because 983 00:46:26,973 --> 00:46:32,573 Speaker 13: that was paperinger back in the seventies, and they had 984 00:46:32,573 --> 00:46:34,413 Speaker 13: a waiting list of eight hundred kids. 985 00:46:34,573 --> 00:46:39,053 Speaker 2: I mean there was yeah. Yeah, Well, thank you so 986 00:46:39,173 --> 00:46:42,293 Speaker 2: much for your call, Lola, and all the best. Sounds 987 00:46:42,293 --> 00:46:44,173 Speaker 2: like you had quite an interesting situation. 988 00:46:44,413 --> 00:46:44,613 Speaker 4: Yeah. 989 00:46:45,093 --> 00:46:48,493 Speaker 2: In kindergarten and Singapore it is quite different though, so 990 00:46:48,773 --> 00:46:52,013 Speaker 2: you may start school later, but it's very intense. It 991 00:46:52,013 --> 00:46:54,692 Speaker 2: would be what we describe as primary school. So when 992 00:46:54,693 --> 00:46:56,973 Speaker 2: you go to primary school now, it's not like you 993 00:46:57,013 --> 00:46:59,813 Speaker 2: go straight into hardcore academic stuff. You've got a lovely 994 00:46:59,893 --> 00:47:02,933 Speaker 2: teacher that's talking. You know, there's teaching you how to 995 00:47:02,973 --> 00:47:04,652 Speaker 2: go to the bathroom, where to put your shoes, put 996 00:47:04,693 --> 00:47:07,013 Speaker 2: stuff away. You're sitting on the mat getting stories. Kindergarten 997 00:47:07,013 --> 00:47:11,493 Speaker 2: and Singapore is very structured, three to four hours daily program, 998 00:47:11,533 --> 00:47:16,493 Speaker 2: heavily focused on building academic foundations in literacy and numeracy 999 00:47:16,533 --> 00:47:17,853 Speaker 2: to prepare for primary school. 1000 00:47:18,493 --> 00:47:20,613 Speaker 3: So bit more full on than playing with lego. 1001 00:47:20,813 --> 00:47:25,613 Speaker 2: Whilst you may still be called kindergarten or a like name. Yeah, 1002 00:47:25,653 --> 00:47:28,973 Speaker 2: it is very different. It is hardcore building you up 1003 00:47:29,013 --> 00:47:31,013 Speaker 2: for school and still part of the school system for 1004 00:47:31,053 --> 00:47:32,093 Speaker 2: academic achievement. 1005 00:47:32,173 --> 00:47:34,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, very different.

And you've won something. 1021 00:48:15,613 --> 00:48:18,093 Speaker 3: Fizzits you up for something exciting.

And because my freeing one 1024 00:48:21,653 --> 00:48:24,933 Speaker 2: of my best mates, Davy Feathers, he was going to 1025 00:48:24,933 --> 00:48:26,253 Speaker 2: school at the same time as me, we were on 1026 00:48:26,293 --> 00:48:28,693 Speaker 2: the throne together. I think I've still got a picture 1027 00:48:28,693 --> 00:48:28,893 Speaker 2: of it. 1028 00:48:29,133 --> 00:48:30,373 Speaker 3: Oh good, yeah, yeah. 1029 00:48:30,533 --> 00:48:32,573 Speaker 2: Actually that was a day after I whiped my pants 1030 00:48:32,613 --> 00:48:38,573 Speaker 2: at daycare and had to wear home these jeans. These 1031 00:48:38,613 --> 00:48:40,133 Speaker 2: pants were way too big for me, and so there's 1032 00:48:40,133 --> 00:48:41,413 Speaker 2: a petfortion around the other way. 1033 00:48:41,493 --> 00:48:44,373 Speaker 3: So you needed that king day more than anybody else. 1034 00:48:44,413 --> 00:48:46,253 Speaker 2: I didn't deserve to go on the throne. Actually, think 1035 00:48:46,293 --> 00:48:48,093 Speaker 2: about it that I whiped my pants the day before. 1036 00:48:47,933 --> 00:48:50,253 Speaker 3: Heads off to KINDI workers, yeah, and it was. 1037 00:48:50,213 --> 00:48:51,853 Speaker 2: Just too fun. We were playing King of the Castle 1038 00:48:52,053 --> 00:48:54,933 Speaker 2: giving with the kings, and I wasn't I was at 1039 00:48:54,933 --> 00:48:56,453 Speaker 2: the top and I wasn't willing to give up my 1040 00:48:56,493 --> 00:48:59,093 Speaker 2: spot at the top of the slide for all those 1041 00:48:59,133 --> 00:48:59,973 Speaker 2: dirty rascals. 1042 00:49:00,133 --> 00:49:01,333 Speaker 3: It's dedication, and so. 1043 00:49:01,293 --> 00:49:02,893 Speaker 2: I stayed up there so long I'll wed my pants. 1044 00:49:02,933 --> 00:49:04,573 Speaker 3: You knew what you were doing, Yeah, you knew what 1045 00:49:04,613 --> 00:49:05,573 Speaker 3: the punishment was going to be. 1046 00:49:06,453 --> 00:49:08,652 Speaker 2: I stand by the decision. It was worth it. That's 1047 00:49:08,693 --> 00:49:10,613 Speaker 2: worth it to keep that power just a little bit longer. 1048 00:49:11,333 --> 00:49:12,172 Speaker 3: Bruce, how are you? 1049 00:49:14,733 --> 00:49:18,773 Speaker 10: It's just so funny. Just give you my perspective on 1050 00:49:18,853 --> 00:49:23,333 Speaker 10: this education thing. I started out as a teacher many 1051 00:49:23,413 --> 00:49:26,093 Speaker 10: years ago, and I cut my teeth in traditional boys' 1052 00:49:26,093 --> 00:49:30,293 Speaker 10: schools like Auckland Grammar and those kinds of high schools 1053 00:49:30,293 --> 00:49:32,933 Speaker 10: where corporal punishment kept students in line. 1054 00:49:32,973 --> 00:49:34,853 Speaker 4: And thankfully that's gone. 1055 00:49:34,973 --> 00:49:38,613 Speaker 10: But I reknewed the registration through or four years ago, 1056 00:49:39,573 --> 00:49:41,493 Speaker 10: and I did a bit of relief in the Far 1057 00:49:41,693 --> 00:49:45,653 Speaker 10: North because the area I teach maths and science chronically short. 1058 00:49:46,453 --> 00:49:51,453 Speaker 10: I just couldn't believe what had happened. If I can 1059 00:49:51,453 --> 00:49:54,693 Speaker 10: give you a prime example, you go in the normal routine, 1060 00:49:55,173 --> 00:49:57,373 Speaker 10: sit down and get your books out, and there were 1061 00:49:57,413 --> 00:50:01,333 Speaker 10: two kids there who had headphones on in your computers open, 1062 00:50:02,613 --> 00:50:05,693 Speaker 10: and I went up to my you know what we're 1063 00:50:05,733 --> 00:50:06,613 Speaker 10: doing our handwriting? 1064 00:50:06,693 --> 00:50:07,093 Speaker 4: What's to go? 1065 00:50:08,373 --> 00:50:11,253 Speaker 10: Secondary kids that really struggle to read and write at 1066 00:50:11,333 --> 00:50:15,652 Speaker 10: year nine and ten nowadays. And they had a card 1067 00:50:15,693 --> 00:50:22,093 Speaker 10: on their table that said ADHD. And apparently that card 1068 00:50:22,133 --> 00:50:25,893 Speaker 10: gives them permission to not engage with what's going on, 1069 00:50:26,413 --> 00:50:31,813 Speaker 10: but to engage with a computer and headphones. And after that, 1070 00:50:32,013 --> 00:50:34,933 Speaker 10: I was quite mortified. At this day, they just seemed 1071 00:50:34,973 --> 00:50:37,213 Speaker 10: to be able to They had this permission card that 1072 00:50:37,373 --> 00:50:42,333 Speaker 10: allowed them to opt out of normal classroom routines. And 1073 00:50:42,533 --> 00:50:44,693 Speaker 10: I sort of dug and I found out what's happening 1074 00:50:45,773 --> 00:50:48,653 Speaker 10: is that these twelve thirty to forty year old kids 1075 00:50:49,173 --> 00:50:54,453 Speaker 10: whose parents get anxious because they display symptoms of ADHD, 1076 00:50:54,533 --> 00:50:59,293 Speaker 10: which in my opinion, every young person has, fidgity, restlessness 1077 00:50:59,373 --> 00:51:03,213 Speaker 10: up and down, quick eye movement, nervousness. Those are all 1078 00:51:03,493 --> 00:51:08,293 Speaker 10: symptoms of ADHD. And these students are given to diagnose 1079 00:51:09,533 --> 00:51:15,373 Speaker 10: from a child psychologist, giving them a tag of ADHD. Now, 1080 00:51:16,133 --> 00:51:22,693 Speaker 10: from what I understand, ADHD is a lifelong visibility. It's incurable, 1081 00:51:23,293 --> 00:51:27,693 Speaker 10: it's only treatable, and these kids with twelve thirty forty 1082 00:51:27,773 --> 00:51:32,893 Speaker 10: year olds whose brains are still developing, are being given 1083 00:51:32,933 --> 00:51:36,213 Speaker 10: this What I would call a get out of life card. 1084 00:51:36,813 --> 00:51:39,533 Speaker 10: And I saw it in the classroom where they have 1085 00:51:39,693 --> 00:51:43,333 Speaker 10: this card which gives them permission not to do what 1086 00:51:43,373 --> 00:51:45,853 Speaker 10: the rest of the class are doing because they've had 1087 00:51:45,853 --> 00:51:48,013 Speaker 10: a diagnosis of ADHD, and so. 1088 00:51:48,293 --> 00:51:50,213 Speaker 2: They're on their headphones. Are they listening to stuff on 1089 00:51:50,253 --> 00:51:51,453 Speaker 2: their headphones or are they y. 1090 00:51:53,133 --> 00:51:53,413 Speaker 5: On there. 1091 00:51:53,493 --> 00:51:55,773 Speaker 10: They've got their own headphones, they've got their own computer, 1092 00:51:56,813 --> 00:51:59,652 Speaker 10: and you can't constantly go and check to make sure 1093 00:51:59,653 --> 00:52:04,133 Speaker 10: they're on tasks and roach to students. And I've got 1094 00:52:04,133 --> 00:52:06,093 Speaker 10: a chorus from the other kids in the class who 1095 00:52:06,093 --> 00:52:09,293 Speaker 10: are aware of it, and they said, he's a DHD, sir. 1096 00:52:10,493 --> 00:52:13,253 Speaker 10: And they become used to having these kids in their 1097 00:52:13,333 --> 00:52:15,973 Speaker 10: class with this ADHD card. 1098 00:52:16,693 --> 00:52:19,893 Speaker 2: That just allows some wonder how much of it becomes 1099 00:52:19,933 --> 00:52:22,573 Speaker 2: a self fulfilling prophecy. You know, I don't know on 1100 00:52:22,613 --> 00:52:25,613 Speaker 2: these individual cases. But if you tell someone and there's 1101 00:52:25,653 --> 00:52:28,253 Speaker 2: no doubt that there is over diagnosis going on, I 1102 00:52:28,293 --> 00:52:30,773 Speaker 2: think everyone admits that now. So if you tell someone 1103 00:52:30,813 --> 00:52:34,133 Speaker 2: they've got a DHD and then you start treating them different, 1104 00:52:34,173 --> 00:52:37,493 Speaker 2: then they will become more and more different, and it 1105 00:52:37,653 --> 00:52:42,613 Speaker 2: can become somewhat of a you know, a self fulfilling prophecy, 1106 00:52:43,213 --> 00:52:46,653 Speaker 2: because there is there is truth to cognitive behavioral therapy 1107 00:52:46,813 --> 00:52:50,933 Speaker 2: right where you where you. You know, if someone's got 1108 00:52:50,973 --> 00:52:52,652 Speaker 2: a problem with something, you give them a lot of 1109 00:52:52,693 --> 00:52:54,253 Speaker 2: it and they get used to it, you know. I 1110 00:52:54,333 --> 00:52:57,093 Speaker 2: mean a very simple, simple way of looking at this. 1111 00:52:57,173 --> 00:52:59,053 Speaker 2: If you're scared of spiders, then you start showing the 1112 00:52:59,133 --> 00:53:01,853 Speaker 2: pictures of spiders, yes, and then the more, the more 1113 00:53:01,893 --> 00:53:04,333 Speaker 2: I fa they get with spiders over time. I talk 1114 00:53:04,413 --> 00:53:06,733 Speaker 2: to this woman at Oxford University for my block about this, 1115 00:53:06,893 --> 00:53:09,613 Speaker 2: and she was dealing with p with It was kind 1116 00:53:09,613 --> 00:53:11,293 Speaker 2: of controversial what she was doing, but she was dealing 1117 00:53:11,293 --> 00:53:15,933 Speaker 2: with people that had agrophobia and claustrophobia, and she was 1118 00:53:15,973 --> 00:53:20,093 Speaker 2: just hiffing them in a cupboard for fifteen minutes, padded covered, 1119 00:53:20,173 --> 00:53:22,853 Speaker 2: and when they came out there there because they hadn't died, 1120 00:53:22,933 --> 00:53:24,573 Speaker 2: they taught their brain that it was okay. 1121 00:53:24,733 --> 00:53:27,293 Speaker 3: Yes, that initial panic and then that dies down and 1122 00:53:27,293 --> 00:53:29,533 Speaker 3: your brain starts to rewire and say she would not 1123 00:53:29,573 --> 00:53:30,013 Speaker 3: in danger. 1124 00:53:30,173 --> 00:53:32,133 Speaker 2: To be fair, she didn't describe it like that, but 1125 00:53:33,093 --> 00:53:35,293 Speaker 2: her point was that you've got to prove to your 1126 00:53:35,293 --> 00:53:39,853 Speaker 2: brain that that that it's not going to kill you 1127 00:53:39,893 --> 00:53:41,853 Speaker 2: these things and the more you hide from them, the 1128 00:53:41,853 --> 00:53:43,853 Speaker 2: bigger they get, the bigger the problems they get. So 1129 00:53:44,173 --> 00:53:47,413 Speaker 2: I really feel for kids that if they're being incorrectly 1130 00:53:47,453 --> 00:53:49,973 Speaker 2: diagnosed with ADHD and then they're sitting in a class 1131 00:53:50,133 --> 00:53:53,213 Speaker 2: becoming different and being told that they're different, and we're 1132 00:53:53,253 --> 00:53:55,813 Speaker 2: told they've got this problem, and then you know, restricting 1133 00:53:55,813 --> 00:53:57,093 Speaker 2: their experience because of it. 1134 00:53:57,813 --> 00:54:01,333 Speaker 10: Well, I also thinks quite a bit of responsibility is 1135 00:54:01,373 --> 00:54:03,893 Speaker 10: sheeted home to the parents, because you know, these modern 1136 00:54:03,973 --> 00:54:07,293 Speaker 10: generation of Pearans just don't realize how hard parent it is. 1137 00:54:08,013 --> 00:54:10,493 Speaker 10: And they said, of oh, you know, I can't control them, 1138 00:54:10,493 --> 00:54:12,773 Speaker 10: and that's the worst thing a child can hear. So 1139 00:54:12,813 --> 00:54:17,172 Speaker 10: they rush off to a child psychologist. They describe the symptoms. Oh, 1140 00:54:17,293 --> 00:54:22,973 Speaker 10: you've got ADHD, and therefore you know, you've got these 1141 00:54:22,973 --> 00:54:27,172 Speaker 10: special exemptions. And the parents say, oh, thank goodness. And 1142 00:54:27,213 --> 00:54:29,772 Speaker 10: it also gives them a reason to sort of give 1143 00:54:29,773 --> 00:54:32,693 Speaker 10: them special treatment, like spending all their day on computers. 1144 00:54:32,733 --> 00:54:37,293 Speaker 10: And I find I'm coming across thirteen forteen year old children, 1145 00:54:37,533 --> 00:54:41,133 Speaker 10: students that can't write, but their deemed is very intelligent. 1146 00:54:41,373 --> 00:54:44,453 Speaker 10: They've spent their whole educational formative years on a keyboard. 1147 00:54:45,173 --> 00:54:48,293 Speaker 10: Their ability to even hold a pencil. The muscles in 1148 00:54:48,333 --> 00:54:50,973 Speaker 10: their hands are not formed to actually hold a pencil 1149 00:54:51,053 --> 00:54:54,212 Speaker 10: and write. And you know, that's why we're having all 1150 00:54:54,253 --> 00:54:58,933 Speaker 10: this drama with kids not being able to write properly, read, properly, spelled, 1151 00:54:58,973 --> 00:55:03,053 Speaker 10: properly because this generation now have been brought up on 1152 00:55:03,173 --> 00:55:08,293 Speaker 10: keyboards companies like Dell, which mass produced them and gave 1153 00:55:08,373 --> 00:55:13,893 Speaker 10: even the schools at bargain prices, schools grab them. Oh, technology, 1154 00:55:14,093 --> 00:55:17,533 Speaker 10: we're at the cutting edge of education and I think 1155 00:55:17,573 --> 00:55:22,013 Speaker 10: in years to come, this generation of teachers and educators 1156 00:55:22,253 --> 00:55:25,733 Speaker 10: are going to have to answer for putting keyboards and 1157 00:55:25,773 --> 00:55:29,413 Speaker 10: screens in front of our children and just forgetting what 1158 00:55:29,573 --> 00:55:31,212 Speaker 10: the basics of education are. 1159 00:55:32,053 --> 00:55:33,652 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you so much for your call, Bruce. 1160 00:55:33,773 --> 00:55:36,013 Speaker 3: Potentially a great call, Thank you very much. I mean 1161 00:55:36,053 --> 00:55:39,333 Speaker 3: it is You've got to be so careful with those diagnoses. 1162 00:55:39,453 --> 00:55:41,573 Speaker 3: And I know it's a complicated situation out there, and 1163 00:55:41,573 --> 00:55:43,853 Speaker 3: there's a lot of pearans at the extreme end of things, 1164 00:55:43,893 --> 00:55:48,573 Speaker 3: but when your carte blanche or cavalier about those diagnoses, 1165 00:55:48,613 --> 00:55:52,053 Speaker 3: you put that child on a tradictory in their life 1166 00:55:52,173 --> 00:55:55,333 Speaker 3: that they've got no control over. Sometimes that tradictory is 1167 00:55:55,373 --> 00:55:57,253 Speaker 3: the right thing. Sometimes it's not. You've just got to 1168 00:55:57,293 --> 00:55:58,093 Speaker 3: be so careful with it. 1169 00:55:58,373 --> 00:56:01,652 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's no doubt that there is real ADHD. 1170 00:56:02,053 --> 00:56:03,373 Speaker 2: The thing well, I mean, I don't know when I 1171 00:56:03,413 --> 00:56:07,652 Speaker 2: say there's no doubt, I assume. But there's people with 1172 00:56:07,693 --> 00:56:10,652 Speaker 2: serious problems. Absolutely, But I think I think we'd all 1173 00:56:10,653 --> 00:56:12,933 Speaker 2: agree that it's being over diagnosed. I guarantee I would 1174 00:56:12,933 --> 00:56:14,853 Speaker 2: have been diagnosed with ADHD as that's cool. 1175 00:56:14,893 --> 00:56:15,413 Speaker 3: I could see that. 1176 00:56:15,813 --> 00:56:16,733 Speaker 2: You can guarantee that. 1177 00:56:16,853 --> 00:56:17,013 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1178 00:56:17,133 --> 00:56:20,373 Speaker 2: In fact, when I was on Taskmaster at the TV show, 1179 00:56:20,533 --> 00:56:23,973 Speaker 2: there was psychologists, you know, messaging me sliding into my 1180 00:56:24,053 --> 00:56:26,573 Speaker 2: DMS to diagnose me with ADHD. 1181 00:56:27,133 --> 00:56:30,053 Speaker 3: That is telling Yeah, all right, beg very shortly. It 1182 00:56:30,133 --> 00:56:31,653 Speaker 3: is twenty six past. 1183 00:56:31,373 --> 00:56:38,893 Speaker 1: Two Matt Heathen, Tyler Adams afternoons call oh eight hundred 1184 00:56:38,893 --> 00:56:40,693 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty on News Talk. 1185 00:56:40,573 --> 00:56:42,293 Speaker 3: ZB twenty nine past two. 1186 00:56:43,213 --> 00:56:45,212 Speaker 2: Boy, there's so many texts coming through on those people 1187 00:56:45,253 --> 00:56:49,252 Speaker 2: are very very excited about it. Hi, guys here here, 1188 00:56:49,413 --> 00:56:51,573 Speaker 2: I agree these child therapists have a lot to answer for. 1189 00:56:51,773 --> 00:56:54,973 Speaker 2: My granddaughter was just play naughty for her parents. Mother 1190 00:56:55,013 --> 00:56:57,692 Speaker 2: started saying she was on the spectrum. Made me so mad. 1191 00:56:57,973 --> 00:57:00,893 Speaker 2: You can't say anything though, the world's gone crazy. Says 1192 00:57:01,013 --> 00:57:06,413 Speaker 2: an but this person says, oh my god, you cannot 1193 00:57:06,413 --> 00:57:10,172 Speaker 2: get an ADHD diagnosis easily. There is lengthy testing protocols 1194 00:57:10,173 --> 00:57:13,533 Speaker 2: completed by the child parents in school, done by psychiatrists. 1195 00:57:13,933 --> 00:57:16,413 Speaker 3: Make sure you are speaking your acts nice voice. 1196 00:57:17,133 --> 00:57:19,493 Speaker 2: That's what that's how the tips came through. Anyway you 1197 00:57:19,573 --> 00:57:22,573 Speaker 2: list finish up this topic, it seems likely that some children, 1198 00:57:23,093 --> 00:57:25,133 Speaker 2: you know, it seems possible, may benefit from extra time 1199 00:57:25,133 --> 00:57:27,573 Speaker 2: to mature before starting school. And look, we're not talking 1200 00:57:27,653 --> 00:57:29,933 Speaker 2: about people with severe autism or anything like that is 1201 00:57:29,973 --> 00:57:33,773 Speaker 2: a totally different subject. But the evidence suggests that any 1202 00:57:33,813 --> 00:57:39,013 Speaker 2: gains are short lived in delaying entry, and it can 1203 00:57:39,413 --> 00:57:43,373 Speaker 2: can simply postpone the necessary support adjustment because once you 1204 00:57:43,453 --> 00:57:45,413 Speaker 2: go to school, if you do have some problems, then 1205 00:57:45,973 --> 00:57:48,853 Speaker 2: often the schools are the best place to identify it. 1206 00:57:49,173 --> 00:57:51,693 Speaker 2: Got the resources because you're in a room with an expert, 1207 00:57:51,973 --> 00:57:54,293 Speaker 2: right and you've got the resources exactly as you say, 1208 00:57:54,293 --> 00:57:57,293 Speaker 2: to identify any problems. So you know, obviously it's up 1209 00:57:57,293 --> 00:57:58,853 Speaker 2: to the parents what they want to do with their kids. 1210 00:57:58,853 --> 00:58:01,173 Speaker 2: They're their kids. But I just think as long as 1211 00:58:01,173 --> 00:58:04,373 Speaker 2: you make sure it's not your anxiety levels and it's 1212 00:58:04,413 --> 00:58:07,653 Speaker 2: the kids anxiety levels, because facing a big challenge and 1213 00:58:07,653 --> 00:58:13,213 Speaker 2: coming out strong as what what makes humans great. Yep, 1214 00:58:13,413 --> 00:58:14,973 Speaker 2: you know that's what they've got to do all through 1215 00:58:14,973 --> 00:58:20,253 Speaker 2: your life. You're going to be face anxiety inducing situations 1216 00:58:20,333 --> 00:58:21,773 Speaker 2: and become stronger for facing them. 1217 00:58:21,893 --> 00:58:22,573 Speaker 3: Yeah, nicely. 1218 00:58:22,613 --> 00:58:24,573 Speaker 2: See that's when it doesn't stop. Starts when you're five, 1219 00:58:24,613 --> 00:58:25,293 Speaker 2: but it doesn't. 1220 00:58:25,093 --> 00:58:28,253 Speaker 3: Stop exactly right. Great discussion, Thank you very much everyone 1221 00:58:28,253 --> 00:58:30,413 Speaker 3: who texts and called on that one.

So this is a fascinating story. 1254 01:00:14,933 --> 01:00:17,573 Speaker 3: It's a christ Chuche couple. They found two hundred thousand 1255 01:00:17,653 --> 01:00:19,973 Speaker 3: bucks in the ceiling of a home. They bought the 1256 01:00:20,173 --> 01:00:22,253 Speaker 3: fighting through the courts to keep that money. So they 1257 01:00:22,253 --> 01:00:24,933 Speaker 3: found it and sealed stacks hidden in the insulation. They 1258 01:00:24,973 --> 01:00:27,333 Speaker 3: reported the cash to the police, who then came back 1259 01:00:27,333 --> 01:00:29,493 Speaker 3: and said the money should be forfeited because it was 1260 01:00:29,573 --> 01:00:33,293 Speaker 3: the proceeds of crime, probably probably from drug dealing. They 1261 01:00:33,333 --> 01:00:37,973 Speaker 3: didn't really know. So the High Courts hearing is underway 1262 01:00:38,053 --> 01:00:40,573 Speaker 3: as we speak, and the couple's lawyer, he said this 1263 01:00:40,573 --> 01:00:42,813 Speaker 3: this morning. He's arguing that they should keep the money 1264 01:00:42,813 --> 01:00:45,573 Speaker 3: because they had no parts in the criminal activity and 1265 01:00:45,613 --> 01:00:49,253 Speaker 3: withholding the cash would discourage other people reporting similar fines 1266 01:00:49,293 --> 01:00:49,773 Speaker 3: in the future. 1267 01:00:50,093 --> 01:00:53,493 Speaker 2: Well, when I hear the story, I immediately think without justification, 1268 01:00:54,173 --> 01:00:56,813 Speaker 2: was it only two hundred thousand that they found? Yeah, 1269 01:00:56,853 --> 01:01:00,253 Speaker 2: where's the res and there would be a motivation now 1270 01:01:00,333 --> 01:01:02,933 Speaker 2: to report. I mean, if you're going to be dishonest, 1271 01:01:02,973 --> 01:01:04,893 Speaker 2: but not report to the police all the money you find, 1272 01:01:05,573 --> 01:01:07,253 Speaker 2: because if the police are going to say that's ours 1273 01:01:07,493 --> 01:01:11,213 Speaker 2: because it's the you know, it's probably ill gotten. They 1274 01:01:11,213 --> 01:01:13,053 Speaker 2: haven't proved that it's ill gotten. No, I mean they're 1275 01:01:13,053 --> 01:01:16,053 Speaker 2: just assuming because you find a two hundred thousand who. 1276 01:01:16,013 --> 01:01:19,293 Speaker 3: Knows, maybe someone scrowling it away. Honestly, yep, could have 1277 01:01:19,293 --> 01:01:20,213 Speaker 3: been their life savings. 1278 01:01:20,253 --> 01:01:23,693 Speaker 2: It does seem massively unlikely. But my thing on this 1279 01:01:23,773 --> 01:01:25,773 Speaker 2: is why do the police and the crown have any 1280 01:01:25,773 --> 01:01:28,933 Speaker 2: more right to it than this couple? Because, as I 1281 01:01:28,973 --> 01:01:32,373 Speaker 2: said to you before, Tyler, the couple have done nothing wrong. 1282 01:01:32,613 --> 01:01:35,213 Speaker 2: They've just found some money in their house. They didn't 1283 01:01:35,893 --> 01:01:37,733 Speaker 2: they weren't part of the drug dealing and they also 1284 01:01:37,773 --> 01:01:40,853 Speaker 2: weren't part of drug enforcement. So if anything, the crown 1285 01:01:41,053 --> 01:01:44,933 Speaker 2: have failed by this money existing because they've allowed within 1286 01:01:45,053 --> 01:01:47,613 Speaker 2: society for a drug dealer to make two hundred thousand 1287 01:01:47,613 --> 01:01:48,653 Speaker 2: dollars and hide it in a house. 1288 01:01:48,693 --> 01:01:50,573 Speaker 3: It's an interesting point. 1289 01:01:50,813 --> 01:01:51,773 Speaker 2: So why does it go to the crown? 1290 01:01:51,853 --> 01:01:54,053 Speaker 3: Yep, no blame on the couple, but a blame to 1291 01:01:54,093 --> 01:01:54,493 Speaker 3: the police. 1292 01:01:54,853 --> 01:01:58,173 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean, would this just stop you? You know, 1293 01:01:58,253 --> 01:02:02,653 Speaker 2: does this encourage people not to bring it into the police? 1294 01:02:02,853 --> 01:02:06,333 Speaker 2: I think in most countries, right, I know in Miror. 1295 01:02:06,373 --> 01:02:09,613 Speaker 2: I believe in America actually that you know you do 1296 01:02:09,693 --> 01:02:10,453 Speaker 2: keep some of it? 1297 01:02:11,253 --> 01:02:14,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, you need to get a reward for doing the 1298 01:02:14,373 --> 01:02:17,693 Speaker 3: right thing. This is my thoughts obviously, but I think 1299 01:02:17,693 --> 01:02:19,693 Speaker 3: there's an argument to be made for find as keepers 1300 01:02:19,773 --> 01:02:21,853 Speaker 3: that if you find it you've had nothing to do 1301 01:02:21,893 --> 01:02:25,733 Speaker 3: with any ill gotten gains, then you should get to keep. 1302 01:02:25,573 --> 01:02:27,973 Speaker 2: It because it might be evidence for the police as 1303 01:02:27,973 --> 01:02:31,173 Speaker 2: well and an investigation. It might crack open a lead. Right, 1304 01:02:31,293 --> 01:02:35,293 Speaker 2: So you want you want people to be to be 1305 01:02:35,333 --> 01:02:37,653 Speaker 2: coming forward with this kind of stuff, don't you. Yeah? 1306 01:02:37,693 --> 01:02:38,133 Speaker 3: Exactly. 1307 01:02:38,453 --> 01:02:40,053 Speaker 2: I mean it's pretty if you say you're just going 1308 01:02:40,053 --> 01:02:41,893 Speaker 2: to take it all, then people are definitely going to 1309 01:02:41,933 --> 01:02:44,053 Speaker 2: think twice. I mean, I still think you should bring 1310 01:02:44,093 --> 01:02:46,493 Speaker 2: it in. I mean I would just because I figured 1311 01:02:46,493 --> 01:02:48,733 Speaker 2: that if two hundred thousand dollars goes missing in christ 1312 01:02:48,773 --> 01:02:52,093 Speaker 2: Church and it's cash and it's more likely criminals involved, 1313 01:02:52,573 --> 01:02:55,213 Speaker 2: then they want to come back and get it. 1314 01:02:55,293 --> 01:02:57,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, you need the police on your side, just a 1315 01:02:57,053 --> 01:03:00,733 Speaker 3: case they come and knock on your door and say, there's. 1316 01:03:00,493 --> 01:03:02,613 Speaker 2: Not too many people that can lose two hundred thousand 1317 01:03:02,613 --> 01:03:08,213 Speaker 2: dollars without them getting in trouble or knowing about it, right, Yeah. 1318 01:03:08,373 --> 01:03:10,253 Speaker 3: Would there be a monetary value, Let's say, I mean 1319 01:03:10,253 --> 01:03:11,973 Speaker 3: two hundred thousand dollars a lot of money and there's 1320 01:03:11,973 --> 01:03:14,253 Speaker 3: that risk associated there with the drug dealers coming back 1321 01:03:14,253 --> 01:03:16,933 Speaker 3: and wanting there two hundred k. But say you found 1322 01:03:16,973 --> 01:03:19,093 Speaker 3: one hundred dollars on the street, you just walk in, 1323 01:03:19,373 --> 01:03:22,973 Speaker 3: walk into work, you find a hundred bucks, You take it, 1324 01:03:23,053 --> 01:03:26,693 Speaker 3: you pocket it. Would you go and walk down to 1325 01:03:26,733 --> 01:03:28,293 Speaker 3: the police station and say, hey, I found a hundred 1326 01:03:28,333 --> 01:03:30,413 Speaker 3: bucks yere just in case anyone comes through looking for 1327 01:03:30,453 --> 01:03:34,893 Speaker 3: the hundred dollars, or would you keep it?

No wallet, just cash flying around. 1332 01:03:41,613 --> 01:03:46,693 Speaker 2: Right, because in you know, traditionally the cash in the 1333 01:03:46,733 --> 01:03:48,973 Speaker 2: wallet was the price for returning it. 1334 01:03:49,053 --> 01:03:52,253 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yeah, that's the ru right.

No one knows for sure. 1413 01:07:25,493 --> 01:07:27,893 Speaker 2: The High Court judge noted some countries return a portion 1414 01:07:28,013 --> 01:07:31,213 Speaker 2: of found drug money.

If you knew, Chris, that that you found 1416 01:07:34,773 --> 01:07:36,773 Speaker 2: the two hundred, that that the police are going to 1417 01:07:36,813 --> 01:07:39,213 Speaker 2: go investigate it, but you'll get I don't know twenty 1418 01:07:39,213 --> 01:07:42,613 Speaker 2: five would would that Would that encourage you to take 1419 01:07:42,653 --> 01:07:45,053 Speaker 2: it into the police rather than selling the house and 1420 01:07:45,053 --> 01:07:45,733 Speaker 2: taking the money. 1421 01:07:45,893 --> 01:07:49,653 Speaker 6: Yes, but it would say for example, if I knew 1422 01:07:49,933 --> 01:07:52,093 Speaker 6: I bought a house and I'm living there, and then 1423 01:07:52,133 --> 01:07:53,893 Speaker 6: my nates told me it used to be a tiny 1424 01:07:54,013 --> 01:07:58,573 Speaker 6: house or whatever, and I found the money, I would 1425 01:07:59,333 --> 01:08:01,893 Speaker 6: then say to them, all right, this was probably a 1426 01:08:01,893 --> 01:08:05,533 Speaker 6: bit of a catch if there was guaranteed reward for me, 1427 01:08:06,173 --> 01:08:08,653 Speaker 6: or I might be snacking and just give half of it, 1428 01:08:08,773 --> 01:08:11,413 Speaker 6: not that you know police are listening. You know, I'm saying, 1429 01:08:11,533 --> 01:08:12,333 Speaker 6: just test the waters. 1430 01:08:12,493 --> 01:08:14,053 Speaker 3: Just give them fifty k and see what they do 1431 01:08:14,133 --> 01:08:14,413 Speaker 3: with it. 1432 01:08:14,893 --> 01:08:18,693 Speaker 2: The interesting thing is nowadays, Chris, the interesting thing is 1433 01:08:18,733 --> 01:08:21,653 Speaker 2: if you tried to spend two hundred thousand in cash, 1434 01:08:21,813 --> 01:08:23,773 Speaker 2: so it didn't you leave any record as soon as 1435 01:08:23,773 --> 01:08:25,333 Speaker 2: you put it in your bank, then obviously it leads 1436 01:08:25,412 --> 01:08:27,812 Speaker 2: leads a record someone that's just going around and throwing 1437 01:08:27,893 --> 01:08:31,812 Speaker 2: hundi's around. I think you'd start to grab people's attention 1438 01:08:31,973 --> 01:08:34,772 Speaker 2: right because no one's spending cash anymore. I think the 1439 01:08:34,772 --> 01:08:36,692 Speaker 2: police would be like, you'd probably come up on the 1440 01:08:36,692 --> 01:08:40,772 Speaker 2: police's radar as someone that's, you know, up to something dodgy. 1441 01:08:41,853 --> 01:08:43,612 Speaker 6: You know, that's why you do what they call the 1442 01:08:43,692 --> 01:08:46,812 Speaker 6: pokeing machine cleaning. So you put one hundred bucks in 1443 01:08:47,293 --> 01:08:49,053 Speaker 6: and then you tap wind and you take it out, 1444 01:08:49,093 --> 01:08:50,452 Speaker 6: and you keep the receipts for that win. 1445 01:08:52,053 --> 01:08:57,452 Speaker 3: You've thought this through, Chris, the whole nation?

It's not the old days where 1468 01:10:02,452 --> 01:10:07,772 Speaker 15: they had death duties or people going into hospital care 1469 01:10:08,013 --> 01:10:12,372 Speaker 15: or you know, means tested from winds or whatever it 1470 01:10:12,412 --> 01:10:16,213 Speaker 15: is you don't know, or hiding it from members of 1471 01:10:16,213 --> 01:10:19,492 Speaker 15: the family or Yeah. 1472 01:10:18,933 --> 01:10:20,973 Speaker 2: Because we don't really know what the cash looked like, 1473 01:10:21,333 --> 01:10:23,132 Speaker 2: do we. If it was it was a bit older, 1474 01:10:23,253 --> 01:10:26,772 Speaker 2: it was it was screwed up, you know, like it 1475 01:10:26,812 --> 01:10:29,293 Speaker 2: could be someone just mowing lawns while they're on the 1476 01:10:29,372 --> 01:10:29,772 Speaker 2: doll for. 1477 01:10:31,492 --> 01:10:32,812 Speaker 3: I don't know, for years. 1478 01:10:33,933 --> 01:10:36,412 Speaker 15: Oh, you don't know if if it was old enough 1479 01:10:36,532 --> 01:10:39,212 Speaker 15: that the notes would be collector's items, wouldn't they. 1480 01:10:39,492 --> 01:10:42,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, because we're all we're all imagining it's beautiful houndis 1481 01:10:42,973 --> 01:10:46,093 Speaker 2: fresh Hondis in a briefcase or something. But it could 1482 01:10:46,133 --> 01:10:48,812 Speaker 2: just be like a stinky old pile of screwed up 1483 01:10:49,093 --> 01:10:50,492 Speaker 2: tens from ages ago. 1484 01:10:51,452 --> 01:10:53,772 Speaker 15: You don't know when the house was built or anything. 1485 01:10:53,772 --> 01:10:56,013 Speaker 15: You haven't heard anything. So so it would just be 1486 01:10:56,053 --> 01:10:58,852 Speaker 15: a legal argument because if you buy something and you 1487 01:10:58,973 --> 01:11:02,333 Speaker 15: found a gold ring or something like that in the house, 1488 01:11:02,372 --> 01:11:06,173 Speaker 15: that would be yours. And if you if a tenant leaves, 1489 01:11:06,213 --> 01:11:08,812 Speaker 15: I think they had so many months, don't they claim 1490 01:11:09,652 --> 01:11:11,333 Speaker 15: what they left behind or something. 1491 01:11:11,893 --> 01:11:15,732 Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you buy on a deceased state, then 1492 01:11:16,412 --> 01:11:18,333 Speaker 2: often it's just everything in the house, isn't it. 1493 01:11:19,013 --> 01:11:19,452 Speaker 16: Yeah. 1494 01:11:19,532 --> 01:11:22,492 Speaker 2: You know a friend of mine he bought a house 1495 01:11:23,213 --> 01:11:26,333 Speaker 2: and ended up finding hundreds of thousands of dollars worth 1496 01:11:26,412 --> 01:11:31,293 Speaker 2: gold in it, holy and and ice cream containers. 1497 01:11:32,053 --> 01:11:34,772 Speaker 3: That's a great vine in the garage. Yeah, that is 1498 01:11:34,853 --> 01:11:37,612 Speaker 3: Jackpot handed them to the police. 1499 01:11:37,372 --> 01:11:40,893 Speaker 2: He was It got incredibly complicated because the body was 1500 01:11:40,933 --> 01:11:43,372 Speaker 2: found in the backyard as well, and so the police 1501 01:11:43,412 --> 01:11:46,253 Speaker 2: were massively involved in the whole situation. But because it 1502 01:11:46,293 --> 01:11:49,933 Speaker 2: was a diseased thing, my understanding that he got to 1503 01:11:50,013 --> 01:11:52,412 Speaker 2: keep the value of the gold. But it was a 1504 01:11:52,492 --> 01:11:55,013 Speaker 2: very complicated case. It made the news. But you know, 1505 01:11:55,333 --> 01:11:58,293 Speaker 2: one point he was like, this is amazing because we've 1506 01:11:58,612 --> 01:12:00,333 Speaker 2: bought this house and now we've found all this money 1507 01:12:00,333 --> 01:12:01,972 Speaker 2: and it so it's a lot easier paying the mortgage 1508 01:12:01,973 --> 01:12:04,572 Speaker 2: because it' quite a lot of value in gold. Next thing, 1509 01:12:04,572 --> 01:12:07,852 Speaker 2: the body turns up God, and then the house is 1510 01:12:07,853 --> 01:12:13,012 Speaker 2: basically CSI scene with heaps of cops sticking up the backyard. 1511 01:12:13,053 --> 01:12:15,253 Speaker 3: It really taints that fine, doesn't it.

So I 1532 01:13:14,333 --> 01:13:17,213 Speaker 3: started off saying tour to France, and then I think 1533 01:13:17,293 --> 01:13:21,412 Speaker 3: tour de France, because is it kind of offensive if 1534 01:13:21,452 --> 01:13:23,412 Speaker 3: I try and put on a French accent for the 1535 01:13:23,532 --> 01:13:24,253 Speaker 3: France part. 1536 01:13:25,452 --> 01:13:26,972 Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think I think you would 1537 01:13:27,013 --> 01:13:33,372 Speaker 2: say tour de France France, so no role in the France. 1538 01:13:33,692 --> 01:13:34,892 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's beautiful. 1539 01:13:34,893 --> 01:13:37,452 Speaker 2: That's how I'd say it to France. But but someone 1540 01:13:37,492 --> 01:13:40,572 Speaker 2: that's done more French than me might might be able to, 1541 01:13:41,452 --> 01:13:44,253 Speaker 2: you know, come in with a pronunciation guide there. I 1542 01:13:44,333 --> 01:13:46,173 Speaker 2: just think you sound like a bit of an idiot 1543 01:13:46,173 --> 01:13:48,812 Speaker 2: when you say tour de France, France. 1544 01:13:49,492 --> 01:13:50,372 Speaker 3: That's very key with you. 1545 01:13:52,053 --> 01:13:54,333 Speaker 2: But then again, people know exactly what you're talking about. 1546 01:13:54,412 --> 01:13:56,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, tour de France. 1547 01:13:56,412 --> 01:14:01,612 Speaker 2: Love to go on the tour de France. Yeah, I 1548 01:14:01,652 --> 01:14:03,612 Speaker 2: see what you're doing that because like, if you attempt 1549 01:14:03,652 --> 01:14:07,333 Speaker 2: a pronunciation and French especially, you just sound like you're 1550 01:14:07,333 --> 01:14:10,293 Speaker 2: trying to be more sophisticated than you are. 1551 01:14:10,412 --> 01:14:12,492 Speaker 3: You can go horribly wrong, which has happened to me 1552 01:14:12,532 --> 01:14:14,732 Speaker 3: in the past. Right beg to our discussion about this 1553 01:14:15,053 --> 01:14:17,972 Speaker 3: cash the christ which couple have found two hundred thousand bucks? 1554 01:14:18,013 --> 01:14:19,812 Speaker 3: Would you give it back or would you tell the cops? 1555 01:14:20,093 --> 01:14:22,612 Speaker 2: Is this true? Last year when talking about this two 1556 01:14:22,692 --> 01:14:25,333 Speaker 2: hundred thousand Cape couple, they said an article the cereals 1557 01:14:25,333 --> 01:14:28,612 Speaker 2: had been accounted for at an ATM or bank. 1558 01:14:28,933 --> 01:14:31,293 Speaker 3: That's not information in the story. That would be very 1559 01:14:31,333 --> 01:14:32,733 Speaker 3: interesting if that's the case. 1560 01:14:33,612 --> 01:14:35,412 Speaker 2: Because I mean, how do you get two hundred thousand 1561 01:14:35,412 --> 01:14:36,333 Speaker 2: dollars out of an ATM? 1562 01:14:37,452 --> 01:14:39,532 Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's a max of a thousand, isn't it, 1563 01:14:39,973 --> 01:14:42,532 Speaker 3: So you've got to do it two hundred times two 1564 01:14:42,572 --> 01:14:45,732 Speaker 3: hundred different aightms. That would get flagg pretty quick. 1565 01:14:46,772 --> 01:14:50,452 Speaker 2: I guess maybe if you I guess if you're selling 1566 01:14:50,572 --> 01:14:53,973 Speaker 2: I mean, this is massive speculation, I'll research it. But 1567 01:14:54,013 --> 01:14:57,372 Speaker 2: if you're selling drugs, then people are probably getting the 1568 01:14:57,372 --> 01:15:00,652 Speaker 2: money out of an ATM, and say if it's look, 1569 01:15:00,812 --> 01:15:02,812 Speaker 2: I know absolutely nothing. I don't know what drugs they 1570 01:15:02,812 --> 01:15:04,812 Speaker 2: were selling at all, but say if it was something 1571 01:15:04,853 --> 01:15:07,133 Speaker 2: like cocaine, right then people are going to be having 1572 01:15:07,173 --> 01:15:10,812 Speaker 2: to get out, you know, hundreds of dollars to pay 1573 01:15:10,853 --> 01:15:12,852 Speaker 2: for them. So every time that money comes out, you'd 1574 01:15:12,893 --> 01:15:15,253 Speaker 2: think there would be an ATM record for it. 1575 01:15:15,372 --> 01:15:17,572 Speaker 3: Yeah, that would make a lot of sense. Yeah, you 1576 01:15:17,572 --> 01:15:19,452 Speaker 3: can't swipe your credit card if you want conain I 1577 01:15:19,532 --> 01:15:20,453 Speaker 3: have something total. 1578 01:15:20,293 --> 01:15:23,293 Speaker 2: And so can they match it that up with, you know, 1579 01:15:23,372 --> 01:15:25,333 Speaker 2: like serial numbers that they marked. I wonder. 1580 01:15:25,492 --> 01:15:27,812 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good question, you know, are they recorded? 1581 01:15:28,293 --> 01:15:30,492 Speaker 3: Makes sense? But nineteen nine two, if you work in banking, 1582 01:15:31,412 --> 01:15:33,572 Speaker 3: t Bowe, we've got about forty seconds, mate, what are 1583 01:15:33,572 --> 01:15:34,732 Speaker 3: you reckon about this?

I will note just quickly 1597 01:16:17,812 --> 01:16:20,293 Speaker 3: in the story the judge and the court hearings ongoing 1598 01:16:20,572 --> 01:16:22,692 Speaker 3: did say in a number of other countries when people 1599 01:16:22,692 --> 01:16:24,612 Speaker 3: had found drug money, a percentage of the cash could 1600 01:16:24,612 --> 01:16:26,933 Speaker 3: be returned to them. So whether we follow suit, and 1601 01:16:27,013 --> 01:16:27,652 Speaker 3: that's a big question. 1602 01:16:27,772 --> 01:16:29,572 Speaker 2: I just don't know where the crown gets it. You know, 1603 01:16:29,812 --> 01:16:31,732 Speaker 2: it was their job to stop the drug dealing in 1604 01:16:31,772 --> 01:16:33,692 Speaker 2: the first place. They've failed to do that.

So we want 1614 01:16:55,053 --> 01:16:58,572 Speaker 3: to talk about midlife crises. There's an article in the 1615 01:16:58,572 --> 01:17:02,412 Speaker 3: Herald right now. It is by psychologist and author Frank 1616 01:17:02,492 --> 01:17:06,212 Speaker 3: talia So his argument that midlife crises are wrongly treated 1617 01:17:06,253 --> 01:17:09,133 Speaker 3: as a joke when in reality they steam from profound 1618 01:17:09,253 --> 01:17:14,012 Speaker 3: psychological challenges he says, tied to aging, mortality, loss of purpose, 1619 01:17:14,492 --> 01:17:18,053 Speaker 3: and a youth obsessed culture. I mean midlife crisis. I 1620 01:17:18,053 --> 01:17:22,012 Speaker 3: didn't know this. The term was coined by Canadian psycho 1621 01:17:22,293 --> 01:17:26,532 Speaker 3: analyst Elliott Jaques in nineteen sixties. Before then, nobody was 1622 01:17:26,572 --> 01:17:30,452 Speaker 3: talking about midlife crises. But apparently it's also been afflicted 1623 01:17:30,492 --> 01:17:34,253 Speaker 3: by the likes of Odysseus, apparently he had a midlife crisis, Dante, 1624 01:17:34,412 --> 01:17:37,532 Speaker 3: and also Carl Young. I mean, I could see well 1625 01:17:37,572 --> 01:17:40,892 Speaker 3: as Odysseus taking off and as we ship to Troy. 1626 01:17:41,053 --> 01:17:45,133 Speaker 3: Was that a midlife crisis? Isn't it? 1627 01:17:45,612 --> 01:17:45,692 Speaker 17: Just? 1628 01:17:46,692 --> 01:17:50,093 Speaker 2: I questioned what they existed? I think, when are you're 1629 01:17:50,093 --> 01:17:53,172 Speaker 2: not in crisis in your life? There's a midlife crisis? 1630 01:17:53,173 --> 01:17:55,852 Speaker 2: Don't people just go from you know, people at different 1631 01:17:55,853 --> 01:17:57,253 Speaker 2: times have different crisises. 1632 01:17:57,452 --> 01:17:57,652 Speaker 4: Yep. 1633 01:17:57,732 --> 01:18:00,692 Speaker 2: And there's all kinds of different types of crises. And 1634 01:18:00,692 --> 01:18:04,213 Speaker 2: then midlight crises is just, in my opinion, an envy 1635 01:18:04,293 --> 01:18:08,013 Speaker 2: ridden excuse to hassle men who finally enough money to 1636 01:18:08,013 --> 01:18:09,652 Speaker 2: buy the they liked when they were kids, but they 1637 01:18:09,652 --> 01:18:12,173 Speaker 2: didn't have enough money or that you know, or their 1638 01:18:12,213 --> 01:18:13,973 Speaker 2: kids were there, so it was ridiculous to buy that 1639 01:18:14,013 --> 01:18:16,052 Speaker 2: cool car. And then you go, he's having a midlife crisis. 1640 01:18:16,093 --> 01:18:17,652 Speaker 2: Maybe he just always wanted that car and now he's 1641 01:18:17,652 --> 01:18:19,692 Speaker 2: got the money to buy it. What's wrong with that? 1642 01:18:19,933 --> 01:18:21,852 Speaker 3: Yep? Again, a lot of logic in that that you've 1643 01:18:21,893 --> 01:18:24,013 Speaker 3: spent the last sixty years of your life doing the 1644 01:18:24,053 --> 01:18:26,772 Speaker 3: things that you need to that responsibility looking after your family. 1645 01:18:26,812 --> 01:18:29,852 Speaker 3: Finally you've found from some financial freedom and maybe some 1646 01:18:29,973 --> 01:18:32,173 Speaker 3: freedom from work, and you buy that do Caddy that 1647 01:18:32,213 --> 01:18:34,452 Speaker 3: you always want. But what do you get after all 1648 01:18:34,532 --> 01:18:38,652 Speaker 3: that effort and dedication. You get laughed at, say Joe, 1649 01:18:39,093 --> 01:18:41,532 Speaker 3: yeah that motorbike. You look like a numpty. It's a 1650 01:18:41,572 --> 01:18:42,452 Speaker 3: midlife crisis. 1651 01:18:43,013 --> 01:18:45,253 Speaker 2: It's just a way to beat up on successful men. 1652 01:18:45,572 --> 01:18:47,572 Speaker 2: I think that is. So you've got a situation where 1653 01:18:47,612 --> 01:18:50,652 Speaker 2: you go through life. It's going great with the kids 1654 01:18:50,692 --> 01:18:53,253 Speaker 2: and the wife, and it's everything you've worked really, really hard. 1655 01:18:53,692 --> 01:18:56,652 Speaker 2: Then the kids move out and then mum and dad 1656 01:18:56,692 --> 01:18:58,772 Speaker 2: look at each other and go, who are you? You know, 1657 01:18:58,853 --> 01:19:01,173 Speaker 2: we've just been in the trenches with the kids. And 1658 01:19:01,213 --> 01:19:03,412 Speaker 2: then they divorce and then the guy goes on, I'm 1659 01:19:03,412 --> 01:19:06,372 Speaker 2: not feeling that happy because of the divorce. I might 1660 01:19:06,452 --> 01:19:08,932 Speaker 2: get a car, a nice car, And then they get 1661 01:19:08,973 --> 01:19:11,652 Speaker 2: the car, and then they meet another person and then 1662 01:19:11,652 --> 01:19:15,932 Speaker 2: everyone goes midlife crisis, you loser, and maybe you've lost 1663 01:19:15,973 --> 01:19:18,213 Speaker 2: your hair at the same time. And then then people 1664 01:19:18,253 --> 01:19:21,372 Speaker 2: ran into that like you're just a bald man and 1665 01:19:21,452 --> 01:19:23,172 Speaker 2: a fancy car with a new girlfriend. 1666 01:19:23,213 --> 01:19:24,612 Speaker 3: It's super tough on those fellas. 1667 01:19:24,812 --> 01:19:27,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, our midlife crisis is real O e. 1668 01:19:27,093 --> 01:19:29,892 Speaker 2: One hundred and eighty ten eighty And have you have 1669 01:19:29,973 --> 01:19:33,532 Speaker 2: you experienced one yourself? And or have you seen someone 1670 01:19:33,853 --> 01:19:38,293 Speaker 2: you know seeing one go through a midlife crisis? And 1671 01:19:38,333 --> 01:19:40,253 Speaker 2: how did that manifest? Just looking at where they say 1672 01:19:40,253 --> 01:19:43,372 Speaker 2: they are. This is the technical things to look out 1673 01:19:43,372 --> 01:19:48,292 Speaker 2: for for a midlife crisis. Persistent dissatisfaction despite external success. 1674 01:19:48,933 --> 01:19:50,812 Speaker 2: So does that mean you can't have a midlife crisis 1675 01:19:50,853 --> 01:19:52,173 Speaker 2: if you haven't been successful? 1676 01:19:53,372 --> 01:19:53,612 Speaker 3: Does? 1677 01:19:53,732 --> 01:19:53,932 Speaker 15: Yeah? 1678 01:19:54,692 --> 01:19:54,852 Speaker 11: Right? 1679 01:19:54,933 --> 01:20:00,052 Speaker 2: Okay, so success, heightened awareness of mortality, fear of aging, illness, 1680 01:20:00,093 --> 01:20:02,452 Speaker 2: or running out of time. And to be fair, midlife 1681 01:20:02,532 --> 01:20:04,892 Speaker 2: is considered anywhere between the age of forty and sixty five. 1682 01:20:04,933 --> 01:20:06,652 Speaker 2: So it's a big. It's a big. 1683 01:20:06,732 --> 01:20:07,652 Speaker 3: It's a back of your life. 1684 01:20:07,772 --> 01:20:11,892 Speaker 2: It's twenty five years loss of identity or purpose, especially 1685 01:20:11,893 --> 01:20:16,052 Speaker 2: after kids leave home or careers. Plateau ye, sudden urges 1686 01:20:16,133 --> 01:20:20,372 Speaker 2: for radical change, job, relationship, lifestyle without a clear pan plan. 1687 01:20:20,452 --> 01:20:25,452 Speaker 2: I mean, they're gonna happen anytime. Nostalgia and rumination, replaying 1688 01:20:25,492 --> 01:20:28,852 Speaker 2: past choices, what if, what if? Thinking that we all 1689 01:20:28,853 --> 01:20:32,412 Speaker 2: do this risk taking or impulsive behavior aimed at feeling 1690 01:20:32,452 --> 01:20:42,333 Speaker 2: alive again. Emotional volatility, irritability, anxiety, low mood or numbness, withdrawal, restlessness. Yep, 1691 01:20:42,812 --> 01:20:44,972 Speaker 2: it's just a we just describing the human condition here. 1692 01:20:45,213 --> 01:20:47,213 Speaker 2: I've been filling this most of my life, to be honest, 1693 01:20:47,572 --> 01:20:50,852 Speaker 2: pulling away from routines or relationships, comparison with younger people, 1694 01:20:50,893 --> 01:20:56,572 Speaker 2: and feeling invisible or obsolete. Physical pre preoccupation, health anxiety, 1695 01:20:56,612 --> 01:21:02,612 Speaker 2: body changes, aging appearance. Now. See, because when I decided 1696 01:21:02,612 --> 01:21:06,452 Speaker 2: to run a marathon last year, immediately all my friends 1697 01:21:06,532 --> 01:21:09,852 Speaker 2: just said midlife crisis.
