1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 1: It's a woman Woody.

2
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 2: Podcast, minis.

3
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:04,760
Speaker 3: But when you're in a rush or just can't be

4
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 3: bothered listening to them blather on for half an hour.

5
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 2: Foods and I've set ourselves the challenge over the next

6
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 2: few weeks live on air with you. With you, guys,

7
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: we're trying to find an answer as to why people

8
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 2: can't talk about their mental health, talking specifically, you can't speak.

9
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: You struggle so much to talk about your mental health

10
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 2: when you are going through something with your mental health.

11
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 2: We want to make an app, hopefully called share my Mood.

12
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: That's the theme music from the podcast.

13
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: If you want to get the podcast, just search share

14
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 2: my Mood wherever you get your podcasts. You can catch

15
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,919
Speaker 2: up on the whole journey. But this is interactive. We're

16
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 2: making it with you, guys and loving all your input.

17
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 2: There's so many stories out here which are helping us

18
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 2: piece this together.

19
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: Woods.

20
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 2: Today, we're focusing on the disconnect between parents and kids,

21
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,599
Speaker 2: because you and I set out to make this for adults,

22
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: people in the workplace, your partner, et cetera. But as

23
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: soon as we scratch below the surface, we found out

24
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: yesterday that there are so many parents who have got

25
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 2: alternate ways of communicating with their kids kids.

26
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: I think we can all relate to the fact that

27
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: even if you haven't.

28
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: Got kids, when you were a kid, you didn't want

29
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 2: to talk to your parents are about your emotions.

30
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 1: That was the last thing you wanted to do.

31
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: So so many parents and kids all across Australia, it

32
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: turns out, have found other ways to talk to each other.

33
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 4: That's what we're hearing about right now. We've got Maddie here. Maddie,

34
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 4: so you're very well, thank you for the show.

35
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: So you're you're the child in this example.

36
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 4: How do you communicate with your parents?

37
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 5: Well, we've found a good way of just communicating with

38
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 5: stickers by a text message of Facebook.

39
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 3: Nice.

40
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 5: Right, Okay, So how often because you know what it means,

41
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 5: I'm in a good mood and because where the pigs

42
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 5: swearing means that I just want to be left alone?

43
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: Nice choice, oh, Maddie. Nice.

44
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 2: So you're saying there could be like a maybe like

45
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: a feature in the app where you can tell somebody

46
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: if you want to be left alone.

47
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, that sort of thing, or maybe even I'm busy,

48
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 5: come back later sort of nice.

49
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: So often that's the case because if your parent doesn't

50
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: know that, then they just assume the worst. But if

51
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: you've let them know, then I'm sure you feel a

52
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: lot more relaxed as well.

53
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 5: Exactly. The parents just wants to know that you're safe,

54
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 5: and you just kind of want your parent to leave

55
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 5: you alone. So as long as you've sent them something,

56
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 5: then it's all good.

57
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: Wow, that is elite. Thank you so much for the

58
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: court made. Would you use the app?

59
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 2: Would it help you if you had that the app?

60
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: Yes, it's wild.

61
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 5: It has an amazing idea and I'm so glad that

62
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 5: someone's finally doing this.

63
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: Good job, guys, Thanks Maddie, thank you so much. Great

64
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: to hear from you. We're going to go to Marina here.

65
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: Marina, you're a teacher, so you're interacting with kids all

66
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: the time.

67
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: What tools? What do you use in the classroom when

68
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: the kids can't talk? How else do you communicate?

69
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: So we have a system where we use the characters

70
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 3: from inside out.

71
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: Sorry, there's a Pixar movie where you've got all the

72
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,279
Speaker 2: different characters play different.

73
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: Emotions and different emotions, and it just takes the kids

74
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 3: through what those different emotions feel and how they deal

75
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 3: with those emotions and so in a classroom setting when

76
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 3: you have kids who can't really explain exactly what it is,

77
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 3: having that character that they can relate to makes it

78
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 3: really easy for them and then really easy for the

79
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: teacher to be able to work with them on that

80
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 3: and address why it is they're feeling that way.

81
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 1: Really, did you watch that movie with your class, Maria?

82
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: There is such a great movie.

83
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 3: We do watch it as part of the program that

84
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 3: we have because it's the school white thing, so that

85
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 3: way the kids are introduced to those characters and the emotions.

86
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: That way, it's brilliant, great stuff. Marina, Thanks for your help.

87
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: So, so you're saying like, if we could find out

88
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: a way that kids could you know, maybe if they

89
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: wake up in the morning or something, maybe.

90
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: If they super check in. H I use it as

91
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 3: a check in so after readless and lunch, you're walking

92
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 3: and put their name down to what they're feeling. And

93
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 3: so obviously if they've said that they're in the red

94
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 3: so they're angry, then I can address that and they

95
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: don't have to talk to me about it, but I

96
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 3: know that that's how they're feeling.

97
00:03:59,400 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: Marina.

98
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: I feel like you have had this same idea as

99
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 2: we have had, but just in a different place. I mean,

100
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: that's that's amazing that this actually is something that works

101
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: for you. Thank you so much for the call, so

102
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: so good to hear affirming for us. Lots of calls

103
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 2: coming here to you, guys. I was going to go

104
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 2: to Kylie with the last one. Here, Kylie, you've got.

105
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 6: Twins, yes, eleven year old twins.

106
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: Wow.

107
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: So we've heard from the kid, We've heard from a teacher.

108
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 2: So now from the parents side of things, how do

109
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 2: you how do they communicate with you when they're.

110
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 6: The twins have high functioning autism, so they do have

111
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 6: troubles with spelling, of course. So what we do is

112
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 6: we use Messenger on Facebook. They have their own phones

113
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 6: and they use Messenger. And my daughter can spell a

114
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 6: little bit better than my son. But sometimes, like I'll

115
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 6: get a Messenger message that'll come up with like a

116
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 6: poop or a thumbs down, like she's angry. I'll respond

117
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 6: back and say, what's the matter. And my son, because

118
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 6: he has more troubles with spelling, he'll use the little

119
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 6: microphone and he'll actually send me a little recorded message

120
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 6: thing you know, I'm upset, wow, telling me without actually

121
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 6: telling me to my face, and then I will respond

122
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 6: the same way by doing a little microphone back. Cool,

123
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 6: so I know that they don't want to see me,

124
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 6: so I will respond back and forth in their method.

125
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,799
Speaker 6: And if my daughter's writing to me, all right back,

126
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 6: and if my son's using the.

127
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 2: Most member him back for you, Kylie, Like, there's obviously

128
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 2: a phase there where you couldn't talk to them because

129
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 2: they were incapable of speaking about what was going on

130
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 2: with them. And I suppose, like, amazingly, this is going

131
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 2: to be relieving for a lot of people who are adults,

132
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: even who are depressed or anxious or you know themselves

133
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: have autism. Must have been incredibly relieving for you to

134
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 2: be able to find a medium where you weren't just

135
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: guessing what.

136
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: Was going on.

137
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I mean they're starting to as they're getting older.

138
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 6: It's sort of like year nine, nine and ten, and

139
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 6: now they're they're eleven years old, they're starting to express

140
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 6: themselves a lot better, whereas there was a lot of

141
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 6: frustration earlier years.

142
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have.

143
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 6: Their own phones.

144
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: They can communicate huge, Kylie.

145
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,799
Speaker 1: Another amazing example.

146
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: And funnily enough, though, like we're talking about kids here

147
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: who you know obviously struggle with their own mental illnesses

148
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 2: to communicate. This is remarkably similar to the system.

149
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: That you and I have.

150
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 2: Would's like when I'm feeling when I'm feeling depressed before

151
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 2: I come to work, I've got a way to send

152
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: you a text message.

153
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then we still don't talk about it.

154
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 4: But yeah, I find it really fascinating that we're learning

155
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: from the kids.

156
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: It's so funny that not much changes.

157
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 4: No, we're thirty, we're both over the edge of thirty,

158
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 4: but we're still like kids.

159
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,640
