Ep 112) Community: integrating all ages and the benefits this has for everyone! 🤓

<p>Two Natural Ladies start with a celebration of Dolphin Day 🐬🐬</p> <p>Jo shares her journey watching of the TV show, ‘Old People’s home for 4 year olds’. The amazing results being seen in just two weeks. The noticeable difference with most of the elderly and the four year olds.</p> <p>The show is looking at Intergenerational support and helping the elderly stay young for longer and the young to create caring and empathy &nbsp;As we see in small communities, village life, all ages mix. A true community.</p> <p>In the show the elderly people are being physically and mentally pushed AND having fun. The connections being made between the two age groups is quite extraordinary. 💜</p> <p>Vicki and Jo then discuss segregating our children from an early age. Putting kids in a grade with just one age group. Is this normal? Natural? Children in multi age group settings learn leadership and many other skills</p> <p>As a young mum we can feel isolated and a heavy burden of responsibility .With a more integrated community there is support and everyone is involved – it’s what works!</p> <p>Trying to get a school to create a program can be difficult -When it’s unusual it’s hard to implement, when it’s normal its normal!</p> <p>This leads to a discussion about older people becoming more regimented with time AND Jo shares her parents groovy past with parties every weekend</p>
