Links don't open

I switched from Safari to Chrome on my iPhone because I thought it would be a good idea and because I was having issues with authentication on Safari since it would not remember sessions and was annoying to have to login over and over to the same site within 5 minutes of logging in. After all, I've been using Chrome on my computer for a long time. However, not a good idea to use Chrome on an iPhone. For starters, it's far slower than Safari. But then I discovered another issue with Chrome that to my surprise is not new. Clicking on most links just doesn't work and you have to try and try tapping until it decides to work. I traced this issue back to 2020 and it seems Google hasn't fixed the problem and not a solution in sight. Couple that with recent issue I've started to see with Chrome on my desktop computer too. That was the last straw for me. Solution? I switched to the much hated Microsoft Edge on both my computer and my iPhone and no more issues. Haven't looked back since. Tapping on links work on my iPhone, no issues with authentication, it's fast. I frankly don't know why people hate Edge so much.

Great browser

Been using Chrome on all my devices for about as long as I've had a smartphone. I prefer the interface to Safari, and prior to having more than one Apple device, I liked being able to have access to all my bookmarks, my reading list, browsing history, passwords, etc. on every device. Now that I own and use my iPad and Macbook for school and work in addition to my phone, I really love that I can quickly and seamlessly share webpages from one device to another - which, you might also be able to do with Safari by now, but I haven't used Safari as my primary browser in about a decade. In that entire time I haven't run into a single issue that negatively affected my user experience or made me want to switch browsers. I'll be honest and say that most updates I hardly notice lol, but what few new features I do catch onto, they only make the app/user experience better and better. My regards to the devs. Keep up the excellent work!

Fix discover

Google chrome is awesome and I wouldn't want to use another browser, but... Please fix discover. One of the MOST FRUSTRATING things in this app is how I see the discover feed and see an article I'm interested in only to have it disappear into the void as soon as it refreshes before I even have a chance to open the article. Please... please... show me the previous feeds. Add discover history for articles we haven't viewed yet. I don't understand why this isn't built-in. I've searched for ways to view discover history, but it doesn't exist. Why? I feel like I'm being teased by a good article only to have it disappear before I can open and view it. It's things like this that make me rather not have the discover feed. The only tip I have for others also bothered by the same PROBLEM is to turn off wifi and cell data, open chrome, Took a look at the discover feed and see which articles may interest you in peace, THEN reconnect to internet to let chrome/discover refresh the feed. I consider this to be a big issue, but it'll probably get ignored because I'm in the minority of people want to see yesterday's articles. I'll be opening a support ticket with most of this post copied. It's a shot in the dark but maybe this will get fixed.

Five tips to support the after-school ‘meltdown’

Five tips to support the after-school ‘meltdown’

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Picture the scene: your child comes out of school and the teacher says they've behaved like the perfect child all day, but the moment you get home they have a complete meltdown. Your child screams, shouts, lashes out, sulks or generally acts in an unruly manner.
If that scene is familiar to you, you're not alone. This type of behaviour is what some psychologists refer to as 'after-school restraint collapse' and it's not unusual. It happens because your child has been busy managing their emotions all day as they navigate the complexities of school life.

When they get home, that's their safe space to let it all out!

So, now you know what it is, what can you actually do about it? Parents' Toolkit has been speaking to educational and child psychologist Dr Anisa-Ree Moses, for some tips on how to handle these outburst of emotions after-school.

1. Understand how hard school can be for some children

Dr Anisa-Ree Moses says that children can feel emotional, physical and mental exhaustion at the end of the school day. They have been trying to manage a mix of things like learning, social expectations, their own growing social awareness and all the feedback they're getting from teachers and peers.

"When they come out of that environment a pressure valve is released. If kids feel safe to express themselves, they will do so!"

The transition from school to home can also be challenging for some children: "Some kids may have difficulty separating from their parents. It's a relief when they see them, because their parent or carer represents a level of safety, but they're frustrated at the same time - the child wants them but is finding connection difficult at that moment. It's a positive reunion but it's also really emotional and can be hard for some children to channel."

Dr Moses adds that it can be particularly difficult for neurodiverse children who are coping with sensory sensitivities and the effort of containing a lot of emotions. When they come out of school they often can't hold it all in any longer.

For older children, she also says the transition home can be tricky too. They need space and time after school - they might not want to talk to you about it or will go to their room for a bit first.

Dr Moses suggests having a think about what your child needs when they come out of school.
"Do they need to go and run around the school playground a few times and let go for a bit before they walk home? Do they need movement or do they need a healthy snack? Or quiet time alone with no music or no chatting on the way home in the car or bus?"
It will be different for different kids, but Dr Moses suggests trying to be quiet on the walk or ride home.
"Connect with your child. Not by asking 'how was your day?' but through genuine emotional connection. You could say 'I'm so happy to see you, I'm glad we get to go home together, it made me happy coming out of school this way'. Being calm and using supportive words is important for your children."

She adds: "Include some downtime rather than moving straight on to homework or out to a club, so that your child can decompress. They might enjoy their clubs but still feel anxious, so build in downtime first and make their routine clear, visual and written down if they need that. You can also ask them what will help, for example drawing, reading a book or even just relaxing for a bit. Do it with them and help them to see they can do things to support themselves."

"Be understanding of their emotions - help them feel listened to if they want to talk about what's gone on, or be angry."
"You could say 'I can see you're shouting. I can see you want to be really loud, maybe let's go to the park on the way home'. Validate how they feel rather than try and control it. If they are impolite in the moment, come back to that later - talking at that moment won't help."

"Help them feel listened to and respected and make a genuine connection."
Dr Moses says the after-school 'meltdown' is an expression of emotion that often comes out physically. As parents you can recognise and label it so your child can see if for what it is.
"For example, 'I can see you are kicking the bin, I can see you're clenched and red, I can hear you're shouting and that's making me think you're angry, so I want to help you. However, here's not the safest place to do that, let's go to the park, etc.'"

"Build their emotional vocabulary and link it to the emotion - then they can tell you what they're feeling. You can say things like 'I want to help you. I can't do that when you're screaming. Let's take a deep breath, both of us.' Acknowledging it helps children to not feel alone."
With older children, Dr Moses says it's often more about them not wanting to talk or engage in any discussion about school.
"Especially for those who see school and home as two completely separate things. Just encourage them to build their emotional vocabulary, and be interested in what's happening in general in their life."

She adds: "Questions like 'how was your day?' will get a grunt or 'it's fine'. Think about what you are trying to find out. Can you remember an assignment they had or what they were going to be talking about with their friends? And connect by saying 'I'm happy to see you and hope you've had a good day' until they feel ready to come and have a conversation. Then offer yourself as being there, offer yourself as someone who wants to help and is interested in what's going on.

"Help them feel listened to and respected and make a genuine connection."

Dr Moses says your child might also be upset when they come out of school if there were any difficulties that day that weren't addressed, or there's something unresolved that's happened.

If your child's behaviour after school changes or is different to what's usual for them, try and find out if there are things happening during the school day that are affecting them.

"Think about whether you need a home-school communication book, so that you know whether what's been happening in school could trigger what happens at home. Information from school can help parents know how to approach a situation and whether there's something that needs resolving."

Connection is a great way for your child to know they're loved and that you're there for them, no matter what.
It could be snuggling up in bed, reading a book together, playing a quick game, or just having a chat.

Dr Moses suggests thinking about what your morning routine is like: "Is there anything you can build in there that can help them feel connected to you? I know this can be hard, I know how frustrating and annoying school runs can be! Let them know you're looking forward to seeing them later, just for who they are, not for what they've achieved."

She adds: "If your child is finding separation difficult, can you give them a note or something of yours to have in school? For some children, knowing that Mum or Dad is a phone call away and it won't be withheld from them helps them more.

"Also think about whether you have conversations about emotion at home. It's about helping your children with emotional literacy, building resilience and problem-solving skills, as well as building in transitioning - learning how to make things more predictable so that transitions are not as big and scary. Children are better able to manage their emotions if they know what's going to happen."

Across Waltham Forest The Early Help Assessment is called Our Family Journey. The Our Family Journey tool is used to identify the early help offer that a family requires to prevent needs from escalating to a point where intervention would be necessary via a statutory assessment under the Children Act 1989. The Our Family Journey Tool is designed to be used by all partners to guide integrated working to provide early help, for example through the Team Around the Family (TAF) approach.

Our Guidance Document provides an overview of the layered approach to the Waltham Forest Our Family Journey Tool and to support practitioners in completing accurate and thorough records of a family's situation.

Requests for help and support must be made via this form and all relevant sections MUST be completed in order to support a good referral.

You can make a 'Request for Help and Support' if you think a child or family has additional emerging, complex or acute needs which require a multi-agency intervention; for example, persistent truanting, chronic / recurring health problems, or behaviour is harmful to self and others. Before making this request you should gain consent of the child / young person or family concerned.

The lead professional role

Some children and young people will need help from more than one agency. Where this is the case, the team will appoint a lead professional to coordinate the services provided.

The lead professional:

is the first point of contact for the child, family and other professionals

coordinates the delivery of services provided, for example, by combining different appointments to minimise disruption to families' lives

reduces any inconsistency and overlap between services

Lead TAF professionals should use our TAF meeting guidance

The toolkit has been designed to support practitioners to capture the voice of the child during the CAF process. It has been divided into two parts, with one part consisting of guidance and frameworks for working with children and young people. Part two contains a number of key resources designed to enable professionals to work in a child-centred way in capturing the voice of the child.

The toolkit has been seperated into key age groups:
