What it Tells Us (for Parents)


This story tackles the daily grind of slow, distracted, or resistant morning behaviour. Bria dawdles, delays, and puts her family in a flap every single morning. It’s frustrating - but common. Children often lack a sense of urgency, don’t yet feel the weight of time, and may resist routines because they’d rather play or sleep in. This story shows how a slow start at home can impact everyone’s day, and how consistent structure, realistic time expectations, and modelling urgency can make all the difference.
