Do you have to be a certain age for attendance allowance my wife’s as Parkinson’s plus mental disability can I claim as my wife’s carer
@abletocarepodcast15 күн бұрын
Happy new year. I'm really sorry to hear about your situation. You do not have to be a certain age to access attendance allowance and it sounds like there maybe lots of support you could access. Please reach out to Dean though as he is the expert [email protected]. Also check the description and get yourself a carers card. There is loads of support available there. Best wishes.

Great question. So we use the term empathy in a few ways in culture but empathy is a little mutifacited. So one model of empathy is that empathy is three things - recognising the emotions of others, feeling that emotion yourself and adjusting your behaviour accordingly. So emotional contagion could only fulfil one of those critea depending on the individual. So emotional contagion is only part of empathy in the purest sense of the word. 👍

Forcing any punishment or accountability on children is just awful. Children should be able to do what they want, when they want, and how they want. They will be fine when they get older lol.
@abletocarepodcastАй бұрын
I detect sarcasm 😂😂 I think there is a difference between saying "let kids do whatever they want" and "maybe ways we are trying don't work very well" . For instance prison doesn't work and actually statistically slightly increasing the risk of reoffending isn't the same as saying... . "yeah we should let criminals do what ever they want". There is a thing called a reflective and nuanced argument but let's see what happens next.
@Lorenzo-o4dАй бұрын
@ lol true, but yet we raise the theft limit at stores to avoid criminals getting felonies, and now we have more thefts. We legalize drugs and now we have druggies on the street. It seems to me as if Americans no longer hold people accountable anymore, regardless if it’s “effective”. Just my opinion, sure prison maybe isn’t the most effective. Preventing people from even wanting to go to prison is the real issue. Preventing students from wanting to get detention is the issue. Accountability.
@abletocarepodcastАй бұрын
My approach involves restorative practice. Helping people to see how their actions impact on others through developing social understanding, responsibility and empathy. If I empathise with the store owner because he's just like me I'm less likely to steal from them. It's not punishment based as it rarely works whereas restorative practice could help people be better to each other and is proving more effective when used. But long way to go.
@Lorenzo-o4dАй бұрын
@ honestly, I hope that’s the case and wish you the best. Unfortunately the culture in America would need to have a whole different value system. Asian cultures seemed to have mastered accountability and honor, and shame. Wish you the best though.

You are right. There are studies that show that even very young babies seem to show some form of empathy , you are also right that many individuals classed as psychopaths do also seem to have a high level of cognitive empathy but seem to be lower on the emotional empathy scores. It's all very complex to pick out of a single statement on a clip. Im surprised by the manipulation comment but I guess you are right I would like to encourage people to show more empathy towards kids who come from troubled backgrounds as I really believe that showing them more love and empathy will improve their outcomes in life. But maybe I'm wrong or maybe that makes me a bad person. Thank you for your feedback though.
@tallulahraccoon38323 ай бұрын
We are indeed born with the ability to be empathetic! That is a scientifically proven fact! Although humans don't all have the same lvl of empathy from birth on (~ 10% difference due to genetics according to studies). We can learn to be more emptahtic. But that doesn't mean we aren't born with this ability. Even psychopaths aren't all unable to feel empathy. That's just outdated knowledge in this field. Stop spreading lies to manipulate ppl. 🙄

It would be amazing if all parents had the choice financially if they wanted to stay at home but if any parents want to work or need to work they should have that choice but then maybe a recognition from the powers that be that a higher level of nurturing support maybe needed for longer by any community the child goes into like nursery maybe needed. We used to be raised by the village, grandmother used to be in the same house, auntie and uncle over the road, next door were called auntie and uncle even if they weren't related. It doesn't have to be one parent or the another. Kids need play and kids need empathy from somewhere.

@@Egalitarianism_Secularism again from a logical point of view you are correct. We are so safe. However, our biological evolution has not kept up with our cultural evolution. If you have ever felt nervous on a job interview or when giving a speech your brain triggers a similar response to when a predator is chasing you. So why have you ever "logically" felt nervous? Did you not have control of your brain? emotions are not logical. Now its amazing if you personally have a brain that works typically and has really good psychological strategies for managing that fear. However, under the biopsychosocial model, not everyone has the same biology, psychological strategies or social support. So what would your answer be to those who can't yet do what you can?

Great quote. Thanks for your comment. I often refer to it as an internal battle of cost and benefit. The benefit and cost of maintaining vs the cost and benefit of changing. Some people will change when the pleasure of changing becomes greater than the pleasure of maintaining. For example if I offered someone a million pounds to stop eating chocolate, even though they love chocolate, it might be enough motivation for them to change the habit with no pain involved. 👍 Thanks so much for engaging. 😊

That's an interesting concept. So you feel the number 1 cause if the increase in crime since the 80's in British youth is because we are now more open about feelings. I'm not sure there is a direct correlation but it would be interesting to explore and see if there has been study done. My only thought though is the majority of crimes don't seem to carried out by the youth who have higher emotional literacy and intelligence, in fact I'd statistics show exactly the opposite but I'm always open to new theories.

The UK has still a higher incidence of Jakob-Kreuzfeld Disease (brain wasting disease) among the younger segment of the population. There hasn't been much discussion about it in the past 20 or so years. Currently the higher incidence of severe drug and alcohol abuse among the young also comes into play once these addicts reach middle age and continue unabated. Lack of intake of nutritious food also starves the brain of fuel, accelerating brain cell death which is a co-morbidity of addictions as many eventually become malnourished. Our changing social morality, loosening of laws and tolerance to illegal drug consumption has not improved the public's overall health and quality of life. These social tolerances to drugs and alcohol have introduced health complications on a large scale and shortened general life expectancy in most western industrialized countries.
