Disruption, Belonging & Better School Communication - The Company of Dads Podcast EP154

Interview with Ben Sacco / Author of "Disruption in Schools: Understand me Before You Mark me"

HOSTED BY PAUL SULLIVAN

How do we really know what our kids are trying to tell us - even when they can’t put it into words?
Ben Sacco, author of Disruption in Schools: Understand Me Before You Mark Me, reframes how we think about classroom behavior. He explains why “disruption” is often a sign of adversity - not misbehavior - and how parents can spot the real signals beneath a child’s shutdowns, boredom, or the classic “school was good” response.
Ben also shares practical strategies for recognizing when behavior is actually communication, helping parents and teachers respond with clarity, compassion, and consistency.

WHAT IS A LEAD DAD?
He is a dad who is fully engaged in raising his children, supporting his spouse or partner and working to keep the house together. More often than not, he has a more flexible work schedule than his spouse or partner. He is comfortable in his own skin. It’s a great role to have. But that’s not always the same as being comfortable telling his friends the extent of what a Lead Dad does at home. And perhaps because of that, he finds himself isolated at times – from other dads and certainly from stay-at-home moms.

ABOUT THE COMPANY OF DADS

It’s a place to make friends, to learn, to share ideas and most of all, to enjoy a community of dads just like you – dads who are managing children, supporting their partner and keeping it all together.
