KST A to Z
Amish kid and strict teacher

I go to “Amishland” in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania every month or so to take care of some families. The Amish live without cars or electricity but they run a generator for me so I can use the arthrostim.
One Amish child was having bad grades in his English class. The grades in his other subjects were fine. His mother told me that he was very uncomfortable with his English teacher.
I had him think of his teacher looking at him and adjusted him for what came up. Then I asked him to imagine his teacher staring at him with a mean look on his face. Again, he subluxated and I adjusted what came up. We did this a few times until his teacher didn’t cause him to have a stress reaction.
His parents reported that he had no more trouble in English class and his grades improved.
