Jul 04, 2025πΆπ§π Every learner starts dependent.
Not just on adults.
But on structure.
On rhythm.
On being invited in.
And every learner dreams of independence.
To choose. To create. To lead.
But here’s what we forget:
π They don’t move from one to the other.
They grow through both.
We don’t build independence by letting go.
We build it by staying close, then stepping back — and back in again.
True independence is never a solo act.
It’s co-constructed.
That’s why:
→ Asking for help is a skill.
→ Building scaffolds is a strategy.
→ Growing autonomy takes connection.
π‘ Dependence & Independence is not a choice.
It’s a dance.
And the music is made by trust, timing, and stretch.
