And though we didn't come up with a fail-safe solution, we did come up with a simple idea: that in order for kids like D to not only survive in school but to thrive, we somehow had to figure out a way to not only teach them how to read and write but also how to help them deal with and manage their own emotions.
Dan walaupun kami tidak menemukan solusi yang 100% efektif, kami menemukan satu ide sederhana: agar anak-anak seperti D tidak hanya bertahan di sekolah tapi juga bisa sukses, kurang lebih kami harus mencari cara di samping mengajarkan mereka calistung, yaitu membantu mereka berhadapan dan mengatasi emosi mereka sendiri.
