## Resource

Child Language Brokers, are children who are often put in situations where they have to interpret sensitive or complicated information for adults who do not speak the native language of a country they are it. In some cases this occurs at the expense of their own well-being. This can also affect their sense of identity, as they are forced to navigate the cultural gap between their family and society, taking on responsibilities that may hinder their own academic or emotional development. This episode explores the issues centered around how these dual pressures—being a child and an informal adult in the family—can affect long-term mental health and development. Claro, aquí tienes la traducción al español: Los mediadores lingüísticos infantiles son niños que con frecuencia se encuentran en situaciones en las que deben interpretar información sensible o complicada para adultos que no hablan el idioma nativo del país en el que se encuentran. En algunos casos, esto ocurre a expensas de su propio bienestar. Esto también puede afectar su sentido de identidad, ya que se ven obligados a navegar la brecha cultural entre su familia y la sociedad, asumiendo responsabilidades que pueden obstaculizar su propio desarrollo académico o emocional. Este episodio explora las problemáticas centradas en cómo estas presiones duales —ser un niño y, al mismo tiempo, un adulto informal dentro de la familia— pueden afectar la salud mental y el desarrollo a largo plazo. #vozdelaGentePodcast #mediadoresLingüísticosInfantiles #CLB #parentificación #TreyEvans #peoplesvoicepodcast #childlanguagebrokers #clb #parentification #treyevans Check out the webiste for more info http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/ #thepeoplesvoicepodcast #social issues Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Ac…
