At this age, children reach a critical turning point in their lives as they transition to the next levels of life. However, one of their greatest desires is to be "loved" by their parents. This expectation places significant pressure on children to excel academically and find ways to make their parents proud.Jirun – Dulchayathorn Bulpatarapakorn, a role model for young people, has skills and careers that include being a representative for international robot competitions. He has a clear guideline, just like other children: strive to study well and compete to win in order to be "loved" by the family. But what if he is not academically inclined? What if he loses a competition? These questions began to plague Jirun's mind as he feared no longer being "loved."This question replayed in Jirun's mind countless times, leading him to realize that, as a 12-year-old, he needed to overcome his own expectations. Jirun wanted to share this story, simple answers, and his own experiences to help families with children who are struggling to feel loved and are experiencing stress.This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

- 17:59Autistična djeca, naši učitelji: povratak na ono što je važno | Jasmina Kundić | TEDxKarlovacLibraryKroz osobno iskustvo majčinstva i rada s autističnom djecom, Jasmina poziva na promjenu perspektive: djeca s autizmom nisu ovdje da ih "popravljamo", nego da nas odrasle podsjete na istinske vrijednosti života. Uče nas prisutnosti, autentičnosti i bezuvjetnom prihvaćanju. Iako je tijekom karijere stjecala značajno iskustvo u pravnim, organizacijskim i projektnim poslovima, po prirodi nije osoba koja se uklapa u unaprijed zadane okvire. Životna prekretnica dogodila se kroz majčinstvo djetetu iz spektra autizma, što joj je otvorilo oči za nedostatke sustava u podršci djeci s teškoćama u razvoju i njihovim obiteljima. Iz te osobne spoznaje 2018. godine osnovala je Udrugu za inkluziju i promicanje kvalitete življenja djece i mladih s teškoćama Frendofon u Karlovcu, koju i danas vodi kao predsjednica. U radu spaja znanje i iskustvo iz karijere sa svakodnevnim životom uz autistično dijete, stvarajući projekte i programe koji odgovaraju stvarnim potrebama korisnika, a ne samo administrativnim okvirima. Njezina misija je boriti se za bolji položaj autističnih osoba u društvu – kroz konkretne programe, edukacije, zagovaranje i podizanje svijesti o autizmu.
