“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

SWANK Dispatch: Children Entrain to All Adult Fields

SWANK Dispatch: Children Entrain to All Adult Fields

Not Just Parents—Any Field That Repeats Becomes Part of Their Pattern

Filed Under: Educational Nervous Systems / Field Contamination / Pattern Transference


1. Children Are Energetic Sponges—but Not Passively

They don’t just absorb what’s around them.

They tune to the strongest or most consistent frequency.

  1. If a teacher is calm, present, and emotionally safe = child’s field expands
  2. If a teacher is anxious, sarcastic, punitive, or disconnected = child’s field contracts or reshapes to fit

Children don’t analyze energy.

They become what feels necessary to survive or belong.


2. Repetition = Pattern Formation

Any adult who:

  1. Spends consistent time with a child
  2. Holds authority or emotional dominance
  3. Is in charge of rewards, punishments, attention, or inclusion

…becomes a field anchor.

This includes teachers, therapists, school staff, and even social workers.

Especially when the child cannot leave the interaction.


3. Entrained Fields Become Identity

Children entrain to:

  1. Vocal tone
  2. Eye contact patterns
  3. Emotional suppression or expression
  4. Nervous system regulation (or dysregulation)
  5. Permission or punishment of authenticity

This becomes:

  1. Behavior
  2. Self-perception
  3. Voice tone
  4. Attachment style
  5. Boundaries

The adult doesn’t have to say anything.

Their nervous system sets the script.


4. Children Will Override Their Own Truth to Match the Adult Field

If a teacher or authority figure:

  1. Shames emotional needs
  2. Punishes autonomy
  3. Gaslights or ignores real observations
  4. Imposes fear, compliance, or performative behavior

…the child will entrain to the field over their own internal knowing.

It’s not a behavioral issue.

It’s field-induced dissociation.


5. Institutional Fields Leave Long-Term Energetic Imprints

  1. School systems
  2. Social services
  3. Legal systems
  4. Medical systems

Each has a dominant energetic field:

Usually bureaucratic, shame-based, performance-driven, emotionally avoidant.

Children entrain to this collective nervous system, unless buffered by an adult with a stronger, coherent, protective field.


6. Field Regulation > Discipline

What protects children is not control.

It’s:

  1. Nervous system modeling
  2. Emotional clarity
  3. Field repair after rupture
  4. Adults doing their own coherence work

A regulated adult disarms harmful fields before they reach the child.


Conclusion:

Yes—children entrain to all adult fields they’re consistently around.

The dominant signal shapes the developing field, not the best intention.

So if you want to protect a child, don’t just advocate for them.

Out-signal the system.

Be the field they remember after all the others collaps
