What if the students we struggle with the most… are the ones we understand the least?
Every school has them.
The students who are labeled difficult.
Disrespectful.
Unmotivated.
The ones whose names are mentioned before they even walk through the door.
But what if behavior isn’t the problem?
What if behavior is communication?
What if the actions that frustrate us most are actually signs of unmet needs, past experiences, trauma, or challenges we cannot see?
In The Kids We Misunderstand: How Connection Changes Behavior, Builds Trust, and Transforms Schools, educational leader RJ Koehler shares powerful real-life stories and practical strategies from years of working with students impacted by trauma, poverty, violence, instability, and loss.
From students working overnight to help support their families…
To students carrying invisible emotional wounds…
To students whose choices reflect struggles far beyond the classroom…
This book reveals what educators often don't see and explores what becomes possible when we choose connection over control.
This is not a book about lowering expectations.
It is not about excusing behavior.
It is about understanding the story behind the behavior so educators can respond with empathy, accountability, and purpose.
Inside, educators, school leaders, counselors, and student support professionals will discover how to:
- Understand student behavior through a trauma-informed lens
- Build authentic relationships with students who feel disconnected or misunderstood
- Create classrooms where students feel safe, valued, and ready to learn
- Use restorative practices and relationship-based strategies to address challenging behaviors
- Strengthen student engagement, belonging, and trust
- Transform school culture through connection-driven leadership
Through honest storytelling and practical guidance, RJ Koehler challenges educators to rethink discipline, classroom management, and the way we define student success.
Because the truth is:
These are not bad kids.
They are kids carrying things many of us were never asked to carry.
And when we take the time to truly see them, we do more than change behavior.
We change lives.
Perfect for teachers, principals, administrators, counselors, special education professionals, education students, and anyone committed to creating trauma-informed schools where every student has the opportunity to grow.

Connection changes everything.

Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.

Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
