Q&A: Children with generalized anxiety disorder worry about a lot of everyday things. Their worry is not caused by anything specific and it is bad enough to get in the way of daily life.

To be diagnosed with the disorder, children must experience symptoms most days for at least six months.

Learn more at childmind.org, and do not hesitate to contact your child's health provider if you have any questions or concerns.

Although they might need a little more support, kids with dyscalculia can absolutely improve their math skills.

Multisensory instruction, such as the use of sight, sound, and touch, have often resonated with kids who have dyscalculia.

Classroom accommodations and tools like graphic organizers can also be a big help.

Kids want to be on social media. They feel significant social pressure, especially when “everyone else” seems to have access. But the benefits don’t outweigh the risks. Not by a long shot. This is the digital mom's best advice on how and why to say no.

👉 5 MAIN MESSAGES 👉

✅ Not giving you social media is not a punishment, it's a safety decision. And, it's one I’ve spent a lot of time researching and thinking about.

✅ Not giving you social media isn’t because I don’t trust you—it's the virtual world and the strangers in it that I don’t trust.

✅ The dangers of social media are real. You may not be able to fathom the dangers or think they won’t happen to you but they really do happen to kids just like you.

✅ Social media was created for adults. The parental controls offered do not make it safe enough for teens.

I love you. Please remember that.

TALKING POINTS

Social Media Parental Controls were added well after these apps launched—largely in response to complaints and pressure, not because a teen use case was intentionally designed.

Here are some examples of where the Parental Controls fall short

YouTube has addictive & problematic content. Specifically, YouTube Shorts is built like the scrolling content feeds in TikTok or Instagram but there are no YouTube Shorts specific parental controls. The content controls are observably less consistent on Shorts than on regular YouTube.

TikTok has addictive & problematic content and data and privacy issues. While it does actually have fairly strict parental controls, TikTok is observably the most addictive. TikTok is also currently being sued by the DOJ for child data privacy concerns.

Instagram has addictive & problematic content AND unsafe private messaging. Instagram controls can’t definitively block strangers from reaching you. I cannot monitor messages.

Delay! Delay! Delay! No smartphones until the end of 8th grade and no social media until 16!

An air freshener is a chemical mixture designed to mask odors. It may come in the form of a spray, solid, candle, liquid, or may plug into the wall. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), air fresheners may contain formaldehyde, petroleum distillates, p-dichlorobenzene, and/or aerosol propellants. They may also contain “fragrance” chemicals, many of which contain phthalates.

Instead of cleaning the air, air fresheners actually pollute the air. They do nothing to “clean” the air or remove the source of odors: they simply cover the bad smells with the smell of chemicals!

Here are some tips to help prevent smells naturally:
• Vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, Borax, and sunlight are all strong, safer odor-fighting cleaners, and they’re cheap and easy to use, too! (Vinegar has a strong smell, but don’t worry, it quickly disappears to leave nothing but a clean smell behind!)
• Take out the trash often. Clean out trash containers regularly, and sprinkle a little baking soda into the clean can before you put in a new trash bag to keep bad smells at bay.
• Keep your indoor environment clean and dry. When you clean up spills and pet accidents, use a mixture of water and white vinegar or baking soda to neutralize bad smells. Try fans and dehumidifiers to get rid of smells in damp areas, and prevent mold growth too.
• Fresh air. When the weather is good, open the windows to let in fresh air. Using a fan will help move air around and dry things out.

Before starting your baby on solid foods, review these tips and always contact your pediatrician with any questions or concerns.

🥦 Complementary foods are foods other than breast milk or infant formula introduced to an infant to provide nutrients. Introduce nutrient-dense complementary foods and aim for a variety of foods, flavors and textures from all food groups. These complementary foods and beverages can help meet nutrient needs and should be selected carefully.

🍗 Include foods rich in iron and zinc, particularly for breastfed infants. Examples include fortified infant cereals, meat, and beans.

🥜 Introduce potentially allergenic foods (e.g., egg, cow milk products, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, crustacean shellfish, fish, and soy) along with other complementary foods. This may reduce their risk of developing allergies to these foods. However, cow milk and fortified soy milk should wait to be introduced until 12 months or later.

🚫 Since taste preferences develop early in life, avoid feeding infants foods and beverages with added sugars and limit those higher in sodium.

Parents and caregivers of girls with ADHD have some important things to consider when thinking about their daughters’ educational needs. For some families, this may include choosing between different school options if they are available.

One question parents should consider asking their daughter's educational setting is: Do the administrators and teachers understand how ADHD presents in girls and have experience recognizing its symptoms?

💉💪 Vaccines offer the best protection against common types of bacterial meningitis. By getting vaccinated, you are giving yourself a powerful defense against a potentially devastating disease. Talk with your child’s pediatrician if you have any questions or concerns regarding the meningitis vaccine.
