Fainting (also known as syncope) is common, particularly in teenagers. Though it can be a frightening event, the common faint lasts just seconds and is typically not a sign of a dangerous problem. The bigger concern is avoiding injury during a fall. Knowing the difference between a potentially dangerous faint and the more common, benign faint may seem intimidating, but there are clues that can help guide a family or provider to seek additional help and evaluation. See post for more details!

Young children have the highest risk of being injured at home because that's where they spend most of their time. Most childhood injuries, like burns for example, can be predicted and therefore prevented. Supervision is the best way to prevent injuries.

Here are some tips to PREVENT BURNS AT HOME:

🔥 Keep matches and lighters out of reach of children.

🔥 Install and maintain a smoke alarm and remember to change the batteries!

🔥 Cover electrical outlets.

🔥 Turn pan handles on the stove inward and use back burners when cooking.

🔥 Set the hot water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (F) or less. Ask a friend or your landlord if you need help.

🔥 Test bath water temperature before putting your child in it.

A major driver of the mental health crisis, said Dr. Matthew Biel, the chief of the division of child and adolescent psychiatry at Georgetown University Hospital, is “the digitization of our lives, and social media in particular.”

Teenagers agree. Asked for the main cause of mental health issues in a Common Sense survey, the largest share said the negative impact of social media and the Internet, and the next largest said bullying, including online.

This generation of kids is struggling. All the data confirms it. The time for action is now.

✅ Delay entry to smartphones until at least the end of 8th grade.

✅ Delay social media until at least 16.

✅ When you do say yes, say yes with limits.

✅ Cultivate a desire for life offline for your kids and structure your home and your calendar to make it happen!

✅ Keep phones out of the bedroom especially at night.

✅ Advocate for your school to have a strong smartphone policy in place that is enforced.

Sometimes children do not outgrow the fears and worries that are typical and appropriate in young children. Or, they might have so many fears and worries that they can’t enjoy school, home, or play activities. These are signals that the child may have an anxiety disorder.

If you think your child may have anxiety, contact your pediatrician as soon as you start noticing signs.

In recent years, homework has become a very hot topic. Many parents and educators have raised concerns about homework and questioned how effective it is in enhancing students’ learning. There are also concerns that students may be getting too much homework, which ultimately interferes with quality family time and opportunities for physical activity and play. Research suggests that these concerns may be valid. For example, one study reported that elementary school students, on average, are assigned THREE TIMES the recommended amount of homework.
So what does the research say? What are the potential risks and benefits of homework, and how much is “too much”?
