Most people only associate vision with eyesight, but today’s guest, Dr. Juanita Collier, explains that there is so much more to the visual system, and even a child with great eyesight could be struggling with vision-related learning difficulties. https://t.co/8xUtSCy0Cl

Don’t forget to add sleep to your #BackToSchool checklist. When children and adolescents don’t get enough sleep it impacts their ability to focus, remember information, and regulate emotions–things that are critical to their wellbeing on any given day. https://t.co/YshcvIWkXw

Loved this conversation between @DrKarenIWilson and @TiltParenting - - https://t.co/xy197wdlRs

In a 25-page report, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy stated that social media poses “profound risk of harm” for teenagers.  But, what about students who think and learn differently? Are they at increased risk for harm and how do we support them? https://t.co/7Eo4UXnbyN

The end of a school year is a great time to reimagine learning environments for the next academic year. While that may seem like a topic only applicable to teachers and their classrooms, these redesign ideas are amazing additions to a child’s home as well.

Should you share your child’s diagnosis with them? How do you talk to them about their learning difference?

My guest, Dr. Liz Angoff, explains why a child’s learning difference or disability shouldn’t be kept a secret from them. https://t.co/FeQdDpHHG2
