Expecting kids to control their emotions is not good for their well-being.

When parents believe in suppressing feelings, they respond with more disapproval. Their kids are more likely to become anxious and depressed.

Emotion regulation improves with practice, not punishment.

Police release new information about missing 14-year-old Toronto girl https://t.co/3qQkFXIWgu

[Steve Ryan🇨🇦 @SteveRyanCP24]

I completely respect and appreciate Esther’s family wanting to protect her medical privacy. That is every parent’s right, and I say this with genuine empathy for what they are going through right now.
But learning tonight that Esther is autistic and considered vulnerable fundamentally changes the level of concern surrounding this disappearance.
A 14-year-old girl missing for nearly a week, reportedly without shoes, in light clothing, with no phone and no money, should have had the entire city on heightened alert from the very beginning.
Police rely heavily on the public as extra eyes and ears. Context matters in missing person investigations. Unfortunately, when people hear “missing teenager,” some may wrongly assume the child simply ran away and will eventually return home. But knowing Esther is on the autism spectrum underscores just how vulnerable she may be and why this situation is so urgent.
As a former investigator, I understand and respect the family’s wishes regarding privacy. But personally, I would have strongly encouraged that this information be released earlier because Esther’s safety has to be the overriding priority right now.
My hope is that with this additional information now public, more people across Toronto will keep Esther at the forefront of their minds, stay alert, and help bring this young girl home safely.

Please share widely. We need the public’s help. If you have any information, no matter how small, report it and contact police immediately. If you see Esther or know anything that could assist investigators, call us right away! @TorontoPolice @tps32NCO @Shomrimtoronto

More & more older adults are coming to therapy, often for the first time. They want to understand how their brains work & discover new ways to enjoy their golden years.

But are we ready to do a better job supporting our seniors?

The sacrifice & service first responders make on behalf of every one of us each day remains profound, and too often, life-altering. If you can, thank someone for their service today.

⚡️Cannabis is bad for kids!⚡️

463,396 adolescents screened for cannabis use, followed to age 25.

Past-year use → 2x psychotic disorders, 2x for bipolar, 1.3x for depression, 1.2 for anxiety.

The cannabis-youth psychiatric harm signal just got a lot harder to wave away.

48 female patients came forward to testify to sexual assault by a male Neurologist in Canada.

Male judge discounts ALL of them AND the expert testimony of Dr. Vera Bril (a female doctor and expert) who told the court that it is not norm to do vaginal exams, breast exams or exams of other intimate areas during appointments for neurological concerns.

Canada. Nothing to do with the justice system makes sense to me anymore.

Fam, don’t forget to talk to your family doc (if you have one 🥺) about the quality of your sleep, esp if you’ve got an ADHD household.
