Give the Best Gift of All -- Keep the Magic of the Season Alive
-- By Regina Garson, Magic Stream Publisher
As the holiday season swings into overdrive, many of us agonize over the perfect gift. The best really is in the magic of the season. Keep the magic alive. Pass it on....
Teach Your Kids to Show Themselves They Care
--
By Regina Pickett Garson
Moments spent with special friends are treasures, but so are the moments spent alone. If kids learn it early, they are truly ahead of the game. There is only one person who stays with us from the time we are born until the day we die. Shouldn't we make certain that person feels special too?
No, No, No...
What Else is a Parent to Say?
--
By Michele R. Acosta
A humorous look at an age old parental lament. The word no is probably the most overused word in the English language.
The Depressed Child -- Children under stress, who experience loss, or who have attentional,
learning or conduct disorders are at a higher risk for depression.
Helping Children After a Disaster. -- A catastrophe or violent act is frightening to children and adults alike. It is important to acknowledge the
frightening parts of the disaster when talking with a child about it. Falsely
minimizing the danger will not end a child's concerns.
Children and Grief -- When a family member dies, children react differently from adults.
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) --
In children and adolescents.
"A baby is born with a need to be loved
- and never outgrows it."
-- Frank A. Clark --
