When College Students Come Home…
When college students come home for the holidays after a few months of independent living, the entire family has to adjust to a different person walking in the door, says a Purdue University expert. Read More

Help kids cope with domestic violence
A technique called emotion coaching can help parents help children surmount the effects of family violence, says a University of Washington study. It found that when mothers in families where there is domestic violence use emotion coaching, their children are less aggressive, withdrawn and depressed. The role of fathers as emotion coaches was less clear. Read More

Teaching kids about safety
With the heart-stopping worry of the baby and toddler years over, parents face new responsibilities for keeping their kids safe. You can't keep children wrapped in cotton wool forever, so it's important to teach them vital safety information.

Balancing that backpack
Backpacks are a convenient way to lug textbooks and school supplies around. However, while they are generally considered a good way to carry large loads because they distribute the weight evenly across some of the body's largest muscles, some kids carry far too much weight on their young backs. That, experts say, puts them at risk for muscle and joint injury.

Pregnancy & Babycare

Nutrition during pregnancy
Congratulations! You're pregnant! This is a thrilling and unique time, when what you eat not only has an affect on your health, but also on the development and wellbeing of your unborn baby. The complex processes that occur during pregnancy require a rich supply of protein, vitamins and minerals for both mother and child. If you've built up good stores of nutrients in the months and years before conception through a healthy, balanced diet, the added demands of pregnancy can be met with modest adjustments. Read More

Fighting the Pregnancy Blahs…
Most pregnant women experience the pregnancy blahs. I can remember feeling so big and unattractive throughout my two pregnancies, and secretly wishing for the pregnancy to be over so that I could have my body back and fit into my normal clothes. It's sad to say, really, because pregnancy is such a beautiful experience and the fact that you created this little human being that is developing in your body should make you feel wonderful through every step of the way.

Child Education

Are you taking the right trip this holiday?
Larry and Corrina Johnson took their children on a trip this summer. No, they didn't visit Mt. Rushmore or the Grand Canyon. Fenway Park, the Field Museum, and the Mackinaw Bridge weren't part of the itinerary either. In fact, the Johnson family never left home. The trip their children experienced was delivered at the kitchen table. They received a full blown, all expenses paid, guilt trip delivered by Larry Johnson and lovingly supported by his wife, Corinna. Read More

Making Time for Yourself
Women: Caretakers of the world, take 1985. A TV commercial came out about a decade ago portraying a day in the life of modern woman. The camera followed a frazzled woman as she scurried here and there with everybody from her boss to her children demanding her time and yapping at her heels. Finally she paused for one breathless moment, just long enough for the camera to zoom in on her and the product she was holding in her hand. Read More
