We will also explore how the accepted range of how children should use screens has changed with the COVID virus.
We’ll discuss how to help parents:
- Recognize all the ways we use screens and explore some of the positives and negatives
- Identify their goals, such as how they want their kids to use screens when a child gets their first smartphone
- Explore some steps between their child's current use of screens and parents' goals
An outline of the issues will be e-mailed to participants.

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Information
Childhood trauma isn’t something you just get over as you grow up. Pediatrician Nadine Burke Harris explains that the repeated stress of abuse, neglect and parents struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues has real, tangible effects on the development of the brain. This unfolds across a lifetime, to the point where those who’ve experienced high levels of trauma are at triple the risk for heart disease and lung cancer. An impassioned plea for pediatric medicine to confront the prevention and treatment of trauma, head-on.
