And while there can be so much excitement, parents of kids with ADHD also know that the transition back to school can bring some familiar challenges.As the school year begins, the demands on your child’s executive function increase, too. Suddenly, ther
Fifteen States Still Let Schools Hit Children to Discipline Them (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week, NPR published a piece called “15 states have laws that allow corporal punishment in schools. Here’s where, and why.“ I honestly was naively shocked to learn this was still happening in schools.The article shares how a mother in Arkansas got a call from her son’s kindergarten.
