Initial research suggests that pregnant women who eat lots of fish – especially tuna, swordfish and other fish with high mercury levels are more likely to have children with ADHD.  Researchers from the Boston University School of Public Health tracked 788 Massachusetts children between 1993 and 1998.  Then they had the children’s mothers keep food diaries while they were pregnant so they could see how much fish the women ate. They took hair samples from them after they gave birth so they could test their mercury levels. 

Eight years later, they asked the children’s teachers if the kids exhibited ADHD-like symptoms, such as hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattentiveness.  The researchers concluded that the women who had the most mercury in their hair were 60% more likely to have a child who exhibited ADHD-like behavior.

Pregnant women who eat lots of fish are more likely to have children with ADHD a study finds.  Check back here tomorrow for a closer look at this shocking study and the surprising results.

Teenagers learn a lot by observing you.  Make sure your driving behaviors are in line with what you expect from them.  This means being mindful of speed limits, road rage and eliminating distractions such as electronic devices while driving.  They will model their driving after yours.

A restaurant in Seattle, WA has started a unique program.  It offers a discount for well-behaved kids.  The restaurant owner gives servers discretion to offer a discount to customers with quiet children with table manners.  The owner does this to reward behaving children due to the fact that loud and antsy kids tend to upset the other customers.  What do you think of this policy?

If it’s a dream of yours that your child might be able to avoid taking medically prescribed drugs for ADD, ADHD and DYSLEXIA, all we can tell you is that help may be on its way.  It will end up being YOU and not Big Pharma that comes to your child’s rescue.

ANXIETY– Some young children are afraid to be separated from their parents.

SOCIAL CHALLENGES and LONELINESS - Some kids have a hard time in large groups and/or making friends.  If this is the case for your child, the school day can be a place of isolation, awkwardness and sadness.  It makes sense for one to hate being trapped 6 hours a day in a place that feels so awful.

CRISIS – If your child or family is experiencing some kind of crisis, sometimes children feel safer to be at home.  Crisis can drain all of the energy out of a person and a school environment requires a lot of energy to be successful.

BULLYING – If your child is the victim of bullying or harassment, staying out of school appears to be better.  Who would want to be in a constant situation of feeling unsafe and fearing for your life every day?
