As kids head back to the classroom after shorter-than-ideal summer breaks, their bodies may be showing signs of stress through an unintegrated Moro reflex - the primitive startle response that should disappear by 4 months old.

Watch for these red flags:

• Sleep disruptions or excessive sleeping

• Difficulty focusing on homework

• "Deer in headlights" moments

• Changes in eating habits

• Fight-or-flight responses to everyday situations

I'll teach you how to support your child by creating device-free evenings, family dinners, and proper rest routines.
