Today we are continuing our series on child development. If you listened to the previous episode, then you’ll recall that the CDC recently changed the developmental milestones. This should raise all kinds of red flags - our children today are not developing the same as they did in the past. Today we will be focusing especially on what a developmental delay actually is and exploring some common reasons for developmental delays and how they affect a child’s brain.

Welcome back to season two of the Connect My Brain podcast! This season we are going to focus on childhood development and today we’re jumping right in talking about developmental milestones and why you need to pay attention to them. In February of 2022 the CDC actually changed the developmental milestones to match what they see happening in kids today. This means our children are not developing the way they used to and this is a big problem!
