Parenting Our Future

It’s mid May, 2020 and things are starting to open back up as the global quarantine ends and restrictions are removed. BUT this is leading to new fears about sending kids back to school and daycare and new fears are emerging about Kawasaki Disease. Fears and rumours are swarming about a new illness that’s affecting children, but we don’t yet understand it. My guest is Pediatrician, Dr. James Lewis who is here to clear up the fears with facts about what the medical community knows and doesn’t know …yet. Dr. Lewis talks about medical fears, how doctors will handle returning patients, the emotional strain on kids and parents and how we will need to handle kids going back to school.

About Dr. James Lewis Dr. James Lewis, a Professor of Pediatrics at the Joan C Edwards School of Medicine at Marshall University in Huntington, WV, is board certified in both Pediatrics and the sub-specialty of Neurodevelopment Disabilities.

In 1983, he and his family moved to Huntington, West Virginia, to join the Department of Pediatrics at the Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine at Marshall University. He practiced both general and behavioral pediatrics and cared for hospitalized newborns, children and adolescents. In 2002 he developed the School Solutions Center at the University, devoting his practice exclusively to children with school and behavioral problems. He continues to see new patients who have been referred for evaluation and follow-up care on a daily basis, teach medical students and train pediatric residents. Throughout the process, he successfully employs a parent-centered multidisciplinary team following the medical home model.

Dr. Lewis lectures regularly on ADHD and coexisting conditions to parents and professionals. He has presented his research interests in ADHD and its association with autism, anxiety, parental stress, learning disabilities and adverse childhood experiences at national and state meetings of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the Pediatric Academic Society, the Learning Disability Association of America, the Society for Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics and CHADD. He has published more than 25 scholarly journal articles, book chapters, and scientific abstracts.

He is currently the Chairman of the West Virginia AAP Committee for Children with Special Health Care Needs and Foster Care. He was also awarded West Virginia’s first five-year, Healthy Tomorrows grant from 2007 to 2012 to coordinate medical care, with a focus on ADHD, for homeless children. Dr. Lewis also received the inaugural Abraham Finkelstein Resident Teaching Award and two Special Recognition Awards from the AAP. Dr. Lewis and his wife Libby, have six grown children including twins, all with careers in medicine or teaching. Two of the boys have ADHD with associated educational and behavioral issues. They are particularly proud of their three grandchildren and are happy to provide pictures on request.

From the Podcast:

If you are worried about your child being sick, the first thing to check is their temperature. A high fever for over 24 hours is a big concern. Seek medical attention if that happens.

The new coronavirus like illness being seen in children is still being studied. It is similar to, but not Kawasaki Disease. Dr. Lewis wants to reassure parents that there are very few cases and that the top medical experts around the world are on it so not to panic.

Dr. Lewis recommends the following tips to a healthy and happy home life during this time: • Have a regular schedule – get your kids up at the same time each day • Be optimistic – a recent study of kids in China has shown those who had an optimistic outlook were able to be less depressed or anxious compared to other children their age who were not optimistic • Time to connect with your kids – join them in an activity they think is fun (don’t just spend time with them doing school work!) • Take time to take...

Mornings are the worst time of the day for our family BY FAR!  My husband and I are NOT morning people and apparently neither are our kids who are now 12 and almost 15.   I have always found that a regular routine is key to getting us out the door on time and in peace (although it’s not always a perfect science with teenagery boys!). 

For parents who struggle with mornings and establishing a routine, meet your new best friend, Elaine Tan Comeau, founder of Easy Daysies!  As a mom to three kids and a former teacher, she has developed easy to follow magnetic schedules to help kids stay on track of tasks from morning routines to bedtime. 

If you struggle with these areas of the day like most parents, you need to check out this episode where Elaine explains why a schedule and routine is so important and how to get on one.

BONUS: Elaine shares her thoughts on homeschooling during quarantine as well. 

P.S. use these same tips for when kids are back in school for when they need to do homework!

I think of organizational skills in a similar way to parenting skills.  We are expected to “just know” how to do it!  AND do it well!  But how?  How many of you were taught exactly how to organize your home?  I just winged it and I’m sure you did too!  It’s the same with parenting.  We try our best to prepare but nothing can really prepare us for all that comes with raising another human being. 

My guest Laurie Palau is a master at organizing and at teaching PARENTS so we can teach our kids.  She also teaches kids on how to be more organized (and there is no better time than right now!). 

You know when we say to our kids, “go clean your room!” Laurie explains that we need to be more specific so we can set our kids up for success.  Does “clean your room” mean everything from vacuuming and dusting or does it just mean put your dirty clothes in the hamper?   As you go about your day organizing and sorting, invite your kids to be a part of it and teach them how to do it.   You can teach them that cleaning up is a part of playing!

Let’s face it, most of us have so much stuff, and we can often get stuck because we don’t have a good process for organizing things.  Laurie has so many simple and practical ways to get us organized.  Listen in for some great tips to help you (and your kids) get more organized even during a global pandemic!

While the world has been told to stay indoors, there are many women who are faced with situations where they are trapped with their abusers.  Being forced to exercise physical distancing, and necessary outings only, there are many women faced with abusers who have escalated violence due to added stress, loss of jobs and income.  The isolation creates a perfect storm where woman and children are trapped behind closed doors with fewer eyes on them from friends and family. 

There is still help if you are being abused.  My guest Samra Zafar is an abuse survivor and has dedicated her life to advocating for women.  She shares what we can do right now if you are in a dangerous situation and what you can do if you think someone you know is being abused.

At 27 I found myself trapped upside-down, drowning in water in a crashed plane. As my life flashed before my eyes, I knew without a doubt, I was out of breath and out of time. That life experience forever changed my perception and beliefs; about the power of the mind; and that choice exists even in life’s most dire circumstances.

Since that fateful day, I have made it my life mission. To understand the mind, conscious choice and empowerment.

Words matter and we often aren’t aware that we’re labeling our child’s behavior in a negative way.  We justify it by seeing it as, “calling it like it is” or “just pointing it out” to our child.  If your child is shy…well, they’re shy….right? 

As parents we have to remember the huge impact our words have on our children.  When they display “undesirable” behavior that we then assign a negative label that label can become part of their self-identity and their inner voice.   

What I’m teaching you to do through this episode is to “Reframe” the way your see your child and their behavior.  Why?  Because when we see our child differently…we see a DIFFERENT child. 

Can you imagine what life would be like without that negative voice or your hurtful self-talk?  That would be freeing!  This is the gift you can give your kids RIGHT NOW!
