Quote from Oprah Magazine!

"Being a mother is the hardest job on earth. Women everywhere must declare it so."

NIGHT TERRORS AND GENES

Dr Bich Hong Hguyen at the Sleep Disorders Centre in Montreal's Sacre-Coeur Hospital said that night terrors which send children into inconsoloble screaming fits are at least partially inheritable.During these events, children seem confused and disoriented. Any attempt to awaken them may increase their agitation and prolong the episode. As night terrors are brief events, children usually return to sleep with no recollection of the episode.

AN INFORMATIVE INTERVIEW!!! MUST WATCH

Bloomberg is one of the last channels on earth that you might get good insight on parenting let alone watch an interview of one of the top child psychiatrist in the world talk about ADHD or autism. But hey , life is one surprise after the other. If you can download Nightline on youtube, be sure to watch the interview of Dr Harold Koplewicz. He is the founder of the NYU Child Study Centre in New York. His insights will blow you away. Alternatively, you can also check out the website www.AboutOurKids.org
