Vision loss means that a person’s eyesight is not corrected to a “normal” level. Vision loss can vary greatly among children and can be caused by many things.

If you notice any symptoms indicating your child might have impaired vision, please contact your pediatrician. Treating vision problems early may protect your child’s sight and teaching children with severe vision loss how to function early can help them reach their full potential.

Q&A: Children with selective mutism have a hard time speaking in some situations, like at school. These kids aren’t just shy. Their anxiety is so bad that they feel frozen and are not able to speak.

Children are not diagnosed with selective mutism if their trouble speaking is caused by a communication disorder or language barrier.

Signs of selective mutism include the following: 1) Able to speak in some situations but not others. 2) Have had the problem for at least a month. 3) Issues with school/social activities as a result.

Learn more at childmind.org, and do not hesitate to contact your child's health provider if you have any questions or concerns.

Occasionally being sad or feeling hopeless is a part of every child’s life. However, some children feel sad or uninterested in things they used to enjoy or feel helpless or hopeless in situations they can change. They may become more irritable as children are more likely to show different features of depression. When children feel persistent sadness and hopelessness, they may be diagnosed with depression.

If you think your child is depressed, do not hesitate to contact your pediatrician as soon as you start noticing signs.

Thinking about getting your driver’s license but feeling anxious about traffic stops or communication challenges? Some states offer the option to voluntarily identify as autistic on your license through programs like the Blue Envelope.
It can help law enforcement better understand your communication style—but it also means disclosing your diagnosis in more situations.
Want to know if it’s right for you? Here are the pros and cons, straight from the autistic community: https://okt.to/MWaiUg

Your teens may think that they don’t need you anymore, but they’ll always need their teeth! During adolescence, we want to be sure that children continue effective oral hygiene habits such as:

🦷 Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
😁 Flossing
👩🏻‍⚕️ Seeing a dentist
🍎 Eating a healthy diet that is low in sugar
💧 Drinking water with fluoride.

They will thank you for setting the foundation for good oral health by modeling best practices, having your child see a dentist regularly, and making sure he had all of the needed preventive treatments, such as sealants, fluoride applications, orthodontics, and fillings, when needed.
