Thanks for coming to my blog! This blog is dedicated to providing information regarding kids, adolescents, parents, and the issues facing families today. I initially got the idea to start a blog from my lovely wife who is a bona fide “blog stalker”. While talking with her, she indicated that she loves to read her friends and their friends’ blogs for funny anecdotes, cute ideas for home/meals, and for general enjoyment. I then came to the realization that, while I spend most of my day working with kids and parents, this would be another way to reach out and hopefully be a source of information for people who may struggle with their kids, want information how to help their family, or are just have questions about people and their behavior.
I will try to update often and will address topics such as discipline strategies, developmental concerns, issues with ADHD, autism, depression and anxiety. Much of what I have to share is based in research; however, I admit that I will also share my personal opinion based on my education and experience also. I will do my best to state when it is research and when it is opinion.
I hope that people feel willing to leave comments and ask questions. There is a certain stigma about talking to someone about these types of issues and I think that an online format is one that will help people feel comfortable about looking at these issues.

How very exciting, Dr. Livingstone! I promise to be a loyal reader--I'm looking forward to learning a thing or two.
First question: mind if I send my son to your house for a few years?
Second question: in the meantime, any ideas for helping him cope with disappointment without coming unglued?
What a great idea!! This is going to spread fast. When you're on The Today Show or Good Morning America, (or any other major television network) will you mention my name? Even if you have to refer to the food, I'm okay with that. HAHA. This is awesome! I can't wait to read your posts. You're going to help so many people - and for FREE!! AWESOME!!
Very cool! I'll get it linked ASAP to my blog.
Hmmm, getting advice from the brother that hit me in the head with nunchucks when we were younger? Just kidding, not about the nunchucks part, but I will gladly advertise your expertise on my blog. I just need to know how to do it.
What a super idea. You have a loyal reader in me. As a parent and Foster parent to children born addicted to certian substances this could be very useful to me. John you are wonderful.
Great idea and I must say I am so impressed with your wisdom, understanding and great council. Best of everything. Love you. Proud Ma and Pa!
