Your baby doesn’t need screen time. 📱 📺 💻 You probably know that. But did you know that YOUR screen time also holds the potential to influence their development? In research from the University of Texas at Austin recently published in the journal Child Development, investigators synced recordings of...

When my daughter was a baby I treated my phone like a landline. It was in one place - in the kitchen. Only when she was asleep I would use it. Also not when breastfeeding. I didn’t want her look up at me and see me like that.

I have one tip for parents who like to log sleeping / feeding times and amounts, etc of their baby.. a notebook and a pen works totally fine, you don't need an app for it! Kids even get curious about the writing bit.. (at some point of course, it is stimulating), imho, a win-win

Could you post a link to the study? I’m a public school teacher and am always harping on limited screen time. Would like to read the research myself.

Like many research journals it’s paywalled, but here’s the link. If you google the primary author’s name there are some newspaper and magazine stories that hit the highlights.

It’s wonderful how infants “speak” with their whole “selves”— her arms and legs, torso, head — all that energy!

When around your children— We should probably— Treat phones and tablets like a drug (or medicine) or, like food (candy, etc) or drink we don’t want to expose children too —without having to explain ourselves.

A very important point. Too often I see parents and child board a bus and the parent get out their phone while the infant lies there or searches wildly for some stimulation. Shame.

Used to pass Infants School (Elementary) on nice, middle class estate Sad to see parents walking children to school or pushing prams & buggies (strollers) back home But ignoring their children as looking at phones🤳 Not quick glance or quickly keying in message But continual Sad

I thought I heard the baby try to mimic mom’s “I love you” both times. 🤷‍♀️

Now here’s a little guy who LOVES his pacifier. This is a topic I’ve avoided to date, largely because there are so many varying opinions on the matter. For me the question isn’t so much whether to use one, but for how long. Infants are born with a strong sucking reflex and pacifiers can help them to soothe and sleep. There’s even some evidence to suggest that sleeping with pacifiers might reduce the risk of SIDS. In short: for babies (up to a year), I’m a fan. But it’s not uncommon to see children with pacifiers well into toddlerhood, and in some cases, even beyond. And here I’d raise some cautions. Children who rely heavily on pacifiers may be more prone to middle ear infections. And dentists note that prolonged pacifier use can affect your child’s teeth and create bite issues. Perhaps most importantly is their potential to impact expressive language development. Your child’s ability to speak is an important one. After a point, language shapes not only the content of our thinking, but the very structure of our cognition. By otherwise occupying the mouth over long periods of time, pacifiers may slow language development by limiting opportunities for expression. Speaking with a pacifier in the mouth can also lead to distortion of speech sounds (even when they aren’t in the mouth). All told, I’m an advocate for beginning to wean off of pacifiers at around one year of age. The transition can be difficult - but not nearly as challenging as for a child who has become dependent over a period of years. Do/did you use pacifiers with your child? Why or why not? How did you help transition away from their use? This sweet little one (for whom a pacifier is still completely age appropriate) was shared to IG by voroujakeman.

Parents aren’t the only ones who can help nurture healthy attachment. This week I’ve been writing about attachment in young children. And yesterday I thought (and told you) I was done. But I’ve fielded a similar question from many of you that warrants just one last post on the topic. The questions have come from grandparents, teachers, nannies… adults who may not be a child’s parents, but care about them deeply nonetheless. Their question is: what role can I play in supporting a child who may be exhibiting signs of insecure attachment. The answer is that you can, within your own context, provide the kind of warm, consistent, and nurturing interactions to that children may be lacking elsewhere. If we are lucky in life, we experience secure attachments not only with our parents, but with other significant figures in our lives (right into adulthood). For insecurely attached children, particularly those who have experienced trauma at home, these other caregivers can be a godsend. A caring and consistent teacher may be the first adult with whom some children ever experience such a relationship. And their classrooms may be the only safe and predictable settings that some children know. The results, meanwhile, may extend well beyond academic performance, helping children to better regulate their emotions and navigate the world with newfound confidence. The bottom line: we can all play a role in nurturing secure attachments - and may never fully know the difference we’ve made in the life of a child.

Richard Dolan, on our need for collective self-reflection as we face the alien presence. 👽 "Here's another scenario, because I love to speculate about this. So what if these beings have an IQ of like 500+. Like they’re orders of magnitude beyond us. And they're telepathic, so they can crawl inside your mind. And they're part of their own hive mind so that they have instant access to a complete like encyclopedia, a Galactica Encyclopedia of information. And they have an emotional disposition that makes it so that maybe they don't laugh at all of your jokes. And they look at you and they can see your naked soul before them. So does it matter if they look human or not? If you're sitting in a room across from one of them and they're just staring at you? Well, that would be very intimidating, I think. And that doesn't strike me as impossible a scenario. "So if they are like that, we are going to have to find our own center of being. I mean, some people might think this sounds very wishy washy, but I've really come to believe that it is probably essential that, for us to deal with them, we need to have a very much better understanding of ourselves. "For example, think of the kind of society that we create. Constant stimulation. Constant screen attachment. Screen addiction. Waiting for the notifications. Bing bing bing. The endorphins. And we're constantly chasing, chasing after whatever we're chasing in this world of ours. Like the hamster wheel that you never get off of. That's the world for many of us. That is not a society conducive to self-examination and self-exploration. When you are dealing with a series of intelligences that are probably leaps and bounds beyond our operational capacity to begin with. "So if we're going actually to deal with them in any way that's meaningful, we probably need to just stop and engage in some seriously deep self-reflection about what we are. And then maybe that means spirituality, like it probably does, to be honest. And the kind of system that we've developed in our world, I just, at this point in my life, I don't think is all that conducive to us being able to effectively, psychologically relate to these other beings."

This is a long tweet - but its worth a read - Reform UK’s Dr David Bull talking about family and whether parents should stay at home to look after their children: “You want to support marriage through the tax system and make it easier for parents to stay at home to look after their children - what's the reason behind that?” Dr David Bull: We believe that children do better in stable relationships across the board. And actually we need to encourage that. In marriage you think? Dr Bull: In marriage, and that marriage is an important bond, isn't it? Because I think what children desperately need is someone at home, and they need someone to be there and support them during that education. So we think that's a cornerstone, actually. And one of the things that I find really strange and very difficult to understand is the disconnect that children now have, because when you come home, you want to be able to offload what's been going on at school, and you need someone at home to be able to do that. And if we can incentivise that through tax breaks that has to be a good thing. Do you think if you're a child with two working parents, that's not a great upbringing for you? Dr Bull: No… Of course, it's incredibly difficult. And parents have to work because of the cost of living. But actually, the ideal would be to have a parent that is there available when children need them. You say in the manifesto that the majority of mothers would choose to stay at home more if they could. What's the research on that? Dr Bull: So we polled extensively, actually. But I think if you talk to any mother, of course, they want to spend time with their children. They want to see them grow and develop. And if you're spending all your time at work and you don't have enough time with your kids, I think that's a travesty. You think it's a travesty? Dr Bull: yes And do you think it damages the children as well? Dr Bull: I think emotionally, children need support as they grow and develop. There are lots of questions they have. You have to look at why children are now so obsessed with social media, and certainly from the point of view of having nephews and nieces that are being told all sorts of stuff on social media that needs correcting immediately. One of the biggest things we've seen is the rise of anorexia and bulimia in young women and in young boys as well. And what - do you think that might be because you don't have parents at home? Dr Bull: Well, I think actually the parents are there and they need to counter some of the myths that are on social media.

Brain under construction! 🚧 🧠 🚧 Did you know that the period from prenatal to age three is the single most consequential window in all of human development? It is here that the fundamental architecture of the brain is “wired” in ways that will serve to support (or hinder) your child’s success for decades to come. At birth, your baby’s brain comes equipped with roughly 100 billion nerve cells, virtually all they will ever have. But what these cells must develop is the ability to communicate effectively with one another. They do this by transmitting electrical impulses. And there’s no time in life when these connections (known as synapses) are firing like they are during infancy. Scientists estimate that during the earliest years of life these neural connections are being made at a rate of one million per SECOND. Pretty impressive, huh? How can you help ensure your baby’s brain is optimally wired for success? Through attentive and nurturing interactions like the ones shown here. Every word you speak, every facial expression you convey, and every loving touch is helping to create important new connections. No one can be this attentive 24 hours a day. But prioritizing time to speak, sing, laugh, and play with your baby face-to-face is an investment you’ll never regret - and one that will serve them well for years and years to come. Know a new parent or grandparent? Pass it on! This brain-building dad and his adoring little one were shared to IG by genesiscostner.
