ADD children seem able to focus on fast moving action such as a video game or computer. There is some belief that the rapid action matches their rapid thinking which helps to retain focus.

There is no scientific evidence that video games cause epilepsy. It's possible that stress, fatigue, or hyperventilation (unusually fast or deep breathing) may trigger seizures during video games in some children with epilepsy. Video games also may trigger seizure activity in children with photosensitive epilepsy (seizures triggered by flashing lights or flickering images), but this affects only 3% of people with epilepsy.

Television is part of many young children's lives, but watching TV can keep children from engaging in play. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that parents discourage all "screen time” (which includes television, video games, and computers) for children under age 2 and suggests that preschool-age children view not more than 1-2 hours a day.

All hospitals, nursing homes, doctors and other health care providers are legally required to provide your health care agent with the same information that would be provided to you and to honor the decisions by your agent as if they were made by you. If a hospital or nursing home objects to some treatment options (such as removing certain treatment) they must tell you or your agent BEFORE or upon admission, if reasonably possible.

This is the $100 question. As I stress elsewhere here, sometimes the market is controlled by emotion. Although the market can be considered to be always "right", sometimes it is irrational. Irrational because the market participants are only human, and technicals are the only way to gauge emotion in one stock or a whole market. Fundamentals can't do this. Regardless of how right you think the situation is, you need a way to be warned that the market just doesn't agree with you.

Why not? One night, after eating a bad gyro, a voice came to Jeremy in a dream-like state, saying, "Build a website devoted to an Internet radio show about video games, and they will come." Obviously, he has thin walls and his neighbors have a sick sense of humor. Really, we wanted to make an original website, and we couldn't find anything like this on Google.

If your child's limited attention span is due to an inability of the eyes to maintain steady aiming and focusing, then the EYEPORT™ can help. However, only your vision specialist can make this determination.

Except for a movie or two, campers have no access to the electronic world of cell phones, e-mail, video games, and television.

Actually, video games may help sharpen your child's vision skills, but only if they're played in moderation. Video games can help sharpen eye movement skills, eye-hand coordination, visual reaction time and side vision awareness. However, staring at a video screen for hours on end puts the eyes under great stress, causing headaches, fatigue, blurring vision, and may contribute to nearsightedness. Five minute "eye breaks" are recommended for every 30 minutes of play. BACK TO TOP Not necessarily.

In the three years we have operated, we have never seen a student play video games all day. Neither have we seen a student watch movies all day. Other students and activities force your child to question the use of his time.

Most likely yes. Much depends on where your child falls on the spectrum, but with your support, as well as that of doctors, therapists and teachers, your child should be able to attend school. In fact, it's his right: According to the Individuals with Disabilities Act of 1990, which mentions autistic children specifically, your child deserves access to a “free and appropriate” education funded by the government, whether it be in a mainstream or special education classroom.

Most schools have a no-nit policy to control head lice outbreaks. Generally, when you have completed one pediculicidal treatment & one olive oil treatment (or two olive oil treatments) and a thorough nit combing and manually removed all nits, you can send your child back to school. At this point, there should be nothing left on the head that is capable of moving onto another head. However, this does not mean your child is lice free.

Orientation Evening / Curriculum Night is held as part of the first Family Meeting. Parents meet with teachers in the classroom to discuss the year's curriculum. Family conferences are scheduled twice a year, and twice yearly parents receive a report describing their child's progress.

A school newsletter, which includes a detailed calendar of events, is distributed monthly.

Students do not need to be kept out of school. The student with TB is being treated and will return to school when no longer able to spread TB. Students who have had TB in the past or latent TB do not need to be kept home as they cannot spread TB. Only students with active TB in the lungs need to be kept home until treatment has been started and are no longer able to spread TB.

A range of educational options are available for children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Within South Australia, there are independent schools, Catholic Schools and state schools (Department of Education and Children’s Services). About one third of students with an Autism Spectrum Disorder attend mainstream schooling and access the regular curriculum. A further one third attend special small classes in a variety of settings and the remaining third of students attend special schools.

The official recommendation is six days after the rash begins. They may return even earlier if all the lesions have crusted over before this time. However, despite what experts say, daycare facilities and schools often have their own idiosyncratic rules that may require the child to stay out longer than this. If this is the case, sometimes it is helpful to have a pediatrician come and talk with the daycare facility or school about what is medically the optimal time to exclude these children.

ADHD is a medical condition and the educational staff of a school are not qualified to diagnose ADHD. If you believe your child may have symptoms of ADHD, then you should consult with your family doctor, your child's pediatrician, or other licensed medical/mental health professional who is trained in the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. Teachers and other school personnel can play an important role by evaluating your child's learning ability and determine educational deficits.
