    Nemours was an amazing place for my child’s care when he was young and dealing with health issues. Nice of them to cover so many useful topics in their content.

    I like that there’s a wide variety of topics, some that can even be informative for adults, and you can pick a choose what you want to listen to based on your needs. The episodes are quick but direct and, so far, seem to have evidence based data for their assertions

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 207: How Parents' Screen Habits Shape Children's Health
Q: What does problematic caregiver internet use look like in real life?
Caregivers fall into two main categories—harmful, disruptive use that harms children, and excessive use that reduces emotional availability but can also normalize device use as a coping mechanism.
Ep. 207: How Parents' Screen Habits Shape Children's Health
Q: Give us the broad view of how you are presenting this.
The presenter explains that as society moves further into daily life with digital devices, parents' usage affects how they parent, which in turn impacts children's mental health and development.
Ep. 210: Making Health Information More Human
Q: What inspired you to take your health expertise into the community and the streets with a camera to create Grapevine Health?
Dr. Fitzpatrick explains that distrust stems from medical language that isn't plain or accessible, and she was motivated by conversations in churches, health fairs, and home visits where people expressed that simpler explanations would help them trust and make better health decisions.
Ep. 215: The Science Behind Resilient Kids
Q: Can you give an example of HOPE in action outside the doctor's office?
In San Diego County, the YMCAs adopted HOPE for staff training, transforming front desk interactions into engagement opportunities, which showed how supportive relationships and meaningful participation can boost wellbeing on a broad scale.
Ep. 215: The Science Behind Resilient Kids
Q: What is HOPE, and how did it emerge from ACEs and your own research?
HOPE is a framework that identifies four building blocks—relationships, safe environments, opportunities for emotional growth, and social engagement—that help every child thrive, regardless of trauma, and it emerged from synthesizing literature and practical observations in pediatric care.
