Alcoholic Parent: Its Effects on Kids “The nights that year were so difficult for Sareena. Her father was struggling with instability at work. As a result of the stress, he had started drinking every night. For a 15 years old, who had been so close to her parents, these daily fights at home between her parents and hearing the bottles crashing on the floor was nothing less than a nightmare.” Alcohol is just another drink consumed by people all over the world. A few of the many ways in which alcoholic parents affect kids are: Emotional health Environment at home contributes a lot to the mental and emotional health of a child. Sense of responsibility Children have to act far beyond their age. Embarrassment It becomes difficult for kids to take their parents to gatherings. Nor a child can prevent his parents from falling prey to alcoholism, neither can he solely make them sober.
Kollegial handledning kring elever med autism och adhd | Ett stöd för lärare och länk mellan elevhälsa och klassrum Chrome App and Extension Database | Shake Up Learning There are now 150+ Chrome Apps and Extensions in this database. I have put together a Google Chrome App and Extension Database for Teachers (also at the bottom of this post) that is loaded with apps and extensions for productivity and classroom integration. If you have followed this blog for any length of time, you probably know that I love the Google Chrome web browser! The magic of that customization comes from the Chrome Apps and Chrome Extensions available in the Chrome Web Store. What are Chrome Apps? Apps are often enhanced shortcuts that optimize the website or app within the browser. What are Chrome Extensions? Extensions are installed in the browser and give you added features and abilities to customize your browser. Warning! The Chrome Apps & Extensions Database For a while, I have kept a list of my favorite apps and favorite extensions on this site, but my list just keeps growing! The database includes 150+ Apps and Extensions and is searchable and filterable. Summary Article Name
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: Techniques for Retraining Your Brain Why is it so hard to lose weight, stop smoking, or establish healthy habits? Why do couples argue about the same issues over and over? Why do so many people lie awake at night, stricken with worry and anxiety? Why is it so difficult to come to terms with a loved one’s death, even if it’s after a long illness? Show Full Description Hide Full Description The answers to these questions—and the path to lasting change in your life—lie in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a well-tested collection of practical techniques for managing moods and modifying undesirable behaviors through self-awareness, critical analysis, and taking steps toward gradual, goal-oriented change. CBT illuminates the links between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical health and uses those connections to develop concrete plans for self-improvement. As a special feature of this course, you’ll observe CBT session scenarios between Professor Satterfield and three “patients”: The Science of Lasting Change
Varför är det så svårt att skriva i skolan? Del 3 – Tydlighet | ETT ANNAT SÄTT ATT TÄNKA Många elever med autism har svårt att skriva i skolan. Vad det kan bero på har jag skrivit om i ett tidigare blogginlägg. För många är ett av problemen att uppgiften inte är tillräckligt tydlig. En del saker som kan verka uppenbara för de flesta är inte alltid det för någon med autism. Därför behöver man informera även om detaljer. Min son Platon hade inte förstått att man fick hoppa över uppgifter i en läxa och gå tillbaka till dem senare. Tänk också på att det kan vara svårt att komma ihåg all information om den bara förmedlas muntligt. Här nedan följer några listor med exempel på vad man kan behöva informera om inför en skrivuppgift. Självklart måste man vara lika tydlig även när det gäller andra typer av uppgifter. Utformningen Hur många sidor/ord? Hur ska man göra? Samla ihop information på kort först? På Lärarnas riksförbund har Annika Sjödahl skrivit ett blogginlägg med fina bilder på hur själva skrivprocessen går till. Hur utför man den här typen av uppgift? Lyrik/poesi/dikter

Live 35 Years Longer Life’s too short. You may not have control over the giant meteor that hits you in the head while you’re walking down the street. But assuming your unlucky lottery number doesn’t come up, you have a remarkable amount of control over how long you live. It turns out, lifestyle is more important than genetics in determining how long you’ll live, according to a recent study from the University of Gothenburg published in the Journal of Internal Medicine. And luckily, the lifestyle changes that can score you more years can also score you more quality years, according to Eudene Harry, M.D., medical director for Oasis for Optimal Health wellness center in Orlando and author of Live Younger in 8 Simple Steps. To that end, we found eight healthy habits that can add 35 (spry) years to your retirement plan. When it comes to friendship, the more the merrier (and healthier). “The act of befriending actually enhances the production of oxytocin,” she says. Forget a numb behind.
