This recommendation comes after more than 50 years of research showing that levels of radiation used in modern X-ray machines are so low that the risk of harm is very small or even zero....

The Truth About The Influenza Vaccine

News media are reporting today that a mother blames the influenza vaccine for her son’s death. The death of a child is one of the most traumatic events a parent can experience, and this mother is experiencing tremendous grief. The fact is we don’t know what caused that child to die. To my knowledge, there has been no medical information shared to say the vaccine did nor did not cause the son’s death....

Why I Created The Make Safe Happen App

In 2010, my husband and I learned that we were expecting triplets. I will not tell you exactly what I said when the doctor did the ultrasound, but “Oh wow!” is a polite paraphrase. For the first time, we began implementing the safety advice I had been giving as an injury researcher for more than a decade – this time making our own house safer for our children. For example, we wanted to mount a baby gate at the top of our stairs, using brackets, screws and a drill....

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do 5 Tips For Helping Your Teen Navigate Their First Breakup

These relationships can end uneventfully, amicably or without drama, but due to teens’ undeveloped pre-frontal cortex, which controls judgement, risk taking and emotional regulation, combined with a lack of life experience, a breakup can result in a deep emotional pain that may have a long-lasting impact. How can you help your teen during this time?...
