Extractions: back Parents are sometimes surprised to find that they have as many questions about raising teens as they had when they were raising toddlers. Some of the hardest questions concern teens' risk-taking behaviorusing drugs, for example. Below, teen health experts respond to common questions about teen drug abuse and what a parent can do to raise healthy, drug-free teenagers. 1. I've recently discovered that my daughter smokes cigarettes. What can I do to help her stop? You are not alone. Most adult smokers started before age 18. Each day more than 4,000 kids try their first cigarette and more than 2,000 teens under 18 become new, regular smokers. This means there are more than 730,000 new, underage daily smokers each year. This year, more than 377,000 teens already have become regular smokers. Of these, 120,000 will die prematurely from their addiction. Encourage your daughter to become involved in various sports. Studies show that smoking decreases substantially with an increase in the number of sports played. Athletics also help prevent weight gain that sometimes happens when a person quits smoking. If your child is seeking work, insist that she work only in a smoke-free workplace.

It's free! Save it. Doctors have been sounding the alarm for a while now about how book-laden packs can cause back problems in kids. That's not the only concern, though. When researchers reviewed emergency room records of 247 school-age children with backpack-related injuries, they found that kids showing up at ERs were more likely to have been hurt tripping over backpacks than wearing them. Part of the problem is that the heavy packs are so uncomfortable that kids take them off whenever possible, creating a tripping hazard in hallways and on sidewalks, says study coauthor Dr. Eric J. Wall, assistant professor of pediatric orthopedics at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. To help avoid mishaps, follow these tips:

Extractions: by Robin F. Goodman, Ph.D., A.T.R.-BC Introduction Understanding the child who is new to a school or area A parent's concern - a place to start Helping the child who is new to a school or area ... Helping the child who is precocious Introduction For some children, making the transition from summer to school requires more than having the right book bag or sneakers. When parents have particular concerns about a child advance preparation can smooth the way. This article describes some common child and family issues and offers parents suggestions for helping their kids. Back to top. A parent's concern - a place to start Not all children are excited and eager about facing the first day of school. For the child with a less confident style, a learning problem, a mental health issue, or a stressful situation at home, school may present a special challenge. Yet with proper preparation the school year can be rewarding for child, parent, and teacher. Although no parent or child wants to be labeled by a particular problem, understanding a child's unique style or situation, recognizing his or her strengths and weaknesses, anticipating potential trouble spots, and communicating with educational staff can start things off on a positive note and avoid wasted time later in the year.
