Ann-Elizabeth Magiris: The Importance Of School Readiness Assessment Parents | Raising Parents #4108 Dec 202300:44:03

Starting school is such a big time in a childs life; being able to explore a bigger part of the world, meeting new people, new experiences and learning a lot of new things. While some countries do have specific ages a child should start primary school, some children are likely to hold more skills than others by the time they reach the school age. 

In today's episode of Raising Parents, Dina spoke to registered Psychologist, Ann-Elizabeth Magiris. Ann started working as an ABA therapist, in the early 2000’s, for children with autism. This led her to work with the Victorian school system to provide assessments for children learning difficulties and mental health plans. Ann-elizabeth became the owner of Healthy Young Minds in Bundoora, Victoria. HYM provides services on from School assessments and learning support to child counseling and parent coaching.

Tune into the episode to hear Ann and Dina define the “school readiness assessment” for parents and also provide information on what parents can do to prepare their children for school in the months before they’re set to start school.

Welcome to a new episode of Raising Parents: The Parenting Science Insights Podcasts, as we delve into the ever-evolving landscape of parenting. Parenting, as we know it, is shaped by a complex interplay of societal shifts, technological advancements, and evolving cultural norms. In recent years, a new term has emerged on the parenting scene: meta-parenting. 

This concept refers to the intentional practice of reflecting on and consciously managing one's parenting style, decisions, and beliefs. It's a self-aware and deliberate approach that recognizes the multifaceted challenges of raising children in our complex modern world.

Our host, Dina Sargeant, is joined by a distinguished guest, George W. Holden, a Professor Emeritus in the Psychology Department at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. George has a rich and diverse research background in social development, with a specific focus on parent-child relationships. His work spans areas such as parental social cognition and behavior, positive parenting, family violence, and discipline. Notably, George's research has received support from prestigious institutions, including the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the U.S. State Department. He is also the author or editor of several books, including "Parenting: A Dynamic Perspective," now in its 3rd edition.

Beyond his academic achievements, George's commitment to child welfare extends to his roles in organizations dedicated to ending the use of corporal punishment and preventing child maltreatment. He has received numerous accolades, including the Outstanding Mentor Award from the Society for Research in Human Development and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Center on the Human Rights of Children at Loyola University, Chicago.

Join us for this enlightening conversation as Dina and George explore the fascinating world of meta-parenting and its implications for modern parents. It's a journey into self-awareness and conscious parenting that promises to shed light on the challenges and opportunities of raising children in today's rapidly changing world.

Zahwa Islami, M. Psi : Triggers of conflict between parents and adolescents | Raising Parents #3125 Nov 202400:55:40

Welcome to a profound exploration of the intricate dance between parents and adolescents in this episode. As families traverse the transformative landscape of adolescence, conflicts become a pivotal part of the journey. This phase is a nexus of evolution, replete with physical, emotional, and cognitive shifts. Amidst these changes, parents and adolescents often find themselves at odds, grappling with contrasting perspectives, values, and priorities.

Self-compassion is a concept that has gained significant attention in recent years, as individuals strive to foster a healthier relationship with themselves. However, there are several misconceptions surrounding self-compassion that often hinder its practice and prevent individuals, including parents, from reaping its benefits.

Cynthia Andriani, M.Sc: Picky eating | Raising Parents #2904 Aug 202300:49:27

Picky eating,  also known as selective eating, refers to a behavior characterized by the reluctance to try or consume certain types of food. It is a common phenomenon among children and adults alike, and has been a topic of concern and curiosity for generations.

While some individuals may find delight in a wide variety of flavors and textures, others develop an aversion to certain foods, limiting their dietary preferences significantly. Those affected may exhibit a strong preference for specific flavors, textures, or colors, often leading to a limited and repetitive diet. 

Although it is a common occurrence during childhood, picky eating can persist into adolescence and adulthood, causing concern among parents, caregivers, and healthcare professionals.

Join host Dina Sargeant in this enlightening episode as she welcomes Cynthia Andriani, a working-studying mom and wife, who is also passionate about food research, science, kids, people, and social issues, especially malnutrition.

Emeritus Prof. J. David Hawkins: Preventing Teen Substance Abuse | Raising Parents #2803 Jul 202301:38:56

Adolescence is a time of exploration and self-discovery, often accompanied by a range of risky behaviors. While risk-taking is a natural part of adolescent development, excessive and uncontrolled behavior can have detrimental consequences. In order to navigate this crucial stage successfully, parents play a pivotal role in understanding, supporting, and guiding their children.

Adolescents are more prone to engage in risky behaviors due to various factors, including brain development, peer influence, and the desire for independence. The prefrontal cortex, responsible for decision-making and impulse control, undergoes significant development during this period. As a result, teenagers often exhibit increased sensitivity to reward and reduced sensitivity to potential risks, making them more likely to engage in thrill-seeking activities. Moreover, peer pressure and the need to fit in can lead adolescents to make impulsive choices without considering the potential consequences.

Join host Dina Sargeant in this enlightening episode as she welcomes J. David Hawkins. He is the Endowed Professor of Prevention Emeritus and Founding Director of the Social Development Research Group. He received his BA in 1967 from Stanford University and his Ph.D. in Sociology from Northwestern University in 1975. 

Moreover, David’s research focuses on understanding and preventing child and adolescent health and behavior problems. He seeks to identify risk and protective factors for health and behavior problems across multiple domains; to understand how these factors interact in the development of healthy behavior and the prevention of problem behaviors. He develops and tests preventative measures that seek to reduce risk through the enhancement of strengths and protective factors in families, schools, and communities.

During the episode, David emphasized the role of the environment and parents in responding to adolescent behavior and minimizing the risks that will occur.

Kantiana Taslim: Importance and Challenges of Children’s Sex Education | Raising Parents #1310 Feb 202301:14:05

Parents play a crucial role in preparing their children for the world and helping them grow with a good understanding of various situations, including sexual education. Sexual education may be a sensitive topic, but it is important to maintain open communication with children from an early age to provide them with accurate information and help them grow into responsible individuals. In this episode of Raising Parents, host Dina Sargeant is joined by Kantiana Taslim, a clinical psychologist from Indonesia. Kantiana practices at her clinic, Ohana Space, and covers a wide range of issues, including developmental issues in children, emotional issues in adolescents, and family issues that parents might seek help with. This week's episode is a bit different as Kantiana tried to get an initial understanding of sexual education from Dina. Kantiana then highlighted that in some cultures, particularly in Asia, sexual education is still considered as a taboo topic to discuss in public, even some people are still giggling when they talk about it. Afterward, Kantiana emphasized the importance of children learning about consent, healthy relationships, and gender identity, in addition to the biological aspects of sexuality. She also provided instances of situations and practices when children are involved in talk about sexual education.

Dr. Robert A Saul: Conscious Parenting | Raising Parents #1020 Jan 202301:20:30

How many of us have subconsciously set a standard of how your child should behave? If you have, chances are you’re not alone. Some parents have desires for their child’s life even before they’re born whether it's wanting your child to live a good life or to go to college when they get older. Conscious parenting aims to teach us to understand that our expectations may not be the reality. In this week’s episode our host, Dina Sargeant is joined by Pediatrician and author, Dr Robert A. Saul, who specializes in teaching parents to raise children to be a positive influence in society. He has studied and practiced his teachings for over 40 years, publishing four books on raising children. Dr. Saul talks about his previous work with children, professionally and personally, and how important it is to first be emotionally self-aware as an individual before being a parent. They talk about how allowing a child to be a child can create a healthy environment for growth, while also teaching them skills of mindfulness at an early age. Visit Dr. Robert Saul’s website at https://mychildrenschildren.com to learn more about him or find his different publications.
