By Abby R. Rosenberg, JAMA Pediatrics, April 14, 2020 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is affecting our health care community in unprecedented ways.

I am sick of it too. I am a Diaper Bank Member of the National Diaper Bank Network, a national non-profit founded by Joanne Goldblum in 2011. See Huggies Every Little Bottom Study/2010.

Laura Pinhey ·
FLINT, Mich. — A baby born in Flint, Mich., where I am a pediatrician, is likely to live almost 20 fewer years than a child born elsewhere in the same county. She’s a baby like any other, with wide eyes, a growing brain and a vast, bottomless innocence — too innocent to understand the injustices that without her knowing or choosing have put her at risk. Some of the babies I care for have the bad luck to be born into neighborhoods where life expectancy is just over 64 years. Only a few miles...

Increasing Resilience: Primary Healthcare Providers' Opportunities to Promote Protective Factors Before and After Childhood Trauma [avahealth.org]

By Machelle D. Madsen Thompson and Bart Klika, Academy on Violence and Abuse, March 2020 Lifespan research reveals that although ACEs are common, many people are able to move toward recovery and achieve reportedly good functional status. This resilience does not occur in isolation but is supported by a composite of protective factors that empower a child to return to functional status following ACEs. Resilience is observed when a child is immersed in positive influences, such as supportive...

How Meltdowns Can Manifest Resilience

As a primary care pediatrician, I spend most of my days talking about things that are hard for families. Parents ask what to do when their child won't poop on the potty. Or how to get their baby to sleep longer or how to get their teenager to wake up earlier. They ask how to get their child to sit in the car seat or what to do when they get car sick on long rides. And over the years I have developed a list of problem-solving strategies to help. But the one that has recently become my...
