If your child struggles to read, it can be heartbreaking to see them miss out on the joys of learning through the written word. There’s one often overlooked factor that can make or break a child’s reading journey, and that is their nutrition. naturedoc.com/nutrition-stra…

@flowidealism @FamilyGiggles And nutrition really counts when a child’s reading age is behind naturedoc.com/nutrition-stra…

If your child becomes a reader, about 80% of the education job is already done. That's my honest assessment after working in education for over thirty years. Everything else is secondary. Most parents think science education is important. Yes it is. But if you can't read the biology textbook, you're not going to learn biology. Reading is the meta-skill that enables all other skills. History requires reading. Science requires reading. Even math increasingly requires reading as it becomes more sophisticated. The child who reads voraciously will figure out everything else. The child who doesn't will struggle with everything.

“There is no greater threat to the health of children and young adults than the silent mental health pandemic that has spiralled out of control,” says President @DrLadeSmith as she calls for better access to care & treatment. There were 1.2 million children and young people in contact with mental health services in England in 2024/25, an 118% rise on the 0.5 million since 2016/17. More: tinyurl.com/5d3hhueu

Shocking new MRI study on 3–5 year olds: Just 2 hours of interactive screen time per day is linked to measurable loss of white matter in the brain. Professor Mike Nagel (University of the Sunshine Coast): “White matter is myelin — it insulates axons like plastic on a wire. Deficits in myelin early in life mean deficits in neural connectivity.” The more screen time, the greater the white matter loss — especially in areas tied to language development and literacy. Nagel’s first reaction (as a researcher and father): “Wow… I was not anticipating seeing anything like that. It hadn’t occurred to me that something as little as two hours a day was having such a profound effect.” Parents: Has this changed how you think about screen time limits for young kids — or do you think the risks are overstated?
