Michelle's Blog: My Son's Battle with Tics
http://michellefiore.blogspot.com/2014/06/tics-and-pediatricians-diagnosis.html
Saturday, June 21, 2014. My Son's Battle with Tics. We first noticed my sons Tics during our trip to Disney. Initially, we thought it was something he was doing on purpose and we asked him to stop! They didn't even understand why his Pediatrician would consider it as a diagnosis for there were no apparent signs or symptoms of that syndrome. They did say that he had a mild form of ADHD but the primary area of concern was Anxiety. They recommended therapy and Behavioral Modification. Therefore,...Not only ...

Saturday, June 14, 2014. Bullies - A Parents Story. Running to my mother every time I had an issue with another kid. We worked it out on our own and moved on. As I grew older, I remember two specific days where I encountered a Bully. I don't remember their names and I barely recall what they said. However, I do remember standing up for myself and the fact that those two girls never bothered me again. This gave me a tremendous sense of pride. I stood up for myself and won! Will get in trouble! I waited we...

Michelle's Blog: Losing the Baby-Weight
http://michellefiore.blogspot.com/2014/06/losing-baby-weight.html
Thursday, June 19, 2014. Let me say, I had the hardest. Time losing weight after my children were born. I gained 60 pounds while I was pregnant with both of my kids! When my first child was born, it was somewhat easier. I nursed and had plenty of opportunities to take her out for walks. Two years later, though, after my son was born losing weight became more difficult. I don't know if it was because I was older, tired or just plain too busy to exercise but the weight stayed on! I went up 3 dress sizes!

Friday, June 13, 2014. However, as the months passed by and the due date became closer and closer the anxiety went away. In it's place; anticipation. I just couldn't wait to meet my little girl.

http://michellefiore.blogspot.com/2014/07/are-we-teaching-our-kids-right-coping.html
Thursday, July 17, 2014. Are we Teaching Our Kids the Right Coping Skills? Something happened to our generation. We have become a society over scheduling, stressed out, helicopter parents. We are so afraid to let our children outside unsupervised that we are scheduling them for a ton of activities to keep them from being bored. What is so wrong with being bored? From boredom comes inspiration; a chance to find out what sparks your interest. You name it, they've tried it! And "Where are we going? When I i...
