In this final episode of the Parent Them Successful Podcast, I wanted to leave you with a reminder about your parent rights. Knowing your parent rights is crucial as you advocate for the best quality education possible in your child’s educational journey. You are truly their best advocate. Use your parent rights as a guide to help you hold schools accountable for providing your child with the education that they are supposed to receive. In this episode, I leave you with my final thoughts as I close out my podcasting journey. I discuss parent rights for children on IEP’s, 504 Plans, and for those not in a particular program (General Education). So, tune in until the end to hear my insights on what you need to hold fast to while you help your child thrive.

In this episode of the Parent Them Successful Podcast, we uncover what to look for if you believe your child has an undetected hearing defect. In the IEP world, hearing defects, or as IDEA calls it, possible “Hard of Hearing” eligibility, is considered a low-incidence eligibility category. That means that this eligibility category is somewhat rare and special funding is set aside for these students to access equipment and other tools they may need to access the general curriculum. So, if you suspect your child is suffering from a hearing defect, I will share what to look for, misbehaviors that are often misdiagnosed, and treatment options. So, tune in until the end to learn more about what you need to know.

In this episode, I did something a little different. Have you ever looked at your own parenting style and compared it to how you were parented growing up? Maybe you have certain traditions or sayings that your parents used when parenting you or perhaps it’s how you nurture your child’s talents. Sometimes we also may notice some of the things our parents did that we may not want to carry on in our own parenting journey and that’s perfectly fine, too. If you are co-parenting, you must take on a style that joins both of your backgrounds together. If you are single parenting, you may have to make adjustments based on your particular circumstance using whatever support system you have. Well, growing up in a single-parent home allowed me to see many of the sacrifices my mother had to make but the way she parented me also made me the person I am today. So, I interviewed my mother, Linda Sagoe, in this episode to impart her wisdom to all of us.

In this episode, we talk about procrastination. Has your child ever come to you the night before a project is due or an event is scheduled only to tell you that they need supplies before tomorrow? So in your anger and haste, you run to the store to get them everything they need at the last minute. Or maybe your child simply starts getting ready for school or camp 10 minutes before it’s time to leave only to have you running late AGAIN!!! If it’s any consolation, you’re not alone. I’ve experienced this too, and it is so frustrating. That’s why I share practical strategies you can use to help your child overcome procrastination.

In this episode, we talk about the power of rest! We have such a go-go-go culture that we hardly have time to rest, but there is a secret to rest and its rejuvenating properties. As a parent of 4 children, my schedule is super busy, especially as I creatively juggle work, business, and social outings. I know that I need rest to prevent me from feeling so overwhelmed or even to recover from feeling overwhelmed. It is owed to me, and I don’t feel guilty about it. There are 5 main reasons why you do not want to underestimate the power of rest in your parenting journey. Simply put, doing nothing can make you better.

In this episode, we discuss intergenerational trauma. This inherited trauma can make deep imprints on your overall well-being. The trauma responses you experience today can sometimes be rooted in past experiences you may not have been present for originally. Maybe you weren’t abused growing up, but your parents or grandparents were. Maybe you didn’t face discrimination or live through a war, but your great-grandparents did. Factors such as these can have negative effects on familial relationships and impact how your children navigate life. Our expert guest educates us about intergenerational trauma while sharing his personal story of trial and triumph within his relationship with his father.

Did you know that about 11.6% of kids had anxiety in 2012, up 20% from 2007? But during the pandemic, those numbers nearly doubled, such that 20.5% of youth worldwide now struggle with anxiety symptoms, as reported by the American Psychological Association. So if your child is in that number, they are not alone. I often get asked what causes my child’s anxiety? It could be a number of factors such as any unexpected change or instability, loss, serious illness, death of a loved one, violence, or abuse. Of course these are just a few situations that can lead some kids to become anxious. Sometimes it could simply be learned behavior. Growing up in a family where others are fearful or anxious also can "teach" a child to be afraid too. But interventions can help them overcome, especially in the form of stories. That’s why , I share my top 12 children’s books that help children manage worry and anxiety. (This is not an exhaustive list but a great resource to get you started.) So, tune in until the end to hear more about what these books have to offer.

With all the therapy options out there for children who struggle with behavior regulation, ABA is one of the most commonly used ones and it has proven results. One great resource to use is AutismSpeaks.org to learn more about Autism Spectrum Disorders and treatment. If you suspect your child or a child you know is on the Autism spectrum, this is a great resource. Listen closely as I breakdown what you need to know and how you can access this type of therapy for your child or the child in your life.

In this episode, we talk about the summer slip n slide. No, not the fun swim-like activity that gives you a high water bill, but the one that will have your child forgetting so much of what was learned throughout the year. You may have heard it under other names like learning regression, learning loss, or the summer slide. Basically, it refers to the phenomenon where students, particularly school-aged children, experience a loss of academic skills and knowledge over the summer break when they are not actively engaged in learning. But guess what! You can help your child maintain their skills or better yet, get ahead of their peers. I cover what you can do to mitigate learning loss with fun activities and easy strategies.

This episode is particularly relevant for many parents: "Why is my child unmotivated in school?" It’s not because they are lazy. It’s because they are unmotivated.

If you notice that your child has issues with motivation, the first step is to figure out what is standing in their way. It’s important to get to the root cause of the unmotivation. But don’t worry because we explore common reasons behind a lack of motivation and offer actionable tips to reignite your child's academic drive.

In this episode, I share with you some very powerful information about sleep health and your child’s learning, growth, and development. Anyone who knows me knows that I love talking about sleep health. This is often one of the first things I ask students about when I do student interviews. I want to know what time they usually go to bed and wake up. I want to know if they sleep through the night or are they often awakened. This gives me a lot of insight into the problems they are having in school. This is why we take a deep dive in the science of sleep and how it might be the reason behind why your child is struggling, behaviorally or academically. A good night's rest just might just be the answer.

In this episode, I walk you through the process of what happens next after your child is found eligible for special education services. Your child maybe 3 or 13. No matter the age, it’s important for you to understand what it means to have a child on an Individualized Education Plan/Program (IEP). I share with you what you should expect from now on, and also what you may ask for now that your child is receiving services. I will explain placement and the fact that eligibility does not drive placement while dispelling common beliefs about special education. Listen until the end to get full clarity around this topic!

In this episode, we talk about talk about a disorder you may or may not have heard about yet but that is growing very popular. In the rapidly evolving digital age, the intersection of technology and various aspects of human life is becoming increasingly apparent. One intriguing concept that has emerged is “virtual autism,” a phenomenon where prolonged exposure to virtual environments might mimic autism-like behaviors in individuals. This new condition may explain the trend in social communication deficits that are pervasive in schools and child development centers these days. So let’s talk about this new phenomenon and learn and grow together. Stick around to find out how this is different from traditional Autism Spectrum Disorders and if any child in your life might be in actuality experiencing characteristics of virtual autism.

In this episode, we talk about your struggling reader. Every year, I look at the referrals for special education testing that come across my desk and the #1 reason for referral is for children who are reading well below grade level. The #2 type of referral is for the Autism eligibility. It is quite clear that poor reading skills are a major concern for many - not just the teachers but for parents, too. Think about how you felt when you attended the parent-teacher conference where you were told that your child is “far behind in reading”. Maybe there were discussions about memory issues, not knowing letter sounds, not being able to sound out CVC words, and so on. If this has been your story, I share some very important steps you need to take before you even consider special education test. Why? Because sometimes a reading problem can be corrected with interventions and other times, there truly is a handicapping condition. So be sure to stick around for some important information to consider and also this week’s parenting challenge and your loving reminder. You definitely don’t want to miss it!
