Behaviour

It is so wonderful to live in a country that is so culturally diverse. Canada is an accepting and welcoming country that encourages its cultural diversity and it is something we should all be proud of. We have a little bit of each country here and teaching your child about different cultures and traditions can ensure that your child grows to be accepting of all people.

If you are lucky enough to bypass childhood allergies with your own child it can be quite hard to understand if you are not living it. Although chances are, someone you know either in your child’s class or a friend/family member is affected by food allergies. Even if your child may not have allergies, it is more than likely that you have to be aware of what you are sending to school for snacks and lunches.

Peeling a child off of you who is absolutely terrified is one of the most heart wrenching experiences as a parent. Sometimes we can get to the root cause and help them understand or get through those fears while other times it seems like they are scared without reason.

There is always a reason and although you may never be able to determine what the root cause of the fear is, having the tools to help your child cope and manage those fears is the important part.
