    Candy or money as a reward? The answer might surprise you (From the “In It” podcast) Jan 08, 2025
    Show notes

    This week on Parenting Behavior, we’re sharing an episode of another great Understood.org podcast, In It, where Dr. Andy Kahn is a regular guest. The show is all about raising kids who learn and think differently.

    On this episode, Andy joins the In It hosts to talk about a big parenting debate: Bribes vs. rewards.

    You probably know how it goes: Your child is refusing to do something that, to you, seems super reasonable. Do you offer them a reward to get them to cooperate? Where is the line between bribery and rewarding a child? Will that ruin them?

    Listen to get Andy’s expert advice, and follow In It wherever you get your podcasts.

    “Is my child lonely?” What to do when your child is struggling socially Dec 17, 2024
    Show notes

    There’s nothing quite as heartbreaking as the question, “Is my child lonely?”

    It’s common for parents to worry if a child is having challenges connecting, or if their social skills seem like they're not aligned with their peers.

    But it’s also important to consider our perceptions as parents. Are the concerns legit, or do we just need to look differently at our child?

    On this episode of Parenting Behavior, host Dr. Andy Kahn talks about loneliness and social skills for kids.

    Show notes

    Sometimes, our kids just won’t try anything new. This can be something small, like not wanting to try a new food. But it can also be a bigger issue, like your child refusing to go to a new after-school activity they’ve joined.

    On this episode of Parenting Behavior, host Dr. Andy Kahn will talk about how to get your child to engage in new activities, especially those that make them feel afraid or anxious.

    But assistive technology can be helpful for people with ADHD. Options range from virtual calendars and voice recording apps to things that don’t even seem like “technology” at all.
