We are lucky to work with consultant experts who have chosen to provide us with information because of our honesty, integrity and goals.  They feel that there is important information not reaching parents.  They have chosen to work with us as a fun way to get important information to families.

 Often we parents think that there is no information out there on a topic but there have been conclusive studies just not reaching the public, getting lost in sensational scare stories that 'sell papers' but leave the public mislead.

Our experts are working with us to set parents straight when there is real information.

Dr Ned Calonge is the Chief Medical Officer of Colorado.  He sets the health policy for the state, and the agenda for children's health.  He has given two presentations to Paranoid Parents in Denver.

 Dr Calonge's interesting points for parents:

Look to do activities that develop your children's brain as opposed to learning tools for memorizing.  Interaction with parents is what develops brains not finding a learning device that occupies your child, like a baby sitter. 

Some activities expand the synapses in the brain--that is what you go for.   Bouncers just distance you from your child.  Unfortunately, there are no short cuts or easy ways...your child needs you and human interaction. 

There are studies that 'prove' what makes your child's brain grow--we will be bringing you that information.

Trampolines are a complete NO.

No child in America has ever come down with a case of West Nile disease.  He does not see the need for two hourly applications of insect repellant.  It does however hit adults.

Thinner children do better at school.
