Overscheduled Kids - PKTR 1


Here's the book the PKTR hosts referenced (and recommended) on the show today, September 22, 2007:
The Over-Scheduled Child: Avoiding the Hyper-Parenting Trap by Alvin Rosenfeld, MD, and Nicole Wise.

Rosenfeld and Wise also have a website named after that phrase they coined, Hyper Parenting. It's definitely worth a look.

Thanks, also to BP for the lovely little jingle, "Say Hey!" to make your day a little better.

Thanks for listening (and if you missed it, check out the archive to the right).

Tune in again next week when Parents and Kids bring you another topic. Call in and let us know your thoughts!

Dial in to 347.215.7870.

Today's show is about overscheduled kids. When is it time to slow down? Should you be involved in everything you're interested in? How do you know? Are the parents going crazy driving the kids around and providing snacks and uniforms?



Call in and tell us what you think.

P.S. Thanks to a great article, by Christine Gorman entitled, "Six Lessons for Handling Stress" we found the image to the left. If you're feeling like that (or even a little like that) call in!

Contest Rules and Guidlines

Here's how it works: we draw a winner at random by tallying the number of entries, then using the random number generator and checker at psychicscience.org/random.aspx. If you are the lucky winner, we'll announce your name on our show, then (once we receive your valid email address and snail mail address) send the item to you by snail mail.

You can only enter once per contest (be fair). If you enter more than once we'll disqualify you. The contest's ending date is decided by the Co-Hosts, and this date will be posted on our blog as soon as we decide. Void where prohibited, wherever that might be.

We'll do our best to mail your items to you as soon as we can, but remember, this is Parents and Kids Talk Radio. Lets just say we don't end up at the Post Office every day. Please keep that in mind. We're not responsible if the item gets lost in the mail. Also, we're not responsible if you send us the wrong address, or if it gets to the wrong house. Basically, if anything goes wrong it's not our fault.

Hat-tip to coolmompicks.com for their already-existing, amazing Contest Rules and Guidelines from which we heavily borrowed when writing our own. Thanks!
