We applaud the Senate Commerce Committee for advancing the bill and maintaining the inclusion of โ€˜duty of careโ€™ language that would require platforms to take steps to prevent and mitigate foreseeable harms to minors. We urge Congress to now pass this version of the bill to help ensure that all children and youth are safe online.Join our association in urging Congress to pass the bill. Take action today and send a message to your members of Congress.More info: pta.quorum.us/campaign/PTAKOSA/ ...

And showing children how to cope effectively with uncomfortable emotions is one of the most important ways we can support their wellbeing and development.Healthy coping skills take many forms, including mindfulness, exercise, deep breathing, and positive self-talk. They help us manage our most intense emotions, and theyโ€™re also linked to lower levels of impulsivity.Children pick up behavior patterns from adults, so one of the best ways to teach your kids good coping skills is to practice them yourself.Read here: childmind.org/article/how-to-model-healthy-coping-skills/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&... ...
