Spare the Rod and Don't Spank the Child
Spare the rod, spoil the child. Most parents have heard this advice at some point. The idea is if you don’t spank your child when they misbehave, you’re setting them up to continue that behavior. Sixty-five percent of Americans approve of spanking children—and this trend has been increasing since 1990.

One simple test saved Lauren's life
When Lauren Doubleday was born, her parents were excited to welcome a happy, healthy baby girl. But less than 24 hours later, they were told that Lauren had a serious heart defect. The fact that this heart defect was even caught is thanks to one simple test - a pulse ox screening. For the past year, babies born at Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women & Babies have received additional screening to check the oxygen levels in their blood. This simple test can signal potential heart defects and allows our team to intervene as soon as possible.

School is in session. Are you ready?
Every summer seems to bring it’s own challenges: keeping the kids busy, finding the right camps and activities for them, and hopefully having a little family fun - all within two months! Even though the summers are busy, they bring us all a breather from homework, science projects, making lunches, teacher conferences, after school practices, reading every night (oh, wait, we were supposed to do that all summer, too, right?!). And suddenly, here we are, it’s mid August and whether we are ready or not, it’s time to jump into another school year.

Q & A on Scoliosis with Dr. Herrera and Dr. Knapp, Pediatric Orthopedic Physicians at Arnold Palmer Hospital
Scoliosis is a relatively common condition among children and adolescents. It’s important to know that no spine is perfectly flat, but those who are unaffected by scoliosis have a spine that is straight when looking up and down the middle of the back. Likewise, those who are affected by scoliosis have a curve that runs side-to-side, sometimes resembling the letters “S” or “C,” instead of the letter “I.”
What exactly is scoliosis and how common is it?
Scoliosis is a condition of the spine where your back may become curved with time. Not only is the spine curved, but it also rotates on its axis, which leads to the famous “rib hump,” noticed on the spine screenings done at school, or during yearly physicals administered by primary care physicians. -
