When Republicans passed their big budget bill in 2025, they thought the effects of cuts to health programs wouldn't show up until after the 2026 midterms. They were wrong. Meanwhile, the party is trumpeting its efforts to lower drug prices. Lauren Weber of The Washington Post, Shefali Luthra of The 19th, and Maya Goldman of Axios join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss these stories and more. Also this week, Rovner interviews KFF Health News' editor-at-large for public health, Céline Gounder, to discuss the Ebola outbreak. Visit our website for a transcript of this episode.Plus, for “extra credit” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too: Julie Rovner: ProPublica's “She Faced a Life-Threatening Miscarriage.

If your morning routine for preschool looks less like a smooth routine and more like 21 rounds of "no", "stop", and "not like that" before 8 am, then things aren't working well for either of you. In this episode, we walk through one ordinary preschool morning minute by minute, from the cereal bowl to the car seat buckle. We also learn how to move from: "how do I get my child to cooperate" to: what is going on inside my child's body right now, and what are they trying to communicate through the flopping, dawdling, silliness, and defiance? Because when you understand that, you can find strategies that meet both of your needs. Questions This Episode Will Answer Why is my child so difficult in the morning? Preschoolers live almost entirely in the present moment and learn through movement and touch. When a morning is filled with a steady stream of corrections, their nervous system experiences it as "everything I do is wrong" - and the silliness, defiance, or shutdown you see is their body's response to that overload. Why is my child grumpy in the morning? It's often less about the time of day and more about the cumulative weight of limits. When children experience correction after correction with little room for exploration or connection, grumpiness and shutdown are common signals that their needs aren't being met. Why do kids dilly-dally and dawdle in the morning? What looks like dawdling is often a child following genuine curiosity, moving their body the way it wants to go, or trying to connect with you before the day pulls you apart. What is meant by "behavior is communication"? Preschoolers don't yet have the words to say "this is too much for me" or "I need to feel close to you right now". So they show you with their bodies. Finger-stirring cereal, flopping on the floor, asking to be carried - each of these is a message, if you know how to listen for it. When you understand that message you can help them meet their need - which also meets your needs for peace, ease, and order. Is misbehavior an unmet need? Often, yes. When you look beneath challenging behaviors in young children, you frequently find unmet needs for things like autonomy, movement, connection, or play. The behavior is a signal pointing you toward what your child actually needs. If you want to find out your child's biggest need (and easy, actionable strategies to meet it that make your life easier), take this free quiz. What are some reasons children misbehave? In early childhood, most challenging behavior traces back to a mismatch between a child's developmental capacity and what's being asked of them, combined with needs they're trying to meet in ways you're finding irritating. Preschoolers aren't misbehaving to make your life harder. They don't know how else to meet their needs. What You'll Learn in This Episode How to walk through a typical preschool morning routine and see it through your child's eyes, moment by momentWhat your child's most frustrating behaviors (flopping, dawdling, silliness, defiance) are often communicating about their needsWhy the total number of corrections across a morning matters as much as any single limit you setWhat your needs are in the morning routine, and why they are just as valid as your child's needsHow it's possible to meet your needs AND your child's needsHow to start moving toward fewer, clearer limits that your preschooler's nervous system can actually work withWhat the research on parent-child interaction patterns tells us about where repeated correction leads over timeHow parents who grew up in homes with heavy compliance expectations describe the long-term effects on themselves and their own parenting To help you put the ideas from this episode into practice, I've created a free worksheet: Your Difficult Morning Audit. You'll count your corrections, sort them, and start to see which limits are truly necessary - and which ones are habit. Get The Morning Audit Worksheet For Free If you thought "that's my kid" or "that's our mornings" - the Setting Loving (& Effective) Limits workshop is for you. Learn how to see how many limits you're actually setting, sort them into what's truly necessary and what can soften or disappear, and practice holding fewer, clearer limits in a way your child's nervous system can actually handle. You get short focused modules, three live group coaching calls where you can bring your real situations, and a community of parents working through the same things. The self-guided workshop is available year-round, but every April we run it live to give you even more support. Enrollment is open until April 26. Until April 16 at midnight Pacific, you can Pay What You Want:- any amount (even $1) gets you full access. You choose what you pay. After that, the price moves up to a fixed rate. If you're ready to move from correction-heavy mornings to fewer, truer limits your preschooler can actually live with, come join us in the Setting Loving (& Effective!) Limits workshop. Enrollment is open until April 26 Jump to highlights: 01:27 Introduction to today's episode 05:48 The behavior isn't defiance - it's communication about their needs. 08:21 Young children live in the present moment and learn through movement and repetition rather than explanations. 10:45 You're not the villain for wanting things to go smoothly. Getting out the door, you need to meet your responsibility to co-workers while staying connected to your kid. 13:58 Your child needs connection, autonomy, movement, exploration, play, and fun. You need ease, harmony, collaboration, and responsibility to others. 16:45 The Gottman research on couples suggests we need about five positive interactions for every negative one to stay connected. 18:43 As a young child, Crystal learned to read the room constantly. As a teenager, she rebelled hard and ended up heavily involved in drugs and alcohol. 30:38 Wrapping up the discussion. 31:40 An open invitation to Setting Loving (&Effective) Limits workshop.

She's back and she brought receipts!Tiffany "The Budgetnista" Aliche is one of the most iconic voices in personal finance, and if you missed her first episode on YQD, it became the highest-watched episode in the show's history. Dead ass. So yeah, we had to bring her back. This time, Tiffany is opening up about EVERYTHING — from the $35,000 scam that left her broke and sleeping on her sister's couch, to building an eight-figure net worth, to why she's still learning how to stop giving her money away to people who didn't even ask for it. She also drops the full framework from her bestselling book Get Good With Money, now available in paperback, and why that book hits differently after everything she's been through personally.

Paige interviews Emily Munson, a preschool teacher in an early childhood classroom for children who are medically complex. Emily shares her journey of finding her way to her dream classroom. She tells how she includes children who are blind and low vision, and gives a sneak peek into her favorite lesson to teach. Jenny, Paige, and Cathy discuss the powerful impact of preschool. They reflect on the way that Emily seamlessly integrates strategies into the environment that help children thrive and ease parental anxiety. The group dives deep into the importance of observation as a foundational tool for both teachers and families. Jenny and Paige emphasize that learning to "watch and wait" is a vital skill for families before jumping into action. The conversation also covers the often-daunting transition from early intervention to preschool. Cathy breaks down the role of Child Find, a federal requirement that ensures children are evaluated for special education services, and how the process varies by state. Paige shares how early intervention programs support families through this eligibility process. Finally, the team discusses the importance of trusting your instincts when choosing a school and utilizing State Early Learning Guidelines to ensure children are getting the support they need. https://www.understood.org/en/articles/child-find-what-it-is-and-how-it-works  We love voicemail!

Fewer than 1 in 4 preschoolers get enough daily movement, which affects how their bodies, brains, and confidence develop during the most important growth window of their lives Structured environments, like childcare settings, naturally increase activity through routines and transitions, while unstructured home days often lead to long stretches of sitting that weaken healthy habits The KID-FIT trial is testing whether a playful, school-based movement curriculum strengthens fitness, motor skills, and long-term activity patterns in young children The reinstated Presidential Fitness Test reflects a renewed national push toward measurable standards and highlights the value of helping children face challenges, identify strengths, and build resilience Parents can reverse inactivity by creating simple, predictable movement routines at home, turning fitness into a family experience, and using playful challenges to boost motivation and self-efficacy

If you work with preschoolers with autism and you care about spoken language outcomes, this episode matters. A lot. In today's episode of The Preschool SLP Podcast, we unpack the largest study to date examining why some autistic children do not develop spoken language, even after receiving high-quality, evidence-based early intervention. The takeaway is blunt: Motor imitation doesn't matter a little. It matters a lot. Inside this episode, we cover: Why one-third of autistic preschoolers in a large, multi-site study did not advance in spoken language despite receiving ~10 hours/week of evidence-based intervention How motor imitation emerged as a key distinguishing factor between children who advanced in speech and those who did not What neuroscience tells us about mirror neurons, empathy, perspective-taking, and speech development Why speech develops from the inside out: core → proximal → distal → speech. And, what happens when we skip the body and go straight to the mouth How motor imitation supports: Entry into peer play Social communication Speech motor planning and execution Prefrontal–cerebellar connectivity Why this research gives us a “crystal ball”—not to maintain the status quo, but to do something different earlier You can't build speech on a system that can't yet support posture, movement, imitation, and motor planning. If motor imitation is weak, speech outcomes are at risk, pretending otherwise doesn't help children. Clinical bottom line: If a child presents with: Severe autism presentation Limited or absent spoken language Poor motor imitation Then motor imitation must be intentionally built into intervention, alongside AAC, multimodal cueing, movement-based learning, and robust communication supports. This episode challenges us to stop treating mouths—and start treating children.

Send us a textTwo parenting seasons, one throughline: regulation before strategy. We dive into the real-world challenges parents face with young kids and teens, unpacking why tantrums are developmentally normal, how to coach emotions without fueling the fire, and the science-backed way to get better listening without repeating yourself a hundred times. If you've ever wondered what to say when a child shouts “I hate you” or how to stop a power struggle before it begins, you'll find practical language you can use today.We start with early childhood: how to keep your cool during meltdowns, use effective instruction delivery to boost cooperation, and teach sharing, turn-taking, and conflict repair without over-coaching. You'll learn why “calm down” backfires, how to match expectations to developmental level, and when stepping back actually speeds social learning among peers. The goal isn't to eliminate big feelings; it's to build a calm nervous system in you and a growing skill set in your child.Then we shift to adolescence, where emotions run hot and connection can feel distant. We talk about granting space in the moment, returning to tough topics when everyone's regulated, and setting clear boundaries that support independence. You'll hear concrete ways to explain curfews and consequences, avoid win-lose standoffs, and open ongoing conversations about anxiety, depression, and stress. Worried about self-harm? We model how to ask directly and why that question can be life-giving. Throughout, we keep the focus on relationship, clarity, and timing—three levers that quietly transform daily conflict into teachable moments.If this episode hits home, share it with a friend, subscribe for more conversations like this, and leave a review with the tip you're trying first.

Hey Friends~   If you've been leaning on screens to help your little one talk, you're not alone. It often feels like the easiest option — and with all the advertising, it can even seem like the smartest choice when you're worried.   But real language grows through real play.   With Christmas coming up, I'm sharing ten toys and games that you can suggest to gift-giving friends and family - so you get gifts that provide powerful, communication-building opportunities. These ideas are fun, practical, and designed to work with how your child's brain naturally learns. Your little one is wired for human connection. Speech and language grow best through back-and-forth interaction with you.   Those screens that promise to teach your child? They can't hold a candle to the power of parent–child engagement.

Welcome to Hacking your ADHD. I'm your host, William Curb, and I have ADHD. On this podcast, I dig into the tools, tactics, and best practices to help you work with your ADHD brain. Today I'm joined by Skye Waterson for our Research Recap series. In this series, we take a look at a single research paper, dive into what the paper says, how it was conducted, and try to find any key practical takeaways—stuff that you can actually use. In this episode, we're going to be discussing a paper called Do Executive Dysfunction, Delay Aversion and Time Perception Deficits Predict ADHD Symptoms and Early Academic Performance in Preschoolers. And yeah, there's a lot in there, but don't worry, we'll be getting into all of it. Before we get started, I want to mention that this is still a new series, so we're going to be figuring out what works and what doesn't, and I'd love to hear what you all think of it. So if you have thoughts, head on over to hackingyouradhd.com/contact and let me know. I appreciate all the feedback I've already gotten, and we're definitely going to be working on organizing the episodes a little bit more to help you get the most out of every one. New episodes of Research Recap will be coming out every other Friday. And with that, let's get into it.
