In this episode, I chat with Dr Royette T. Dubar about her research paper, "What's your religious coping profile? Difference in religious orientation and subjective sleep among religious coping groups in the United States." Dr. Royette T. Dubar was born on the small Caribbean Island of Dominica (not to be confused with the Dominican Republic). While pursuing an Associate's Degree in General Liberal Arts at the University of St. Martin, she took her first Psychology course and developed a passion for studying human behaviour. Royette obtained a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology from Trent University and a Master's Degree in Child and Youth Studies from Brock University in Canada. Dr Dubar's dedication to understanding what factors contribute to youth well-being led her to explore the topic of sleep. Her research interests include the important role that sleep plays across multiple domains of psychosocial adjustment. She obtained her Ph.D. in Psychology from Brock University and is currently the Director of the Sleep and Psychosocial Adjustment Lab (Spa Lab) at Wesleyan University. In this episode, we discuss: Royette's background and interest in emerging adulthood The link between religiosity and sleep The cliché "One size fits all" The research paper What's your religious coping profile?

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: Where are we with viruses in 2020, and is worrying over a “tripledemic” worth the same amount of time and energy as previous years? Tim Hortons is now offering more than doughnuts, more than soup, more than muffins and… whatever that steak sandwich was they were pitching for a while… now they have fashionable Timmies apparel.

Kids going back to school – or heading into it for the first time – face separation anxiety and other mental health challenges.

They're joined by Kath Hennell, Senior Lecturer in Childhood and Youth Studies, who explores the key ingredients of a 'proper night out' for young women and men. What are the hidden, gendered rules which inform a ritual involving extreme intoxication? Producer: Jayne Egerton

As most of you have gathered by now, I've spent hundreds of hours researching the topic of gender ideology. And I've done so because I believe it's the most divisive topic of our time, as well as the most misunderstood.My guest today is going to help us all better understand the complexity of this topic, both from the perspective of a subject matter expert, as well as someone who has suffered from childhood gender dysphoria herself. Stella O'Malley is an Irish psychotherapist who specializes in gender dysphoria, and holds a B.A in Counseling/Psychotherapy, a Masters in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and additional diplomas in Youth Studies, Psychometric Testing, and Gender Identity Counseling. She's also the author of four books on parenting and the mental health of children. She's a regular contributor to newspapers, broadcast television, podcasts, and a sought after speaker and writer on the topic of gender dysphoria. In 2018, she published her documentary, Trans Kids: It's Time to Talk. And to quote Suzi Fei of the Financial Times, “It's where compassion meets controversy”. I hope you enjoy Stella and her expertise as much as I did. She is a gift to our trans community.Watch Episode:True Thirty is a reader-supported publication.

Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior in which one partner repeatedly uses physical force or threats of violence against the other partner. It can take many forms, including physical, sexual, emotional, and economic abuse. Domestic violence affects everyone, no matter what age or size, and it is an important topic we should cover, however, it might be triggering for some people. If you're worried that someone you know may be experiencing domestic violence, it's important to talk to them about it. In today's episode, our guest Dr. Claudia B. Fenderson, EdD shares with us relevant information about the resources available to help victims get out of abusive relationships and discloses why professionals like pediatricians can play an important role in identifying and providing resources to children and families affected by domestic violence. Dr. Claudia B. Fenderson has served as the Director/Chair of the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program at Marist College until her retirement this past year. She has a BS in Physical Therapy from Columbia University; an MS in Physical Therapy from Long Island University and an EdD in Child and Youth Studies from Nova Southeastern University. Her career spans more than 45 years and the majority of her experience has been in the areas of education and neurologic rehabilitation, primarily in infants and preschoolers with developmental delays and disabilities. Key Highlights: [00:01 - 09:31] Open Segment How Dr. Claudia got interested in domestic violence Violence can be classified into four types: physical, sexual, psychological, and economic Domestic violence can involve any type of abuse, from physical to emotional to financial, and can happen to anyone [09:32 - 20:07] Have Conversations About Healthy Relationships with All of Your Patients There are warning signs that should be observed in order to identify domestic violence It is important for professionals to ask about domestic violence when they are concerned for a child's wellbeing How to identify a controlling relationship, and offer resources to teens who are in a difficult relationship [20:08 - 33:28] Provide Resources and Support to Victims During Covid was difficult to identify people who were experiencing domestic violence Health care professionals should be aware of risks and be prepared to help victims in difficult situations Domestic violence is a problem that affects both men and women, but it is especially an issue for women Healthcare providers should be aware of the signs and symptoms of domestic violence [33:29 - 41:45] Help Patients Feel Less Alone By asking questions, clinicians can help prevent harm to patients and children Offering resources and help to adult victims of domestic violence is essential Adults need to know that they are not alone and that they can come to talk to us if they need help [41:46 - 44:38] Final Takeaways All professionals who care for kids have an opportunity to ask about domestic violence and safety Domestic violence and intimate partner violence is all about control We often consider physical abuse, but we need to think about emotional abuse Domestic violence is common with estimates that one-third of men and women have been in a domestic violence situation and that 15% of children may have witnessed domestic violence Domestic violence is a public health concern Teens who have witnessed domestic violence may believe that violence is an acceptable way to deal with conflict Ask universally about domestic violence and intimate partner violence The covid pandemic increased the incidence of child abuse and neglect, and domestic violence Other risk factors for domestic violence may include immigrant status How do we help? When domestic violence is disclosed, reassure the victim that no one deserves to be abused Assess the safety Know the resources in your community Let the victim know they are not alone and that...

MentorChat's first guest of Season 2 is Dana Winters from the Fred Rogers Center! In this episode, we're talking with Dana about how the simplest interactions with young people can make a huge mentoring difference. Everyday Mentors - the "helpers" - who support kids can be anyone from teachers, to coaches, to crossing guards, and the work that they're already doing to make sure that young people feel seen and heard is worth recognizing! Listen in for some great and uplifting discussion about how - to quote the great Mr. Rogers - "the deep and simple is far more essential than the shallow and complex" when impacting the lives of youth!

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: Fully vaccinated U.S citizens wasted little time yesterday seizing their first chance in 17 months to venture into Canada, while lawmakers south of the border urged the White House to hurry up and follow Ottawa's lead. To be eligible, travellers must live in the U.S., be 14 days past their last vaccine dose and show proof of a negative molecular test for COVID-19 that's no more than 72 hours old. The Canada Border Services Agency also requires visitors to use the ArriveCAN app or online web portal to upload their vaccination details. GUEST: Thomas Tenkate, Professor at the School of Occupational & Public Health with Ryerson University - What's the economic impact of the border reopening to Americans vs the public health impact? GUEST: Mory DiMaurizio, Chief Operating Officer of City Cruises in Niagara Falls - All eyes are on September following the Ontario government's recent unveiling of its back-to-school plan. Brock University Professor of Child and Youth Studies Dawn Zinga and Associate Professor Danielle Sirianni Molnar want to make sure teachers' voices are being heard and understood as schools reopen. To that end, the duo has launched a survey of teachers as part of their study “Teachers' Perspectives on the Pandemic.” The research team, which also consists of master's student Melissa Blackburn and other research assistants, is looking for 250 elementary or secondary school teachers who are certified with the Ontario College of Teachers and have at least two years of teaching experience in Ontario. GUEST: Danielle Sirianni Molnar, Associate Professor of Child and Youth Studies at Brock University - Robert Schellenberg, who is facing the death penalty in China for drug trafficking, lost his appeal Tuesday and a second important verdict will be handed down by the country's courts later this week. The latter verdict will concern Michael Spavor, one of the two Canadian men who were arrested in apparent retaliation for Canada's detention of a Huawei executive. He is expected to learn his fate in Dandong, near the North Korean border. A judgment is expected Wednesday morning. The two verdicts, coming right before an expected federal election call in Canada, could make for a momentous week in Canada-China relations, which have sunk to their worst level since students were killed in Tiananmen Square in 1989. GUEST: Elliot Tepper, Emeritus Professor of Political Science with Carleton University - A U.N.appointed panel of experts said Monday that the Earth is getting so hot that temperatures in about a decade will probably blow past the most ambitious threshold set in the Paris accord. That increases the risk of extreme weather and long-term climate-related disasters. The Paris agreement called for limiting temperature increases to well below 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) — and ideally to no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) over pre-industrial levels. The report was “a code red for humanity. The alarm bells are deafening, and the evidence is irrefutable: Greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel burning and deforestation are choking our planet and putting billions of people at immediate risk.” — United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres GUEST: Kent Moore, Professor of Atmospheric Physics with the University of Toronto
Have you seen the memes pairing motherhood and alcohol? With phrases like:Some people need a special occasion to have wine. I just needed to have a kid. What wine pairs well with my kids driving me absolutely insane? Mom tip: When they start to whine, open the bottle of wine. Since FAS was first named in 1973 there have been ongoing efforts directed at prevention. While turning to alcohol to celebrate or cope is not new, over the last 10 years or so a new segment of the population is emerging: wine moms. If you search the hashtag #winemom or variations of it, on Instagram you will get over 84,000 hits. Should this be a concern? Our two guests today – Dr. Kelly Harding and Lisa Whittingham wondered about it, so did some research. Dr. Kelly Harding received her Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Rural and Northern Health from Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Dr. Harding is a Research Associate with the Canada Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder Research Network (CanFASD). Lisa Whittingham is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Child and Youth Studies. She completed both her undergraduate degree in Psychology and her M.A. in Applied Disability Studies from Brock University. A wine mom is someone who likes to take the edge off parenting. A new culture of humour has developed around it. Lisa, Kelly and I talk about what their research discovered, such as: The types of #winemom posts, what they portray and the difference between pictures portrayed and descriptions.Who in general the wine mom culture is, why they organized and what that means for those not part of it. Beyond humour and connection, what are the consequences and darker side of wine mom culture? Kelly and Lisa provide their thoughts on the “supermom” culture, the normalization and commodification of alcohol and how the pandemic has led to an increase in the #winemom culture and rise in alcohol consumption. We know women of childbearing age are drinking. They also give tips on how to respond when you see a friend or family member posting a #winemom meme. All is not bleak. In the same hashtag, we see people celebrating sobriety. Former wine moms are vocal about the culture, which has seen the rise of social influencers who refer to themselves as “winepreneurs” and wine experts. There are no easy answers. But as Lisa and Kelly point out, bringing this to the light means it can be addressed. One thing we do know though, no matter if someone is a #winemom or drinking for another reason, women need information and support, not judgement.

Originally from Brownsville, Brooklyn, Lisa B. has dedicated her life and career to serving court-involved youth in multiple capacities. Working with organizations such as The Center for Court Innovation at the Brownsville Community Justice Center as the Youth & Community Programs Coordinator further revealed the many gaps and loopholes that exist in the criminal legal system which contribute to the continued mistreatment of black and brown youth. Those gaps pushed Lisa to further her education. She went on to receive her Masters in Youth Studies & Development at CUNY Graduate Center - School of Professional Studies. During that time, she became an expert researcher conducting multiple Youth Participatory Action Research projects in conjunction with CUNY and youth from all over the city. Each project focused on how youth-serving systems and agencies interact and impact youth. Now, as a Student Attorney at CUNY School of Law's Defenders Clinic -she works with the Second Look project. The Second Look project assists rehabilitated individuals who have been incarcerated for 20 plus years obtain their freedom through clemency. Lisa is currently working with a 40-year-old black man from Rochester NY who was arrested at the age of 17 for murder charges. During her time in law school, she has worked with criminal reform agencies such as Common Justice and Youth Represent. Her hopes are not only to continue to serve and advocate for youth, but be an example of the opportunities and possibilities which they too can obtain. #BlackExcellence Rodney Chandlers Story- https://vimeo.com/492676958 Visit Cuomoletthemgo.com to sign a petition to support Rodney Chandler's release. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mastermine-mrg/message

In this episode, Alev and Anuja and guests reveal how fitness culture is a significant part of a modern individual's everyday activities.

This week I chatted with Elsie Whittington about consent education. We've both been working on this a lot recently so it was a mutual chat rather than an interview. We chatted about how consent should be embedded rather than being a discrete subject. The problems with binary and legalistic models of consent. How continuums and spectrums can open up the topic and allow for people to understand how it might work in real life scenarios. The importance of embodiment and agency and how structures (schools, unis, workplaces) can make consent harder. Elsie is a lecturer and youth worker at the Manchester Centre for Youth Studies, Manchester Metropolitan University. She is one of the leading voices in consent education as part of sexuality and relationship education for young people. Her excellent paper Rethinking consent with continuums: sex, ethics and young people, is published in the journal Sex Education by Routledge. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14681811.2020.1840343 My book, Can We Talk About Consent? A book about freedom, choices, and agreement. Written for young adults, it aims to go beyond basic, binary and legalistic notions of consent and expands the definition to talk about agency, power, choices, social scripts, collective agency, solidarity, privilege and empowerment. Lots of practical advice about how to put consent into practice using everyday examples. https://www.bishuk.com/can-we-talk-about-consent/ To hear the full show, sign up to patreon.com/culturesexrelationships from just $1 a month.

Migrants and refugees: Laurie Taylor explores the historical and contemporary realities of the marooned, unhomed and displaced peoples of the world. Today's refugee 'crisis' has its origins in the political–and imaginative–history of the last century. Exiles from other places have often caused trouble for ideas about sovereignty, law and nationhood. Lyndsey Stonebridge, Professor of Humanities and Human Rights at the University of Birmingham, charts the changing meaning of exile. Also, how do the lives of migrants in London illuminate our complex, urban multiculture? Les Back, Professor of Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London, and Shamser Sinha, Senior Lecturer in Sociology and Youth Studies at the University of Suffolk, talk about a unique, collaborative study which involved 30 young migrants. Producer: Jayne Egerton
In this episode I spoke to Rachel Thomson who is Professor of Childhood and Youth Studies at the University of Sussex.

We talk about how this project fits with older forms of archiving and existing approaches to childhood studies and the significance of how children and watched and what happens when this becomes digitized.
Nearly 660,000 bags of mail were sent to Canada from soldiers in France and Belgium during the First World War. In this episode, Dr. Kristine Alexander sits down with Kyle Pritchard to discuss her research on the topic of families, children, and letter-writing during the First World War. Kristine is an associate professor in history, a Canadian Research Chair, and Director of the Institute for Child and Youth Studies at the University of Lethbridge. Her book Guiding Modern Girlspublished in 2017, examines the connections which linked girlhood with colonialism and empire in the post-war and inter-war periods. In her new research, Kristine contends that letter-writing is a valuable entry point into the study of family under wartime conditions and finds that a more critical approach to these letters reveal soldiers often defied the emotional tropes historians have assigned to them.

Kristen Cheney (International Institute of Social Studies, The Hague) Presentation slides: bit.ly/orphanindustrialcomplex Abstract: In her new book, Crying for Our Elders: African Orphanhood in the Age of HIV and AIDS, Cheney argues that the misidentification of “orphans” as a category for development and humanitarian intervention has subsequently been misappropriated by many Western individuals and charitable organizations, resulting in an ‘orphan industrial complex’ that problematically commoditizes children as targets for charitable intervention—particularly in the global south. The discourse and practice of “orphan rescue” drives the “production” of orphans as objects for particular kinds of intervention that are counter to established international standards of child protection. In this presentation, Cheney will explain the concept of the orphan industrial complex: how it works and what its consequences are for children, families, and child protection systems. Speaker biography: Kristen E. Cheney is Associate Professor of Children and Youth Studies for the International Institute of Social Studies, a graduate development studies institute in The Hague, Netherlands. Dr. Cheney’s research deals with children’s survival strategies amidst difficult circumstances and the politics of humanitarian intervention for such children, mainly in Eastern and Southern Africa. Her first book, Pillars of the Nation: Child Citizens and Ugandan National Development (2007), looks broadly at the social intersections of childhood and nationhood in international development, while her new book, Crying for Our Elders: African Orphanhood in the Age of HIV/AIDS (2017, University of Chicago Press) draws on youth participatory ethnographic research with orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) to examine issues of social exclusion, policy, and protection for children affected by HIV/AIDS.

Canada's spanking laws may be heading for an overhaul as part of the government's promise to adopt all of the recommendations stemming from the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. One of the 94 "calls to action" after the six-year inquiry into widespread abuse at residential schools for indigenous children is to repeal section 43 of the Criminal Code. The Canadian Law, under section 43 of the Criminal Code, offers Canadian parents and caregivers a defence to use reasonable force to discipline a child. However, as section 43 recognizes, this is controversial and not in fact, of the rights and best interest of the children in our country. The United Nations committee on the rights of the child addressed Canada on September 19, 2012 during their ten-year goal review; “What we are telling you is, to raise the bar and rise to the challenge, because Canada is one of the top five economies in the world.” Multiple researchers and a longitude of studies support that physical discipline has short and long term negative outcomes, such as developmentally, mental and physical health issues. According to ACE, the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study, physical abuse is the number one reason for childhood trauma. The risk of parents escalating and using unreasonable force, is four times more likely if they are attempting to use spanking in the form of discipline. The speaker will elaborate on those findings and offer positive strategies in child rearing without using physical discipline. Speaker: Petra DeBow Petra DeBow has been supporting and educating parents in various roles over the past 15 years. She has been in the position of the Triple P Coordinator / Parent Educator at Family Centre for the past 3 years, where she supports parents, facilitates parenting groups and coordinates and supports local Triple P practitioners.

Family Confidential: Secrets of Successful Parenting with Annie Fox, M.Ed.
What's wrong with three- and four-year-old girls prancing around in sparkly dresses and tiaras and dreaming the night away hugging a Disney princess doll in a real princess canopy bed? The problem, according to Rebecca Hains, PhD (author of "The Princess Problem: Guiding Our Girls Through the Princess-Obsessed Years"), is the way the "princess culture" suggests to girls that "most of their value comes from their appearance, while also feeding them stereotypes about race, gender, and beauty that they're really not equipped to handle at such a young age." Annie talks with Rebecca about how to raise an empowered girl in a princess world. About Rebecca Hains (@RCHains) Dr. Rebecca Hains is a children's media culture expert.

Identity theft, bogus investment opportunities, stolen credit card information: in this increasingly technological world, becoming a victim of a fraud is a very real concern. The Competition Bureau of Canada has named March as being Fraud Prevention Month. Joining us on this topic are Angela Book from the Department of Psychology, Voula Marinos from the Department of Child and Youth Studies, and Teju Herath from the Goodman School of Business, with remarks from Detective Sergeant Paul Spiridi, head of the Niagara Regional Police Service’s Central Fraud Unit.
Victims of bullying - ranging from the playground to the workplace - were once advised to “suck it up” or learn how to “fight back.” Zopito Marini, professor in Child and Youth Studies and Lisa Barrow, assistant professor in the Goodman School of Business who specializes in workplace bullying, discuss how our awareness and understanding of bullying has changed, along with how to deal with it. The podcast is being aired in the same month as a public forum is scheduled to be held at Brock.
