This is a great writeup! So helpful to have guidance on how to avoid being overwhelmed--it's hard to accept that more information isn't always better, even when it makes sense.
Thank you so much for this important summary of the research study. I feel like the answer to the findings in this study is for parents to stop scrolling and just focus on a few sites like yours. If they need a quick answer they can look to your Instgam -@parentingtranslator. If they need a more Indepth answer they can come to your newsletter. If they want an Indepth answer, but they don't have time to read, they can listen to the Parenting Translator Podcast on Apple or Spotify. Last, if they want to print out information to share with their spouse, parent, or caregiver, they can print out the amazing free resources from your website www.parentingtranslator.org. Thank you for creating so many options for us as parents!
Thank you so much for saying that. I so appreciate it. I have worked hard to provide good content for parents in multiple mediums that fit their needs. If you have any suggestions on other things to do, just let me know.
This is bound to resonate with so many parents out there! I think limiting the amount of sources parents look at is sure to help--hopefully Parenting Translator is one they use!
Thank you for this explanation of this study and the potential significance of its findings. This same notion of too much information, often overwhelming or conflicting information, whether it is reliable or not, is a huge problem in pediatric and neonatal medical practice. Parents can be easily confused with unreliable information from less than reputable or unprofessional sites and that clouds their judgement. Talking with a trusted professional and discussing information obtained from reliable sites (like the CDC or AAP) is crucial to parents’ understanding of medical care for their child - whether you are discussing vaccines or therapy.

This article is exhibit A in the writer’s own thesis. It is not lost on me that I am the first to leave a comment. More TLDR for busy parents. Sorry, nice try.
I always include the Translation section as a TLDR. It is such a balance trying to provide accurate and comprehensive information without being too long. On my Instagram, I typically keep things short and sweet, but the newsletter gives me a chance to explain complexities of the study and limitations. If you are just interested in the takeaway message, I would suggest just focusing on my Instagram @parentingtranslator
Wow, this is wonderful and resonates so much.
I am so glad you found it helpful. Please share it with your networks.

Sometimes I cannot help myself to keep looking for more and more information, but it is not always helpful and can leave you being more stressed!
