Holiday Break Episode 1: How to avoid "jargon-oblivion"
In this first mini holiday break episode, I share a brand-new article from Pediatrics. It is entitled “Children’s Understanding of Commonly Used Medical Terminology,” and it examines “jargon-oblivion” or the problem that some professionals who work with kids do not recognize that those kids do not understand all of the words or phrases that are being used in their care. A link to the article is talkingaboutkids.com. Full-length Talking About Kids episodes will return in 2025.
