Teen boy laying down

Most parents of teens have dealt with the issue of lying at some point. Telling lies or leaving out the truth is a common teen behavior. Kids at this age have a lot more going on in their lives—sometimes good and sometimes bad—that they may want to keep to themselves. Not all kids with ADHD have issues with frequent lying. In fact, some are compulsively honest, which can create a different kind of problem.

As many as 1 in 4 healthy children and adolescents have fainted at some point. Has your child? Although the experience can be frightening, it's usually not caused by anything serious.

A study by the university found that teenager girls lie down or sit for up to 19 hours a day, including long bouts of inactivity during school time. The Irish Heart Foundation has now granted funding for the group to examine the potential effects of sitting and light physical activities have on our heart health.
