New research by Dr. Niyantri Ravindran shows that how parents and toddlers play together shapes kids' future social skills. Balanced interactions—where children learn to respond to others and take initiative—prepare them for social situations with peers. buff.ly/4fcb3jx

Recent research by @AssafOshri & Larry Sweet showed stress reactivity links child maltreatment (CM) to alcohol use in young adults. Higher distress tolerance (DT) can reduce this risk. DT-focused interventions might help lower alcohol use. More info: shorturl.at/gA7N8
