Summary Most parents have probably had the feeling that their little baby seemed to grow up in no time. These days, more than ever, it seems our kids are growing up way too fast. In this feature report, we hear from kids, parents, Author Dr. David Elkind and Endocrinologist Dr. Jack Holland about the hyper-maturity of our kids and what parents can do about it. Dad Kim Saltarski gives us a humorous Reality Check on the stresses he feels when his little daughter Maya starts school. Seems simple, right? Your child does something well, and you tell them. According to child Psychologist Dr. Otto Weininger how you praise your child - what you say, when and how often - can affect your child's sense of confidence and self esteem. In this how-to, Craig and Felicity Osborne and their three children tell us how praise is dealt out in their family. Bryonie and Sandy were in a loving, supportive relationship and knew they wanted to have a child one day. When these two women became parents to little Merlyn, they began a journey towards parenthood - and opened up definitions of what comprises a family. This family shares their unconventional life with us in a fascinating video diary.
