Imagine rolling into Brentwood or Metrotown station with walls like these for the last 1500 meters?

Never underestimate the goings ons within a 3 year olds mind.
Completing the psychoeducational assessment, M blew through age appropriate questions and proceeded to successfully respond to questions designed for children 2-3 years older.
Proud dad.

Healthcare folks, can anyone point me towards literature/QI articles on the implementation of Person-centered rounds on pediatric mental health inpatient units?
Myself and our librarian are coming up blank.

New week, more peer support.
I'm excited to support expansion of our peer support services to two additional inpatient, child and youth mental health units this week.

Cue parents across North America posting their childs name, school, year, and age online.
Track memories and milestones, but be mindful of what you post online.

First. Fare evasion is wrong.
Curious, promoting the addition of 8 new officers and 100,000 checks, @TransLink can you help us better understand the matter?

Y/Y average for fines
% of fines actually paid?

Assuming enforcement focuses on busses because fare gates exist on SkyTrain.
Based on @TransLink 2023 report, busses have roughly 752,000 Average Daily Boardings(weekdays).
Not accounting for transfers/monthly pass holders, assuming everyone paid. That's $2.4M daily.

Fellow parent recently posted a video, "20-months and she's already better at using a phone then my mother."
With enough exposure, Toddlers can do a lot of things that may surprise you.
Parenting is hard and screens are easy distractions, but perhaps Candy Crush can wait?

Beyond the fact that the thought of driving from Vancouver to Portland with two toddlers terrifies me.
This is a beautiful reason to fly to Portland.

Parent corners of social seem to discuss it constantly, but is it a thing?
Parents, did you mourn any of the "last time" moments in your child's early years? (or beyond)

A service that reviews and makes it easy to purge all of a parents online content referencing or depicting their kids.
Or I just wipe all my social accounts when my kids become tweens. (But that's not very practical.)

When an ASD assessment specialist asks you to take your child out of daycare for 15 minutes to join a virtual call so they can ask a few questions.
Are you trying to dysregulate her?

Today I learned Microsoft have an independent PIA for the use of Teams within Canadian healthcare.
Who knew 🤷
Zoom still seems to offer a better experience for guests (patients/families) to log into calls.

ASD specialists asking about family mental health history like ASD was properly diagnosed 20+ years ago.

Is it weird that phone manufacturers invest in premium materials to reduce finger prints and make devices more resistant to falls and water, but we still stuck em in cases anyway?

As subscription rates/fees continue to rise across meal delivery, video streaming, and ride hailing services.
In what year do consumers revert back to watching cable, getting our own damn food, and using taxis?

Remember when @TransLink wrote about a family going car free?

Below are accessibility alerts, mostly elevators out of service. Stroller? Don't take transit.
So often we talk of service expansion. More focus should be on service reliability/access.
