Has Your Child Ever Experienced Night Terror?
My daughter is 23 and as far as I know, she never experienced night terror.  Like most children, she had her share of bad dreams now and then, but nothing that caused us concern.  A Facebook friend, Anna brought night terror to my attention because she is asking if others have experienced this and what can be done about it.  It isn't talked about much, can we help her?

Are The Duluth And Superior YMCA’s Providing Child Care Service So You Can Vote November 8?
You may have heard that the YMCA of the USA recently announced an effort to get parents out to vote on November 8th.  Honestly, voting has been on the decline for the last few years and with the controversy of this election, additional incentive to get people to the polls is probably needed.  However, not all locations are offering the service.  I called our local YMCA's to see if they were partic

Unless you work with children in our area you are probably unaware of how many of them attend school hungry and go home to empty tables.  Some days their only meal is lunch provided at school.  There is even a weekend backpack program through Second Harvest Northern Lakes Food Bank that ensures that on Friday the kids go home with food until Monday.  But, what do they do in the summer?
