New Book Explains Science Behind Child Behavior

Published

on

Dr. Solomon Laktineh shares science-backed tools to help parents understand and guide child behavior.

New York City, New York, United States, 1st Apr 2026 – Dr. Solomon Laktineh is excited to announce that his new book, Raising Emotionally Intelligent Children: The Brain Behind the Behavior and How Parents Can Help, is now available on Amazon. This Parenting & Relationships guide gives parents clear answers to one big question: Why do children behave the way they do?

Parenting can feel hard and confusing. Many parents deal with tantrums, defiance, anxiety, screen battles, or daily power struggles. Dr. Laktineh explains that most behavior problems are not character problems. They are brain and nervous system responses. When parents understand what is happening inside the child’s brain, they can respond in ways that truly help.

Why This Parenting & Relationships Book Matters

This Parenting & Relationships book is based on science, but it is written in simple and clear language. Dr. Laktineh shares what he has learned from more than 40 years of caring for children and supporting families. He explains how the brain develops and how stress, fear, and connection shape behavior.

In the book, readers learn:

  • Why children melt down, shut down, or “act out”
  • How to set strong boundaries without shame or fear
  • How to reduce conflict and improve cooperation
  • Ways to help toddlers, children, and teens build emotional control
  • When behavior may be linked to ADHD, anxiety, autism traits, depression, or trauma
  • What parents should know about school supports, therapy, and medication

Dr. Laktineh shows that yelling and harsh discipline may stop behavior for a short time, but they do not build emotional strength. Calm guidance and connection help children grow into strong and confident adults.

Understanding the Brain Behind the Behavior

In Raising Emotionally Intelligent Children, Dr. Laktineh explains how parts of the brain like the amygdala and prefrontal cortex work together. When a child feels unsafe or overwhelmed, the emotional part of the brain takes over. This can lead to anger, tears, or complete shutdown.

Many parents think their child is being difficult on purpose. This book helps parents see behavior in a new way. When adults respond with calm support instead of fear or frustration, the child’s nervous system settles. Over time, this builds resilience and emotional intelligence.

Dr. Laktineh makes complex science easy to understand. He uses real-life examples from his years as a pediatrician and neonatologist. His message is simple: when parents change how they respond, children change how they grow.

A Fresh Voice in Parenting & Relationships

This Parenting & Relationships guide was inspired not only by Dr. Laktineh’s medical career, but also by his own childhood. He was raised in a strict home where discipline often meant fear and shame. At that time, it was seen as love. Later in life, through medicine and neuroscience, he learned that fear may control behavior, but it does not build emotional health.

He wrote this book because he saw many children labeled as “defiant,” “difficult,” or “anxious.” In his practice, he realized that many of these children were reacting to stress, environment, and unmet emotional needs. He also saw parents who loved their children deeply but did not have the right tools.

Dr. Laktineh believes that when parents understand brain development, guilt is replaced with clarity. Knowledge leads to compassion. And compassion builds stronger families.

About the Author

Dr. Solomon Laktineh, MD, MPH, is a board-certified pediatrician with over four decades of medical experience. He earned his medical degree in Damascus, Syria. He completed his pediatric residency at the University of Illinois in Chicago and received fellowship training in Neonatology at UCLA in Westwood.

Throughout his career, Dr. Laktineh has cared for newborns, children, and families during some of their most stressful moments. His work focuses on helping parents understand the developing brain so they can respond with confidence instead of fear. His medical knowledge, paired with practical parenting advice, makes this book both trustworthy and easy to use.

Now Available on Amazon

Raising Emotionally Intelligent Children: The Brain Behind the Behavior and How Parents Can Help is now available on Amazon in both ebook and paperback formats. This important Parenting & Relationships resource offers parents a calm, science-based path toward raising emotionally strong children.

SproutGigs Upgrades API, Adding New Controls for Agents and Automated Workflows

Published

on

Middletown, Delaware, United States, 1st Apr 2026 – SproutGigs has released an updated version of its API, expanding the range of endpoints available to developers and introducing new configuration options for job and campaign management. The release reflects the platform’s growing use as infrastructure for both automated workflows and human-in-the-loop AI pipelines.

Platform Background

SproutGigs operates as a micro-task marketplace, connecting businesses and developers with a global workforce of hundreds of thousands of workers available to complete digital tasks. Clients post jobs through the platform, set parameters around task volume and pacing, and receive completed work from the worker pool. The API exposes this infrastructure programmatically, allowing the entire process — from job creation to task review and rating — to be managed without manual intervention through the platform interface.

What’s New in This Release

The updated API introduces two new endpoints: Set Daily Tasks Limit, which allows developers to cap how many tasks are completed per day on a given job, and Set Distribution, which provides control over how work is allocated across the worker network. Both additions give development teams finer operational control, particularly useful when managing campaigns that need to scale gradually or maintain a consistent cadence over time.

Existing functionality has also been extended and refined. The API now covers the full job lifecycle — posting, pausing, resuming, restarting, stopping, and featuring jobs — as well as predicted position estimates and speed controls for active campaigns. Task rating is available both individually and in bulk, with separate endpoints for retrieving rated and unrated tasks, making it straightforward to build review queues into an automated pipeline.

Human Review of LLM Outputs

One area where the API is seeing increased adoption is in workflows where AI-generated content or decisions require human validation before being acted upon. By routing tasks through SproutGigs, developers can submit LLM outputs for review by human workers drawn from the platform’s global pool of hundreds of thousands of contributors. This human-in-the-loop model is particularly relevant for content moderation, data labeling, quality assurance, and judgment-based tasks where model outputs benefit from a layer of human verification. The platform’s rating and webhook systems allow results to be fed back into the wider pipeline in a structured way, with real-time notifications fired on job status changes and task submissions.

The REST-based API and standard authentication model mean it can be integrated into most development environments without significant overhead, and it is compatible with agent frameworks and orchestration tools built on models including those from Anthropic and OpenAI.

Worker Lists and Targeting

The API includes a Lists module, which allows developers to build and manage curated sets of workers. Workers can be added, blocked, or unblocked from a list, giving clients the ability to direct jobs toward specific segments of the workforce or exclude workers who do not meet quality thresholds for a particular campaign. This functionality is useful for teams that have identified reliable contributors through prior jobs and want to prioritise them for future work.

Digital Growth Campaigns

Beyond verification and AI workflow use cases, the Sproutgigs API continues to support programmatic campaign management for digital platforms. Developers can post and manage jobs targeting YouTube, TikTok, and websites — covering tasks such as driving video views, channel subscribers, engagement, and web traffic through the platform’s worker network. For development teams building tools in the creator economy or digital marketing space, this provides a ready-made fulfillment layer accessible entirely via API.

Endpoint Summary

The full API covers five main areas: Gigs (browsing available tasks, categories, public questions, and reviews), Jobs (full lifecycle management, task rating, distribution and limit controls), Lists (worker list management), Profiles (worker profile access), and Users (account balance retrieval). Webhook support covers two event types — job status changes and task submissions — enabling event-driven architectures.

Documentation for the updated API is available at sproutgigs.com.

Nextrition Launches Cold Pressed Dog Food Samples So Picky Eaters Can Try Before Owners Commit

Published

on

New low-cost trial packs let dog owners test premium cold pressed nutrition without the risk of a full-size bag.

Nextrition, a specialist in cold pressed dog food, has launched a new trial program designed to solve one of the most common frustrations among dog owners: spending money on premium food only for their picky dog to refuse it.

The new trial packs offer a low-cost way for owners to trial Nextrition’s cold pressed dog food recipes before committing to a full-size bag: a move the brand says is aimed at owners of fussy, picky dogs who have already cycled through multiple brands.

We know the reality for a lot of dog owners is a pantry full of half-finished bags their dog won’t touch” said Jim Reimann, CEO, Nextrition “We wanted to remove that barrier. Our trial packs let owners put our food to the test at a fraction of the cost, so the dog gets the final say before anyone commits.

 

What is cold pressed dog food?

Cold pressed dog food is pressed together at significantly lower temperatures than traditional kibble, which is produced through high-heat extrusion. This gentler process helps retain more of the natural flavors, aromas, and nutrients that are typically lost during conventional manufacturing.

For owners searching for the best dog food for picky eaters, that distinction matters. Dogs that consistently reject standard kibble often respond differently to cold pressed food because it smells and tastes closer to whole, minimally processed ingredients — something fussy eaters tend to notice immediately.

Nextrition says early feedback from customers supports this, with owners reporting that dogs who had previously turned down multiple brands ate the cold pressed trial packs without hesitation.

 

A new generation of gut-healthy, easy-digestion dog food

Cold pressing preserves the natural structure of ingredients that high-heat extrusion breaks down. Cold pressed food breaks down more quickly in the gut compared to traditional kibble, putting less strain on digestion. For dogs with digestive issues, it means firmer stools, less gas, and a more consistent appetite.

That’s what makes Nextritions cold pressed dog food is a strong choice for owners looking for the best dog food for a sensitive gut: less strain on digestion means less discomfort after meals. Nextrition’s formulas are designed as gut-healthy dog food from the ground up, using ingredients selected specifically for digestibility and gentle processing. The trial packs are for owners searching for the best dog food for a sensitive gut, but don’t want to commit to a large bag of food at first.

 

A broader approach to quality nutrition

Cold pressed is a highly-praised alternative to air dried, freeze dried, and fresh dog food, with similar nutritional values, but often coming in at a much lower price per meal. It’s also a well-known shelf stable dog food, making cold-pressed practical for everyday feeding, travel, and storage without the nutritional trade-offs owners typically associate with kibble.

The trial program covers Nextrition’s core cold pressed line up, giving owners the ability to test different recipes and find the right fit for their dog’s preferences.

 

About Nextrition

Nextrition is America’s premier cold pressed dog food brand, specializing in healthy, dry dog food formulated for dogs with sensitive stomachs and owners who want to see a visible difference in their dog’s coat and overall condition.

Nextrition’s cold pressed dog food trial packs are available now through their website.

Sewer Solutions NW Expands Trenchless Sewer and Drain Services Across Snohomish County

Published

on

Second-generation plumbing company strengthens service coverage for residential and commercial properties throughout Mukilteo, Everett, Lynnwood, and surrounding communities.

Mukilteo, WA, United States, 1st Apr 2026 – Sewer Solutions NW, a licensed and insured plumbing company serving the greater Puget Sound region for over 30 years, has announced expanded sewer repair and drain cleaning operations across Snohomish County. The company, led by owner Stephen Poff, continues to invest in advanced trenchless technology and specialized equipment to address the growing demand for non-invasive sewer line solutions in aging residential communities throughout western Washington.

The expansion comes as municipalities across Snohomish County report increased strain on underground sewer infrastructure originally installed during the post-war housing boom of the 1950s through 1970s. Homes built during that era commonly feature cast iron, clay tile, or Orangeburg sewer laterals — materials that are now well past their expected service life. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, deteriorating sewer infrastructure remains one of the leading contributors to sanitary sewer overflows in communities nationwide, with older suburban developments bearing a disproportionate share of failures.

For property owners in the region, these infrastructure challenges translate to recurring drain clogs, sewer line backups, root intrusion, and pipe corrosion — problems that often escalate when left unaddressed. The combination of Snohomish County’s glacial till soils, high seasonal rainfall, and mature tree canopies creates conditions that accelerate underground pipe deterioration at a rate that catches many homeowners off guard.

Sewer Solutions NW in Mukilteo, WA operates from its Snohomish County headquarters and dispatches trained, in-house technicians throughout the service area. The company does not subcontract its work — all diagnostics, cleaning, and repair services are performed by its own licensed plumbing professionals using company-owned equipment. That operational model has allowed Sewer Solutions NW to maintain consistent service quality across a broad geographic footprint while keeping response times competitive for both scheduled maintenance and urgent service calls.

The company’s service portfolio reflects a specialization in underground pipe systems rather than general residential plumbing. Sewer Solutions NW provides sewer camera inspections using waterproof HD video equipment, hydro jetting for commercial and residential drain cleaning, trenchless pipe lining using cured-in-place (CIPP) technology, pipe bursting for full sewer line replacement, leak locating, and traditional excavation when site conditions require it. Each service engagement begins with a camera-first diagnostic approach — a protocol the company credits with reducing unnecessary repairs and improving first-visit resolution rates. Property owners seeking a qualified plumber for sewer-related issues can request a free consultation and camera inspection to determine the scope and nature of the problem before any work begins.

Stephen Poff, owner of Sewer Solutions NW, spoke to the importance of proactive infrastructure maintenance in the communities the company serves.

“Most of the sewer lines we inspect in Snohomish County are 40 to 70 years old, and a lot of homeowners have no idea what condition they’re in until something backs up,” Poff said. “Our goal has always been to help people get ahead of those problems. A camera inspection takes less than an hour and gives you a complete picture of what’s happening underground. That information puts the homeowner in control — they can plan repairs on their timeline instead of reacting to an emergency.”

Poff noted that trenchless repair methods have fundamentally changed the cost and disruption profile of sewer work for homeowners, particularly in established neighborhoods where mature landscaping, narrow lot lines, and concrete driveways make traditional excavation impractical.

Sewer Solutions NW currently provides service to residential and commercial properties across a coverage area that includes Mukilteo, Everett, Lynnwood, Edmonds, Bothell, Mountlake Terrace, Snohomish, Clinton, and Langley, as well as communities throughout King and Pierce Counties including Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Renton, and Tacoma. The company’s Snohomish County operations serve both incorporated municipalities and unincorporated county areas, with technicians familiar with local permitting requirements, utility district standards, and code enforcement practices specific to each jurisdiction. Homeowners interested in learning more about available drain cleaning services can visit the company website for detailed information on each method and what to expect during a service appointment.

Property owners in Mukilteo, WA, and surrounding Snohomish County communities can contact Sewer Solutions NW to schedule a free consultation or request emergency service by calling (253) 271-6843 or visiting the company’s website. The company offers service seven days a week and maintains availability for urgent sewer and drain emergencies.

ABOUT SEWER SOLUTIONS NW

Sewer Solutions NW is a second-generation, family-owned plumbing company headquartered in Mukilteo, Washington.
