Your Child Won't Sit Still | Here's Why
Does your child constantly fidget, struggle to pay attention, or seem unable to sit still? The answer may not be what you've been told. In this episode of the Prime Family Podcast, Dr. Skip Wyss and Dr. Julie explore the real reasons many children struggle with focus and attention. Rather than immediately jumping to labels or diagnoses, they discuss how brain development, nervous system function, sleep, nutrition, movement, routines, and modern distractions all play a role in a child's ability to learn, regulate emotions, and stay engaged. From screen time and patience to stress, school, and healthy daily rhythms, this conversation offers practical insights that every parent can use to better understand and support their child's development. If your child is having trouble focusing at school, sitting still, or managing big emotions, this episode will help you understand what may really be happening and what you can do to help.
