You are listening to episode 41, 15 ways we can be more like kids.

Hey everyone, welcome to the Pete's Doc Talk Podcast. I'm your host Dr Mona, where each week I hope to educate and inspire you in your journey through parenthood. With information on your most common concerns as a parent and interviews with fellow parents and experts in the field,

my hope is you leave each week feeling more educated, confident, and empowered in the decisions you make for your child.

Welcome back to the Peed's Doc Talk Podcast. I have not recorded a solo episode in

quite some time and I'm so excited to share this one today. I feel like we need a lot more positivity in

2020. It has been a pretty rough year. We are deep into this pandemic.

2020 is almost over and we need some light in our lives and whenever I think of

positivity and light and positive energy I think about children. I love being a pediatrician. People often ask, well why did you go into

pediatrics? And I tell them I love taking care of these kids. They're smart,

they're resilient, and as a pediatrician I get to be involved in the health and wellness of a child.

Not only do I get to teach parents how to take care of their children,

I get to teach the children how to take care of themselves as they become

older and I love that about my job. So in this episode I am talking about 15

characteristics that I love most about children and how I wish that we can

incorporate some of these characteristics into our lives more and more. I get it we

have responsibilities. Sometimes it's hard to do these things because we have to pay the bills we have to work

We have to set some rules obviously

But if you can just remember these 15 characteristics as we approach the end of the year and

approach 2021 I think we can just learn a lot from children even on the hardest

days I want you to think about these things and how these characteristics can make

us just happier adults.

So let's get started with the 15 ways we can be more like children.
