"They are looking," explained Despina Stavrinos, assistant professor at the University of Alabama Birmingham's Injury Control Center and the study's lead author. "But they are failing to see. Just like distracted drivers, they are going through the motions, but they are not actually processing the risk."

To better understand the potential dangers of street crossing, researchers from the University of Alabama at Birmingham looked at 78 children, 39 of whom had ADHD-C — a subtype that includes both inattention as well as hyperactivity and impulsivity issues — and 39 of whom did not. The children were between 7 and 10, the age at which The American Academy of Pediatrics states it may be okay for children to be unsupervised pedestrians.

Eggs aren't the cholesterol fiends they were once cracked up to be. In fact, they can be good sources of heart-healthy protein, vitamins, and minerals.

The pop singer is meeting with Obama administration staffers Tuesday to discuss her work on bullying prevention. The White House held an anti-bullying conference earlier this year, and the administration estimates that bullying affects 13 million students, or about a third of those attending school.

My daughter seems quite depressed. She takes it out in ways like being lazy, not wanting to do anything… sits in her room… is irritable a lot of the time. I've taken her Facebook away. Now I've got parental controls on her texting. That's ALL she was doing before. I think she's going through withdrawal now. Should I be concerned?

Dear Susan,

I have battles every morning with my strong-willed eight-year-old twins. I have to deal with one argument after another, fighting to get them dressed and fed with teeth brushed so we can get out the door on time. When we finally leave the house, we're all in a terrible mood. Is there anything I can do to make it easier?

Signed,

A children's book that will be released next week is stirring up controversy among parents. It's called "Vegan is Love," and according to the publisher, is a young readers' introduction "to veganism as a lifestyle of compassion and action." The details, however, including images of animals behind bars in crowded cages and graphic passages about animal testing are being called unsuitable for children –- the book is intended for kids as young as 6-years-old.

The pro-vegan message of the book isn't in dispute. While there is debate about whether an animal-product-free diet from birth is appropriate, nutritionists (and activists including Alicia Silverstone) agree that a vegan regimen can be healthy for little kids as long as their meals include enough supplemental nutrients and proteins. That said, the tone and wording in "Vegan Is Love" has experts concerned.

Child psychologist Jennifer Hart Steen told Matt Lauer on the "Today" show this morning that, "there’s so much fear presented in the book and if you would just give it to a child as a children's book they don't understand it. So now they're just going to be afraid."

Katie Hamilton attended the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's (LACMA) California Modernism Exhibit Saturday with her husband, three-year-old daughter and 21-month-old daughter. At one point during her visit, she knew it was time to feed her daughter, so Hamilton sat on a bench inside the Resnick Pavilion and nursed her baby to sleep.

Moments later, she was approached by a staff member who demanded she cover herself because two fellow patrons has complained about her breastfeeding.

Hamilton then explained to the employee that it was her right to breastfeed according to California Civil Code 43.3, which states:

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a mother may breastfeed her child in any location, public or private, except the private home or residence of another, where the mother and the child are otherwise authorized to be present.
