Behind Their Behavior

Every kid is unique with their own distinct personality and behavior. But at what point should a child's behavior become a cause for concern? From anxiety and tantrums to challenges at school and issues with sleep, pediatricians frequently encounter a wide range of behavioral concerns.

This episode was recorded at the 2025 Pediatric Academic Societies Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii. In this episode of Charting Pediatrics, we are joined by Stephanie Weber, PsyD, a licensed clinical psychologist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital who specializes in working with children with behavioral concerns. Dr. Weber is the Associate Director of the Cincinnatti Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND) Program and an Associate Professor at the University of Cincinnatti.

Some highlights from this episode include:

• Utilizing the right language to get a full picture of a patient's behavioral concerns
• Deciphering between "regular" and "irregular"
• Opportunities for modeling
• How pediatricians can work with families whose strategies they don't agree with
