In this week's Betsy and Sal, Sally Higginson talks about how she resolved to pack lighter, and how that resolution fell apart while getting ready for a trip to the Canadian Rockies.
It’s early February, and we all know what that means: it’s time to abandon our New Year’s Resolutions. For the few among us who still think that whatever promises we made to improve ourselves we still might keep, let me say this: ha ha ha. Here was mine: to pack lightly. That’s right.

Resolving to keep his son in shape.
Did you made any New Year’s resolutions? Have you broken them yet? One of the most common resolutions is to exercise more and lose weight. And I am among those who have made that resolution. Except that I did not make it for myself. I made it for my son. Combating the side effects of medication We have had Kai, who has autism, on various medications for several months now. After seeing very little positive results from various ADHD and anti-anxiety drugs, Kai’s doctor advised going in a different direction. He suggested that we try Risperdal, which is the only drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of aggression in children and adolescents with autism.
