You’ve probably heard of empty-nest syndrome, but it’s not just moms and dads who sometimes feel sad when kids go

away to school. Our pets can also get the blues! Some dogs get depressed when kids go back to school in the fall or off to college for the first time, especially if they’ve spent a lot of time together during the summer. Cats can also get distressed when their normal routine is interrupted! Our pets have an expectation of something predictable. When that doesn’t happen, they can get distraught and meow more than usual, or get lethargic and sleep longer. So what’s the cure for depressed dogs and cats? For dogs, a lot of exercise can help. It’ll release endorphins, the feel-good chemicals in the brain. Yes - dogs have them too! It’s also important to remem-ber that your dog is sensitive to your emotional state.If you’re depressed about your child going away to college, your dog will pick up on that. Getting out and walking your dog will be good therapy for both of you. Another good idea is to have the child who’s going away leave behind a worn piece of clothing, like a T-shirt. Having the scent of their favorite person around will help your dog relax and it sometimes works for cats as well. Another thing to help cats is to have a different family member take over the routine, feeding them and playing with them, and letting the cat sleep in their room. Ultimately, just like with humans, the best remedy is time. Your pet is sure to perk up if they get lots of love and attention no matter who’s giving it. Aww...give some extra love for fur babies, and you'll have happy pets sitting with you as you listen tonight to The John Tesh Radio Showon WTYM.

Senator Don White helped kick off a new public education program to inform grandparents of their

expanded right to seek custody of their grandchildren during a press conference in the State Capitol on Tues-day, October 2.

Senator White, author of Act 21 of 2018, helped the Pennsylvania Bar Association (PBA) launch the “Un-derstanding When Grandparents and Others Can Seek Custody” public information campaign.

As a result of the opioid epidemic sweeping the state, more and more grandparents, other family members and neighbors are becoming primary caregivers of mi-nor children when parents are absent. Recent statistics from Grandfamilies.org show that 103,000 children in Pennsylvania live with a relative with no parent pres-ent and more than 88,000 grandparents are householders responsible for their grandchildren who live with them.

Act 21 of 2018, which went into effect in Pennsylva-nia on July 3, 2018, expands custody rights for caregiv-ers who find themselves in tragic situations like these provided they can show that they have a sustained, sub-stantial and sincere interest in the welfare of the child.

“Too many lives have been tragically cut short by the opioid epidemic that is ravaging communities across the state and their children end up becoming caught up in the turmoil that ensues,” said Senator White.

Senator White spoke at a press conference in the Cap-itol Rotunda.

“It was determined that the grandparents did not have standing to pursue custody because they did not meet the criteria under state law, as revised in 2010,” said Senator White. “There is an age-old adage that blood is thicker than water, but that simple truism wasn’t codi-fied in the volumes and volumes of family law and the Farrens were treated as outsiders by the court. That’s just not right for the grandparents or the children.”

Standing, in a legal sense, is a preliminary step that determines only which parties can be in the courtroom pursuing custody. In a custody trial the court consid-ers the “best interests of the children” and takes into ac-count the children’s relationship with all of the parties.
