In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: “Suggest” is the verb form of “suggestion.” When you make a suggestion, you offer an opinion.  The word “suggest” is similar to the word "demand", in that they are both putting forth a request. However, “demand” is a very strong word; when you demand something, you are not giving the person you are talking to much of a choice. You are willing them to do something. The word “suggest”, on the other hand, is more of a request. You want your idea to be heard, but you are not requiring that it be fulfilled. When you suggest to a group that you go for ice cream, you are hopeful that you will be able to go, but you are open to other thoughts and ideas. “Suggest” is a transitive verb. Therefore, a sentence containing the word "suggest" must have a subject, the verb “suggest,” and a direct object.  All sentences must have a subject. A subject is a noun or a pronoun, which is a person, place, thing, or idea. A pronoun stands in for a noun; it is a way of referring to something without saying the same word over and over again. Examples of pronouns include "he", "she", "it" and "they". All sentences must also have a verb. Whereas the noun or pronoun does the action, the verb is  the action; i.e. it tells what the noun is doing. Some verbs are called transitive verbs, which means they must have a direct object. A direct object is also noun or pronoun. However, this time, the action is happening to the noun, rather than performing the action.
Summary: Know the meaning of the word "suggest". Understand how the word "suggest" works within the structure of a sentence.

Hypothyroidism is the condition where you have an underactive thyroid. All forms of hypothyroidism can be caused by viral infections, radiation damage, some medications, pregnancy, and other rarer causes.

This condition can be a result of Grave’s disease, tumors, thyroiditis (inflammation), thyroid nodules, and some medications. Symptoms of an overactive thyroid include:  Rapid heart rate or palpitations Increased respiratory rate Frequent and loose bowel movements or diarrhea Fine hair that may be falling out Unexplained weight loss Nervousness, irritability, a feeling of high energy Anxiety or panic attacks Psychosis Moodiness Intolerance to heat Sweatiness Reddish skin which may be itchy Remember that many of these symptoms are not specific to thyroid disease. Determine if you have multiple symptoms, or just a few. If you are unsure, go to your physician for tests. For example, gaining weight may be due to eating more or exercising less, and not due to thyroid disease. Feeling nervous or anxious may be due to a new job or an underlying mental health issue. Skin dryness can be due to low humidity or not enough healthy fats in the diet. Constipation can be due to not enough fiber in your diet or a number of digestive conditions while diarrhea can be due to digestive conditions or food sensitivities.

Problem: Article: Make sure your child isn’t just memorizing information. Instead, work with them to make them think deeply about their assignments, as this will allow them to really understand what they’re learning.  You can ask questions like: “Why do you think your teacher would assign this type of project? What do you think you’ll learn from it?” When your child gets a correct answer, ask them to explain how they came up with it. At the beginning of the school year, sit with your child and write down three to five goals related to their schoolwork and study habits. Halfway through and again at the end of the year, look at your list and check your progress.  Your child’s goals can be related to their study habits, or to doing well on a particular assignment. These goals can be things like: “Learn to take more effective notes,” “Improve my grades in Earth Science” or “Read a chapter book on my own.” Talk to your child to find out if they have a friend they’d enjoy studying with, or check with your child’s teacher or a librarian at the local library to find a study buddy for your child. You and the friend’s parents can take turns hosting a weekly study session for your kids.  Encourage your child and their friend to help each other out with each of their strongest subjects. One might be “in charge” of math, and the other of reading. Having a study buddy is a great way to get your child in the habit of quizzing themselves or other people to commit information to their memory. Make sure the sessions don’t turn into social hours by checking in frequently. You can do so sneakily by bringing over snacks or having the study sessions in a common area of your home. Make sure your child stays positive about their schoolwork. Even if they’re struggling with a class, remind them that all they can do is try their best, and that you’re here to help. Even if your child is panicking because they’ve totally forgotten they need to make a volcano display by 6am the next morning, don’t add to the crisis by getting angry. You should both take deep breaths and tackle the situation calmly. While you want your child to strive for the best grades they can get, you also don’t want to make them anxious or achievement-obsessed. Tell your child that you want them to try their best, and that the grades are secondary. This will help them learn to study for the knowledge rather than the A.
Summary:
Help your child ask questions and think critically. Make specific study goals. Set your child up with a study buddy. Avoid letting your child panic over school. Focus on your child’s efforts instead of grades.
