• New School Year, Same Parking Feud? (tworivertimes.com) — Parking rules near Red Bank Regional High School in Little Silver are reshaping where students can leave their cars, after Fair Haven imposed three-hour limits on several bordering streets during school hours. The move aims to curb congestion and safety issues residents have raised since the pandemic, while officials monitor whether the restrictions simply shift the problem. School leaders say they'll keep adjusting permit allocations as the year goes on.
   

• Swap the Scroll for a Skill: Helping Kids Choose Healthier Media (movieguide.org) — A Little Silver psychologist is sharing practical ways parents can steer kids toward healthier screen habits by focusing on how media affects their mood and choices.
