The Habit Villain Case Files: PainProof Kids

A Detective’s Guide to Solving Kids’ Pain—Before It Becomes a Lifetime Problem

What if your child’s pain isn’t random…
What if it isn’t “just growing pains”…
What if it’s being quietly trained—every single day?

In PainProof Kids, Doctor of Physical Therapy Dr. Ariana Fontenot and educator Alysia Guido invite kids, parents, and teachers into a powerful new role:

🕵️ Habit Detectives.

Through real-life case files, unforgettable kid heroes, and eye-opening “aha” moments, this illustrated detective-style book reveals the hidden habit villains shaping children’s bodies long before anyone notices the pain.

🚨 THE HIDDEN TRUTH NO ONE IS TEACHING KIDS

Kids spend:
• 3,000 hours a year sleeping
• 50,000 hours sitting by age 15
• 30,000 hours looking down at screens by adulthood

And yet…

No one teaches them how to sleep, sit, or use screens in ways that protect their growing bodies.

The result?
Pain. Fatigue. Headaches. Anxiety. Injuries that don’t heal.
And families chasing solutions that never address the real cause.

🗂️ INSIDE THESE CASE FILES, YOU’LL MEET:

• Emma, a 9-year-old gymnast with “Rice Krispies neck” — fixed by changing how she slept
• Jacob, a soccer player sidelined for months — until his couch was exposed as the villain
• Marcus, a straight-A student facing possible surgery — saved by a simple screen adjustment

Each mystery is solved the same way:
🔍 Investigate the habit
🧠 Change the pattern
💥 Watch the body respond—fast

🛠️ WHAT MAKES PAINPROOF KIDS DIFFERENT

✔ Written by a Doctor of Physical Therapy who works like a detective
✔ Co-authored with a classroom teacher who sees these habits daily
✔ Kid-friendly, story-driven, and illustrated for real understanding
✔ Evidence-based, yet simple enough for kids to teach their parents
✔ Focused on prevention—before pain becomes a lifelong problem

No complicated exercises.
No expensive equipment.
No fear-based messaging.

Just awareness, small changes, and powerful results.

🌍 THIS BOOK IS FOR:

• Parents who don’t want pain to be “normal” for their kids
• Teachers who see students melting into desks and chairs
• Kids who want to feel strong, confident, and pain-free
• Families tired of chasing answers that never stick

⭐ THE BIG IDEA

Kids aren’t broken.
Their habits are.

And when kids learn to notice their habits early, they don’t just fix pain—
they prevent it for life.
