Whitney Port is known for her roles on The Hills and The City, and behind the scenes, she’s keeping busy as the mom of an active toddler son.

Whitney was surprised by the amount of unsolicited advice she got as a new mom, and confused about where to turn. Old wives tails like saltwater to cure infections or putting butter on burns are outdated and can be dangerous. Kids will inevitably get minor cuts, scrapes, and burns, especially in summer.

If your child gets a minor wound, clean it well, treat it with an antibacterial spray like Betadine, and protect it with a bandage.
