From infancy to adolescence, parents navigate a world of questions about their child’s health. When should they seek medical attention? How can they protect their child from bullying or harmful substances? Childhood is a time of rapid growth and development, marked by milestones and potential challenges. Obesity, diabetes, hearing loss, allergies, and other health issues can affect children.
