A child (plural: children) is a human being between the stages of birth and puberty. The legal definition of "child" generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority. "Child" may also describe a relationship with a parent or authority figure, or signify group membership in a clan, tribe, or religion; it can also signify being strongly affected by a specific time, place, or circumstance, as in "a child of nature" or "a child of the Sixties." DefinitionsThe United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child defines a child as "every human being below the age of 16 years unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier." Biologically, a child is anyone in the developmental stage of childhood, between infancy and adulthood. Attitudes toward childrenSocial attitudes toward children differ around the world in various cultures. These attitudes have changed over time and in different historical periods. A 1988 study on European attitudes toward the centrality of children found Italy was more child-centric and the Netherlands less child-centric, with other countries (Austria, Great Britain, Ireland, and West Germany) falling in between.

I`m moving from country to country because my hubby is a businessman, so I have difficulty of tracking my children immunization schedule, besides the services in some country I am in is terrible. They have so many children coming in and out the immunization department. They didn`t even use swab before injection. And sometimes nurses come to your door to give polio to your child. They didn`t ask whether your child had taken or not. Sometimes my children have polio twice in a month. Once at school and one at home. I heard that immunization is not necessary now. It is parents` choice. Should I just refuse to get immunization for my children? or what the most important one my child should have? Asked by Aysha - Tue Jul 18 10:17:43 2006 - - 7 Answers - 1 Comments A. It is one of the most important thing you can do for your child. All children need to be immunized. Breastmilk can protect babies only until 6 months. After that you need the shots. Do not believe all those nutjobs that say immunizations are no longer necessary. All we need is enough of those to bring even smallpox back! If you dont immunize your child could get sick and die from an illness that could be so easily preventable. Just imagine how you would feel then? Its not worth the risk. Dont worry about them getting a couple more shots than usual. Especially it doesnt matter with the oral polio thats why they dont ask. It wont hurt, provided the child hasnt had any allergic reactions previously.

Q. My fiance and I are planning on having children eventually. In his family, three of the five children have autism. My side is clear. What are the chances of us having a child with autism? Asked by plainblueyes - Thu Jun 28 19:46:56 2007 - - 5 Answers - 3 Comments A. Autism has a genetic component. If autism runs in your family, you have an increased risk of having a child with autism. If you already have one child with autism, you have an increased risk of having another child with autism. The genes associated with autism are complex -- and a genetic inclination toward autism may require an environmental "trigger" to cause symptoms Answered by JJ - Thu Jun 28 19:53:28 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Children" Quotes regarding children.
