If a child of 14 sits infront of the computer for most day and night ,what health issues is he facing ?

We Answered:

Quite a lot actually! You'd be best to consult a doctor for a more definative list, but some that I can think of are...
Poor posture and poor eyesight.
Poor general health - being sedentary for most hours of the day leads to poor fitness as there's no exercise being undertaken. This also leads to weight gain and potential obesity. This is also is aggravated by the fact that many people tend to snack whilst sitting at the computer as opposed to taking time out to prepare and eat a real, healthy meal.
Poor sleep patterns can develop as well as fatigue depending on how much sleep he is getting overall. If he's on there most hours of the day and night, then it sounds like he's most likely not going to be getting enough sleep which impacts the body greatly, especially at 14 when there is still a lot of development going on.

And lastly, there are the SOCIAL issues. By spending most of his time on a computer, he's not going out and spending time with other teenagers and interacting with other people, thus learning the important social skills necessary for later life.

At 14, he should really be limiting his time on the computer in favour of getting out and living life while he still can!

Does anybody know what type of CPR certification is needed in order to work at a child day care center?

We Answered:

Since American Heart Association BLS is an "upgrade" from Lay-rescuer (Heartsaver) CPR. your childcare licensing agency will accept your BLS Card. (These are the Childcare Licensing Rules for CPR in Michigan) FYI: BLS for Healthcare Provider Certification focuses on the medical (clinical) environment. In a home or child care center, if a child or infant accepts your breathing into them.... they are very ill and 99.9% chance need Chest Compressions (CPR) also. Please DONT focus on checking for a pulse in these sick or dying pediatrics. Thanks for Reading.

Want to get pregnant and have a health child?

We Answered:

Your myspace is full of excellent information and a beautiful tribute to your nephew. I lost my daughter to anencephaly in 1999 and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of her. I am so grateful for the nine months that I carried her and for the 1/2 hour that I was able to hold her in my arms before she joined her brother in heaven. My doctor never stressed to me the importance of folic acid before and during the conception stages. You are doing a wonderful public service for all those who are trying to conceive! God Bless you!

How did the caregiver's interactions help the child develop good health habits?

We Answered:

A child should not be taking food or drink from outside into a daycare. That was the parent's mistake. Bringing something that the rest of the children do not have access to, makes them want it. That causes hostilities between the children, not to mention the chance of passing germs.

Marcia Said:

I need 60 days of health insurance for my child. Where is the best place to get such short term insurance?

We Answered:

I thought that as long as some is being droped or the insurance is terminating that the new insurance would automatically pick them up at least that is what my old insurance did. Try www.eHealthInsurance.com they have short term insurance coverage but I think it's 6 months I want to say I saw as low as 3 months last time I was in there check it out.
