Adolescence is a time when
health needs special watching
and it’s also a time when the
youngster himself needs to take
over much of the responsibility
for his health habits.
Here is where a doctor you
have been going to for years
and who knows the child well
can be of tremendous help.
As a parent, see to it that the
doctor’s appointment is made
and then stay in the back-
ground. Tell the doctor ahead of
time anything you are especial-
ly worried about, but, at the
time of the examination let the
young adolescent ask his own
questions and get his own an-
swers. Have a conference with
the doctor a day or two after he

Vision and Hearing
Vision and hearing need to be
carefully checked during the
school years. Many a youngster
is accused of being dull or stu-
pid when what is really the
matter is thst he doesn’t see or
hear all that’s going on.
Feet
Feet are especially important
at school age. Some of the shoes
that become the fad among
school youngsters are very bad
for growing feet. If your child’s
feet show bad effects from faul-
ty shoes you may have to lay
down the law that only proper
shoes may be worn. If the child
himself understands from the
doctor whst the poor shoes are
doing to his feet he is more
likely to cooperate willingly
It is desirable for children to
have the protection before they
enter school and most parents
do see that their children are
given these shots in infancy.
The law steps in when children
enter school and says that then
all children must be protected.
After you have had the medi-
cal checkup for your kinder-
gartner, take him to the dentist.

time you can talk over your
teen-age problems. You may
find the doctor a lot of help.
After the doctor has examined
your youngster thoroughly he
will talk to him about the im-
portance of a balanced diet, of
getting plenty of milk and eggs,
meat, fruit and vegetables and
perhaps going a little easy with
the malted milk and cake.
Maybe the doctor will make
some suggestions about those
after school snacks that every
high school child must have and
which often interfere with sup-
per and cause friction between
child snd parent. If the doctor
says so, both Adele and Tom
with prohibitions against the
shoes the gang are wearing.
Tonsils
Did your child have many
sore throats last winter? Does
he breathe through his mouth,
or snore at night? Maybe he
needs his tonsils and adenoids
removed. Removal of tonsils
will not prevent colds but some-
times after many sore throats
tonsils become so diseased they
are doing the child more harm
than good. The doctor is the
only one who can decide this.
Behavior
if your school age child’s be-
havior worries you, be sure to
talk it over with your doctor.
Did he have trouble in school
last yesr, either with his school
work, or with other children?
There may be things you can
do during the summer that will
help your child to adjust better
next year in school.
Teeth
Be sure to take your child to
the dentist well before the be-
ginning of school

The doctor probably will ask
you questions about your child’s
habits. Does he eat well and is
Ms diet adequate? What time
does he go to bed? Does he get
an afternoon rest? Does he
have any habits that bother you
or that might make school ad-
justment difficult? Does he
have laws that make it neces- tra sleep. You as parent can co-
sary for every child to be pro- operate on this sleep business

ing cough
shots the doctor will give him
the first one at the time of his
preschool examination. It takes
three of these shots to protect
your child adequately, and you
will have to,arrange to bring
him back for the other two in-
jections. The value of these
“shots” wears off in time. A
booster shot should be given ev-
ery two years. If it is more
than two years since your child
had his last shot the doctor will
give him a booster at the time
of his preschool examination.
Now that polio shots have
been given to so many children
it is to be hoped that your child
has received them by this time.

these teen-age worries. With a
little explanation of growth and
maturity patterns he may be
able to give greatly needed re-
assurance that a year or two is
air that’s needed to bring the
child’s size in line with his con-
temporaries.
Adolescents often have vary-
ing degrees of acne. Even
though these skin blemishes
may not be serious from the
medical point of view they can
be extremely serious to the
youngster. Acne is a most un-
fortunate disease in that it
comes st a time of life when
the child is becoming most sen-
sitive about his appearance.
Much can be done about it, if
treatment is started before the
blemishes are large. Let the
child talk it over with his doc-
tor.
The teens are bad times for
teeth. See that your youngster
gets to the dentist at least every
six months during these years.
If the dentist finds much to be
done at six month intervals, bet-
ter make the dental checkups
every three months.
If you can possibly afford it
have gold inlays instead of
amalgam fillings put in your
adolescents’ teeth. The gold
costs more but will probably
never have to be replaced. The
amalgam fillings may need to
be replaced at a time your child
is just out in the world on his
own and can ill-afford big den-
tal bills.
Vision and hearing should be
checked every year during the
teens. But unlike the younger
children, the teen-agers will
complain if they cannot see or
hear as well as they have been
accustomed to.
The doctor will of course ex-
amine the child completely and
detect anything in heart, lungs,
kidneys or what have you that
may not be functioning proper-
ly. The teens are the years of
robust health and fundamental
disorders are less likely to
make their appearance during
these years than in the years
before and after.

might be glad to drink white

Armed with the doctor’s ad-
vice to the kids you can im-
prove your relations with your
troublesome adolescents by la-
beling a shelf in the refrigera-

piled with nutritious and tasty
after-school snacks.
The doctor can help a lot on
the question of sleep. If he ex-
plains to the teen-ager that be-
cause he is growing so fast he
actually needs more sleep than
he did a few years ago, he may
persuade Tom that nobody is
hying to keep him a baby by
suggesting he go to bed st a
reasonable hour. It’s just not
smart to let yourself feel rotten
