How to Deal With Disrespectful Children
When your child acts disrespectful, whether to you or another adult, it feels as though you’ve been slapped in the face. Children show disrespect for a variety of reasons, according to child psychologist, Dr. Victoria Samuel. Your child may speak back to you if he feels either ignored or that you aren’t being fair to him. He may act up simply to see how you or another grown-up will react. Whether you’re dealing with a younger child, preteen or teenager, make it clear that disrespect won’t be tolerated.
Bacterial Vaginosis in Women
It may not be something you want to discuss in public, but vaginal infections are pretty common in women of all ages. Of all those infections, bacterial vaginosis is the most common in women of childbearing age, according to the Centers of Disease Control. It’s also common in pregnant women, at least in the United States. Bacterial vaginosis has symptoms similar to other infections, such as STDs or yeast infections.
Foot Pain in Children
Children’s feet grow faster than any other part of their body. Most children’s feet have completed growing by early puberty. Foot pain can result from the quick growth, since children may outgrow their shoes faster than you can buy them new ones, or their feet bones may outgrow the foot muscles, resulting in real growing pains.
Underarm Odor in Kids
Underarm odor is often a telltale sign that your child is about to go through puberty, the period of life when he develops from a child into an adult. Since underarm odor, also called body odor, often smells pretty unpleasant, it can be embarrassing for your child, especially if he has no idea what’s going on.
African American Kids Hair Styles
African American hair tends to be thicker and stronger than other ethnic hair. Some African American hairstyles simply won’t work on thinner or drier hair. When choosing a hairstyle for your child, think simple. The less time you have to spend at the salon and the fewer treatments and products your child has on her hair, the better for her and the future of her hair.
