It is difficult to change a child the way we wish to change them.
No scolding, no punishment really works as they are innocent and do not have any understanding of consequences of their act.
They can only be taught in a friendly manner and by repetitive feedback to their brain...
Jazy Taara does this exactly, it is part of the behaviour changing communication for kids.

Fever...
These days viral fever tops the list of seasonal illnesses.
Fever is often accompanied by vomitings, reduced food intake, cough and irritability...
With so many symptoms, children are prescribed 3 to 4 medicines.
It is best to concentrate first on reducing fever with medicine / sponging/or with slow intake of glucose water...
As soon as child is afebrile, he starts accepting feeds and vomiting disappears. He becomes playful and accepts rest of the medicine comfortably...
Keep your child afebrile and pass the time of illness easily 😊😊😊

Dengue is scary for me too...
Dengue is a common viral infection spread by Aedes Mosquito.
Mosquito bites occur after Sunrise and before Sunset, very much unlike other mosquito bites causing Malaria.
Virus is of four types, like Den1 .....4. Infection for one type do not make a person immune to the other type. Even next Den attack is more serious.
Every year I fear , one day I may also have it. Please take all the precautions as there is no abortive treatment beside a strong vigilant supportive care.
It is more devastating at extremes of age i.e. in babies and elderly.

We in India have almost all facilities but still we do not match developed countries. Main difference lies in planning. One example is Rh disease/incompatibility in newborn, which causes them severe jaundice. If not treated properly it can lead to brain damage, deafness or sometimes death.

Treatment is exchange transfusion or immunoglobulin (a very expensive drug)

Baby comes to nursery with severe jaundice but parents are not even aware of mother's blood group (which is usually Rh negative). Family is not at all prepared for exchange. We often waste precious time in searching compatible Rh negative blood.

We all do similar blood exchange of babies. On the contrary our colleagues from developed countries even do not remember when they did last exchange transfusion.

Please do not ignore guidance of your doctor...

Symptoms are same but approaches are different for same symptoms...
Most common eg... Jaundice in a newborn baby...
60 percent of babies develop jaundice on day 3 of life... Treatment is very much individualised and depends on many factors like
1. Blood group of mother as well as of baby.
2. Baby is first baby of the couple or second one!
3. Is baby having adequate breastfeed?
4. Does baby have associated conditions like thyroid or some infections?
5. Few families genetically have lack of enzymes like G6PD or others...
6. It is always important to know whether first sibling had jaundice after birth or not...
7. There are many more reasons, which are rare but do occur. It is not only sunlight which affects it...
Please help us to plan better for your baby...

Our whatsapp is full of treatment queries and we get endless calls for treatment on phone. Now even facebook messenger is overflowing with long detailed messages for treatment. 

It is very risky and life threatening to prescribe any medications just on behalf of symptoms.

Allopathy's main strength is a good physical examination, which helps us in excluding serious diseases or confirming diagnosis . Even if we say it seems like viral, it is only after good clinical examination otherwise in children even Malaria or typhoid can mimic viral infection ..there is no season-specific antidote available so far...

Moreover, course of childhood illnesses have become very unpredictable in recent years and some seriousness may be just missed until a repeated examination is carried out by doctor like Jaundice, Dengue fever and even more...

Even a problem as simple as cough could be a subtle sign of an underlying serious chest disease.

All diseases have signals for seriousness which are picked up early only by a doctor. eg telephonicTreatment of Diarrhea can be devastating as you do not know early deterioriation.

Teens do not think as parents think...
Teens may look like adults but they are not adults. Their brain matures functionally to adult level at around 20 years of age. Parents should not expect from teens, their level of maturity. They are different, parents should understand they are different.
Teens are more prone to accidents, drug addiction and the like... They should not be allowed independent driving and boundaries should be set for their social outings... they should be exposed to Internet ONLY under supervision. It is not about surge of hormone but it is about development of Prefrontal Cortex (part involved in decision making, motivation, organizing & attention).
This is the area which helps us to understand consequences of our act.
Prefrontal cortex develops to adult level at 20 yrs of age.
It does not mean they can not make good decisions but understanding of this differences helps parents to manage them better.
