Re: when you should know when your childs is sick
Its a good start... perhaps you can expand on all your reasons for why we should be able to tell why our child is sick.
for instance, why its important to keep a close eye on kids when they have a 101.5 temp.
Also, diarrhoea can be caused because of too much fruit, so its not necessarily because of a virus.
Good advice though, Cheers.
