" -- people want a cure, not prevention. It would be easy to sell a book on how to cure Arthritis, but next to impossible to sell one on how to prevent arthritis." attributed to Terry Dean. (bolds are added by editor) 

Mr. Dean is talking about selling books, but it is still an obvious truth, not only about arthritis but any other affliction the human body is prone to.  I suspect the reason for that is that all of us believe we are bulletproof until the bullet actually hits.  

Kids smoke because they know their bodies are invulnerable.  Kids drink because the damage is done slowly.  That's the way the old devil works; if we got the full jolt impact on our first contact, and the dose was then doubled every time we tried it thereafter, few of us would persist in our follies.  Just imagine if a coke snorter knew s/he would have a nose cut off at the first snort, or if a cigarette user knew s/he couldn't quit coughing and wheezing for three years after that first awful puff. 

So, I've sprinkled a few preventions amongst the cures exposed here, just in case a Word of Wisdom is all you need see in order to avoid the diseases and pitfalls all too prevalent in our world.

Allergies And Kids:  Adults with allergies sometimes tough it out, if they know their allergy season is limited or if they feel they can handle the sniffles and runny eyes. But you can't take that same attitude with a child.  Their respiratory allergies can lead to chronic conditions, which for kids can mean ear infections, asthma, or altered facial structure caused by constant mouth-breathing.

Guiding Our Youth by Rhoberta Shaler, PhD, abuse is a strong word, however, that is what it is when children are bullied, forced, spanked, belittled, ignored, put down, neglected, hit, overpowered or sexually used.

Learn to Relax, the Hard Way!  I've been in constant muscular pain since the spring of 1963 when I met an alien windshield face to face.  My joints freeze up; muscles tear apart in trying to live with it.

Good Cholesterol, and Bad:  Maintaining a proper balance of cholesterol levels in the blood is essential to the health of the brain, heart, cardiovascular system and other vital organs. When the body maintains this balance, there is an unobstructed flow of oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the organs, as well as a proper removal of harmful wastes.

A counter claim about cholesterol..

 Children’s Health Insurance Issues

Are Your Kids Safe From Socially Acceptable Drugs?  Watch for changes in the personalities of your children.  If your child usually comes home and tells you all the fun they had, then suddenly stops, chances are something has happened.  Look for subtle changes too, bitterness toward other family members, self-isolation, staying in their room longer than usual, begin chewing gum, avoiding eye contact -- the key word here is change.  When their habits change, their personalities soon will follow suit.
