Respiratory Conditions
It is difficult to see the positive side of bacterial or viral infection in children when you are dealing with runny noses, vomiting and crankiness. However, the infections that we have as children may actually have some benefits for our health.
However, it is important to remember that even though childhood infections can help our immune systems to develop they can also cause serious symptoms and potentially life threatening complications. Getting vaccinated and practicing good hygiene to avoid infection is much better for your child than exposing them to these risks. Most children will still catch plenty of coughs and colds, but they will hopefully avoid the more serious diseases.
