Abstract:

The Maternal and Child Health Bureau has roots that go back over 80 years to the creation of the United States Children's Bureau on April 9, 1912, when President William Howard Taft approved an Act of Congress that created the Children's Bureau and directed it "to investigate and report on all matters pertaining to the welfare of children and child life among all classes of our people." This was the federal government's first recognition that it has a responsibility to promote the welfare of our nation's children.

Child marriage in Indonesia is the highest in the world. According to the Central Bureau of Statistics recorded 1.220.990 girls in Indonesia were married before 18. This article uses literature research to describe the impact of child marriage and policymakers' strategic steps and efforts to curb the high rate of child marriage in Indonesia. Early marriage leads to a vicious cycle of low educational attainment, domestic violence, health, maternal and child health, high maternal mortality, and poverty. As marriage ages, regulation has been changing as a strategy to reduce child marriage. Unfort

An effort to improve the health of children must consider challenges to a healthy body, mind, and spirit. It must recognize the importance of the family, community, and environment.

Clinicians and researchers concerned with children and adolescents increasingly acknowledge the importance of behavior as a determinant and an outcome of health and disease.

Abstract:

Health is an important aspect of human life. In general terms, better health status of individuals reflects reduced illnesses, low level of morbidity, and less burden of disease in a given population. It is widely recognised that improved health not only lowers mortality, morbidity and level of fertility, but also contributes to increased productivity and regular school attendance of children as a result of fewer work days lost due to illness, which in turn have implications for economic and social well-being of the population at large. Hence investing in health is vital for promoting human re

"Early to bed and early to rise, Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise," proclaimed Benjamin Franklin.1 Early warning, early detection, early periodic screening, diagnosis and treatment, early dismissal, early filing—the litany goes on. Indeed, early has always connoted an astuteness, a positive gain of some sort. Yet recent newspaper and magazine articles have challenged that adage by calling attention to observations of untoward consequences resulting from early discharge of newborns and their mothers from the hospital (Sugg DK.

Pediatric education in community settings is an idea whose time has come. The board of the Johnson & Johnson Pediatric Institute recognized this reality, and they deserve great credit for bringing together this impressive group of people for what I believe to be a watershed event.

Abstract:

Background. Growing evidence suggests that inadequate intake, poor caring practices, and disease process were some of the immediate and major causes of undernutrition in children. This points out that infant and young child feeding were the basic grounds to improve child survival and promote healthy growth and development. The first two years of a child’s life are particularly important, as optimal nutrition during this period lowers morbidity and mortality, reduces the risk of chronic disease, and enhances the chances of better development. The study was aimed to assess sick infant and young

Postpartum weight retention contributes to maternal obesity and varies by ethnicity. Despite the well-established benefits of lifestyle intervention on weight management, little is known about how to engage postpartum women effectively, especially among ethnic minority groups. This multi-methods study aimed to explore ethnic differences in women’s preferences for lifestyle intervention after childbirth. Women within five years of childbirth and living with their youngest child in Australia were recruited in an online survey (n = 504) and semi-structured interviews (n = 17). The survey and inte
