Do children need to have the chicken pox before they turn 14 yrs old?!
Question: all the while i thought it was best to have it during adulthood.... but i was wrong... my kids had it when they were 2 yrs . and 5 yrs.... the blisters can still be counted ( minimal) and they wounds heal fast, it can't be seen in just a few days... but whew !!! when my husband caught the virus from my two kids... it was like hell... all the skin in his body parts are covered with blisters... even the head and his penis have ... and worst... he was not allowed to take the plane back to his work because he is highly contagious... it took him years to let the wound be gone... it was 4 yrs ago, the remnants could still be seen until now...
so better to have it while young than to have when you are already a teenager....

no but it is heathlyer to get them while still a child
There's less chance of complications if a child gets chicken pox before the onset of puberty.
It's much easier to have them as a child. I had them at 15 yrs of age and It was really bad. They're worse and last longer.
I know a few people that have never had them and they're in their 40's.
I wouldn't take him/her out and purposely expose them to it.
Just build up thier immune system and this shouldn't be a problem.
