How do you tell if your kid is really sick?!
Question: How do you tell if your kid is really sick!?
I feel like such a wicked step-mother right now!. He was out sick one day last week telling me that he had an upset stomach and felt shakey - he did sleep all day - something this kid just doesn't do!. He goes to bed pretty much at 10pm - 11pm and is just a typical 15 y/o - mouthy, indignant etc!. However, he was fine the rest of the week, great all weekend - (he did take a nap yesterday, and we had a bit of a tussle yesterday because one of his friends is a scumbag - but!.!.!.!.!. )
and then 10 minutes before school today - he comes in and says "I don't feel like going"!.
I took his temp!. it was 95!.7, three times in a row - then I took mine to test the therm!. and it was 98!.3 - so I know it's working correctly!. He has acid stomach and is shakey!. I made him go to school - however I called the school and told them that he wasn't feeling well and was going to be a bit late - and they said that they'd watch out for him today (it's a very small school)!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'd just believe him if I were you!. If it becomes a habit, then maybe I'd be a little suspicious!. But not believing your kid will make them feel bad!. And that might make them feel even physically worse!. So try making him some soup or hot cocoa for him when he gets home, or get him a coke to make his stomach feel better and tell him that the only reason you're making him go to school is because it's a requirement!. Maybe even schedule a doctor's appointment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
15 y/o need 10 to 12 hours sleep per night!. That age is a growth period!. Get him to bed much earlier from now on!. He is sleep deprived!.
If T!.V!. is the problem then record the shows he likes for weekend viewing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
