Adolescent Children : Needs and Requirements

Every child needs good health. That’s not even a debate clean point. In a country like India where the majority of population still lives in the rural parts, it is extremely difficult to find individuals who are physically, mentally and psychologically fit and fine. Every day, more than 20,000 people are diagnosed with diseases that still have no cure in the medical field and there are still many deaths in rural areas that could have been averted had proper treatment been made accessible to those in need. Of all the age groups where such life threatening diseases can become dreadful, childhood and adolescence is the most sensitive one as this is the age when one begins to experience development in various aspects of his life – physically, mentally as well psychologically.
