Because politicians want to make vaccines mandatory for infants and teenagers, they are by default placed in the at risk group. Parents don’t want to think that their children might or have the potential for engaging in risky behavior that could put them at risk for contracting sexually transmitted diseases. Allen continues on and argues that the HPV vaccine is as common as the flu and that is the reason why it should be mandatory to get children vaccinated against the virus.

It is pivotal that children should get several vaccines because it would secure them from any types of exposures such as measles, mumps, rubella or chickenpox for a protracted time. MMR is a good example in which it’s a combined vaccination and it allows a child to have fewer injections as well as getting less pain. It’s a way of protecting your children from getting sick, missing school, daycare or even time as well as money.

In GATTACA, the social norm is to go to geneticists and allow them to fertilize the egg and sperm so that the child will have the least likely chance of diseases and the most likely chance for success. It is understood that the genome is not changed; however, the most successful genes are chosen from the parents’ genome for each trait, “this child is still you, simply, the best of you” (Niccol, 1997). Today’s standards allow in vitro fertilization only for couples who may be infertile. Embryo DNA is also tested for certain diseases through preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). PGD is intended for couples at high risk of having children with certain genetic disorders.

Consequently, its health is dependent on the health of the mother. It cannot survive outside the womb at that time, so it cannot be regarded as a separate human being.

Nutrition related concerns are addressed by having the proper documentation from the child's physician. The only way Head Start recognizes an allergy to foods, medications and anything else it has to be documented by the child's physician. Parents can not just fill out a paper or tell the facility about it. Concessions will be made to make sure the child is not served or given anything they are allergic to. The company that makes the breakfast and lunches for each facility will be notified so they can prepare and label it so it does not get mixed in with the regular food.

Older children can usually be treated at home through solutions and rehydrating drinks prescribed by the paediatrician and in pharmacies. The doctor may need to analyse your baby's blood, urine and feces to confirm that diarrhoea is caused by rotavirus and not by bacteria. Because antibiotics do not work against diseases caused by viruses, your doctor will not give your child antibiotics to treat rotavirus infection. American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) recommended that rotavirus vaccination be included among the routine vaccinations given to all children in the United States. The recommendation is to give three doses by mouth to the 2, 4, and 6 months of age.

If they are given solid foods at any age before 4-6 months, they'll most likely push out the solid food due to the sucking reflex of the mouth.
