We often dont understand the code, and respond to the content of the message rather than to the feeling involved, Dr. Wender said. It takes a certain skill to communicate with children, but we can all develop this skill. Active listening giving specific is an essential faclands of feedback or parent-chil- d com tor in doctor-chil- d - munication, according to Dr. Wender. Feedback should clarify the childs hidden meaning, as in the example of the kindergarten pictures; identify for the child the feelings he shows; and suggest emotions you suspect he feels. The doctor who receives a sullen Do you have to do that again? when examining a child on morning routine rounds may respond by repeating the reasons for the exam. But, suggested Dr. Wender, an active listener might say: I can see that you're sad today, about being sick. What does that feel like? BEING AN active listener is more helpful than criticizing, giving advice, or simply trying to mollify the child, said the pediatrician. Active listening teaches children by showwhat them their emotions are; ening courages them to take responsibility for themselves; and promotes warmth and closeness in a relationship. Once a child realizes what his feelings are, he starts developing his own solutions, usually more effective than those we could offer, Dr. Wender said. sometimes appropriate and necessary for the adult to be the advisor, the criticizer, the explainer. But by always being such we assume a higher status than the child. That cuts off some types of communication, when we Its should be promoting communication. 11 ffltlhi Hot Water Can Cause Serious Burns Among Young Children Your child may be severely burned by a source as near and as innocent looking as the kitchen water faucet if you do not take the proper precautions, according to a Utah Social Services official. The water temperature in about 80 percent of Utah homes is set high enough to cause severe bums in seconds, according to Dr. Lyman Olsen, Director, Division of Health. CHILDREN UNDER 5 are the most common victims of scalds, and in most cases, it is the victim or a playmate who turns on the hot water. Olsen said that turning down the water temperature in the home would give the tots time to escape injury from water that is too hot. Lower temperatures would also prevent injuries when an adult is at fault. He explained that in some cases, adults are careless in checking the wa- ter temperature and place a child into a tub of hot water, or the child slips or jumps in. But abuse is the culprit in 60 percent of the cases when an adult was involved. Some adults lose their tempers and consider hot water a handy punishment, and many don't realize its dangers, he said. WEVE FOUND that usually when abuse is involved, many times treatment is delayed by several hours and the problem is complicated. Dr. Olsen said that there is a 34 percent mortality rate among youth scald victims. Cases of youths falling and grasping the hot water handle and being severely burned, cases of an older brother or sister trying to be mothers helper by putting a toddler into a tub of water that is too hot and cases of abuse when parents use hot water to punish toddlers have all been reported. Close parent supervision would prevent some injury, but it cannot prevent the human error that causes the wrong water tap to be turned on, or the ' anger that causes parents to abuse their children. The only real answer is to turn down the water temperature, he emphasized. Reducing the water temperature to between 49 and 52C is a reasonable compromise between a households need for hot water and the need for safety, he said. HE EXPLAINED that at 49C (120F) it takes ten minutes of exposure to cause full thickness bums of adult skin, and at 52C (125F) it takes two minutes. Childrens skin is much more sensitive and would bum in less time, but these temperatures would be much safer than the standard 60 (140F) that heaters are presently set at. At the 60 degree setting, two seconds of exposure can cause a full thickness scald of adult skin, and a child would be burned even sooner. IT REALLY isnt necessary to cope with the danger that settings above 52C cause, he said. He explained that at the lower temperaltures, home washing machines function well, home dishwashers and commercial dishwashing detergent adequately sanitize and it is safe and comfortable to wash dishes at these temperatures. Many people are confused by settings on water heaters. Gas heaters usually have a thermostat at the bottom on the outside of the tank. The 49C setting that is recommended corresponds with the lowest setting on the (120-125- gas heaters. The thermostats for electric heaters are found behind either two panels screwed onto the top and bottom of the front of the tank or behind a single panel. There are two thermostats on each heater and they both should be set at 52C (125F) or on low. These lower temperatures may take some getting used to but most people are happy to find that they are reducing the risk of scald bums and saving energy at the same time by turning down the water temperature, Ol- sen said. t |
