Summary Introduction

To examine: Whether the statement “The family may be worried about handling Person S  if she grows as expected for her age” is true or false.

Introduction: Growth charts illustrate typical body measurement of children in the form of percentile curves. They are used to assess growth in children on the basis of their age. However, chronic conditions in children that affect growth cannot be assessed on the basis of these growth curves but would require specialized growth charts prepared especially on the basis of their condition.
