Thank you for your concise explanations of the pediatric growth and development. It has felt so overwhelming in the past but you guys make it so easy, especially the vaccines! I was always at lost to remember them all but now I have all kinds of helpful hints! Thank you! Your lessons are invaluable!

Awesome Video! They are very helpful. I just have one request. When you referencing the card. Can you announce what number card you are on? I know you mentioned Pediatric however stating what card number helps me. Especially when I’m driving. I can go back and look at it. Thanks!

Hey, I’m someone who is in late adolescence (18-20) and I was wondering about all the variations in the definition of adolescence. Some people say it’s 10-24/25, others say it only goes to 17 or 18. And some people think it’s just the teens. You say here it’s around 12 to 20, but I was wondering how accurate all these age ranges are.

Im glad that you don't want to pass moral judgement on how families teach about sex education but I think its wrong to mention abstinence only sex education and not point out that it is statistically less effective than comprehensive sex education.
