Questions? Concerns? Nobody to ask? I could answer teen growth questions and menstruation problems. No need to feel shy. I have/had many questions and know how it feels not to feel comfortable asking anybody.

Experience
I did alot of research through my teen years, and am still doing.

Which formule should we use to compute the weight that is over for both children and teens. i mean telling people how much they weight over normal.

Answer -
Hi,

I'm not sure what your question is.
Would you like to know in what range your weight is?

Please write back to me,
Diana
---------------------------
No, i don't want that. i want to know how we can get the weight of a child and calculate the standard height that he must have and calculation needs a formule. ok?


Answer
Hi,

You want to know if your child is in the normal range of weight and height?
Your doctor will use a chart to find out if your child is the right weight and height for his age. Some kids have heavier bones and so weight more. Your Doctor will notice if that is the case.

There is no formula for kids since they are still growing.

Hope that helped,
Diana
