Abstract:
[ARCHIVED] This resource manual for parents and other adults who care, is easy to read and includes information on HIV/AIDS-what it is; how to talk to kids about AIDS; and risk and change. The authors point out that while each child is unique, children in a particular age group share many growth and development characteristics. Children face different potential risks for HIV infection at different ages. A chart is provided that outlines some ways adults can help children in various ages to keep healthy and prevent HIV transmission.
