- We missed talking about the commemoration of Child Health Day (October 1)
- last month in the profusion of health celebrations that occurred during the
- month but it is not too late to take advantage of a special brochure that was
- produced to help our young people. Offered by MetLife, and entitled "Health
- Tips for Teens" it addresses some of the worries and questions that teens
- often have. These concerns include personal appearance, school work and
- relationships with the other sex, as well as smoking, drinking and drug use.
- Containing sections on "Growth and Weight" and "Snacks and Mini-meals" the
- booklet is crammed full of easy to understand, important information. This 10
- page publication also offers a list of reading suggestions and the addresses
- of other resources. Single copies of the booklet are available free of
- charge. Send your request along with a stamped self-addressed business size
- envelope DIRECTLY to "Health Tips for Teens", Health and Safety Education,
- Area 16-UV, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, One Madison Avenue, New York,
- NY 10010. When it arrives make certain that your youngster reads it.
