Hydrocortisone is a steroid medication that treats inflammation in the body. The drug comes in an oral form to take by mouth, and a topical form to apply to the skin.
Some kids ask to be left alone as early as 5 or 6; others enjoy having your company until they start approaching puberty, closer to 9 or 10. Bathing alone, however, can be risky because of drowning dangers, and it can take just a few seconds for even older kids to slip and drown in only a few inches of water.
How old is the right age to allow a child to bath alone for a few minutes? I have a 3.5 yr old daughter. She love to play in the tub and wants to stay until the water starts getting cold. My husband wants me in there the whole time, while I am comfortable leaving her long enough to check dinner, answer the cell phone, etc. Posted: 09/18/2007 by jillannette04.
