A study that investigated the perceptions of educational professionals regarding the rising issue of aggressive and disruptive behaviors among young children in inner-city schools is discussed in this article. A convenient sample of 14 professionals were selected and interviewed from educators in an inner-city located in the northeast region of Ohio. Evidence of this investigation suggests that young children’s aggressive behaviors are increasing in both occurrence and complexity. While these behaviors are perceived to be a function of certain environmental exposures, a case can be made for the effectiveness in conflict management and life skill application in young children as many children seem to display more problems in collective and social settings.

211 kindergarten children were interviewed in September and again in May concerning their career aspirations. On both occasions the interviewer asked for a first career choice; if something other than a real job was given, the interviewer asked for a second choice. During the September interview, 74% supplied a “real” career as their first choice and 10% gave real career responses as a second choice. Eight months later, 89% gave real careers as a first choice. Of those giving a real career response on the first occasion 46% chose the same occupation at the second interview, suggesting that kindergarten children have realistic career aspirations, and these aspirations are stable. Nonreal career aspirations appear to diminish during this period. Children from inner city schools had higher rates of nonreal responses and lower stability of choice than other groups.

Recommended Dose

The parents of 96 young children seen in an inner-city walk-in clinic for perceived or measured "fever" were asked about their management of the symptom. Eighty-eight (92%) administered acetaminophen, and of these, 67% gave less than the usual recommended dose of 10 to 15 mg/kg per dose. Underdosing was most commonly noted in the younger, lighter patient population. Of the parents who gave an acetaminophen elixer preparation (160 mg/5 mL), 26% measured the dose with the 0.8-mL dropper intended for use with the infant drops preparation (80 mg/0.8 mL), resulting in significant Underdosing of acetaminophen (2.3 ± 1.3 mg/kg per dose). Health care professionals should specifically inquire about the details of acetaminophen administration when discussing antipyresis with parents.
