My Son’s Favorite Drink

My Son’s Favorite Drink

First day to school is important in everyone’s life because it gives excitement and nervousness not only to the kid, but also to the parents. We often don’t remember our first day to school but when we ask our parents they still will have the memory in their heart. My son turns 4 this June and till now he was only in daily care only for about 3 to 4 hours. My son is very naughty. No surprise in this fact, today’s generations are so faster than us. He needs somebody to supervise him all over the day and at times I feel that my energy is not sufficient for me to take care of him. As every mother’s wish is to be with their kid all through the day and same is my feeling too. I decided to be with him till he goes to school and so I took long leave from my teaching profession.
We planned him to shift for kinder garden and searched a school for him nearby my house, so as to reduce the travelling time and to avoid tiredness. At last we got admission in school which is very near to our residence. But from this year he has to be in school from morning 9 A.M till evening 3.30 P.M. This puts me in great anxiety because form the day he was born he was under my care and control. I have never leaved him the whole day under somebody’s control. The very first day, I and my husband were in busy in getting him ready to school. I and my husband were with full of eagerness than my son. One thing which makes us worry is that he must love the school and he should not shed tears while in the morning to school. Everything is fine and we left him under his teacher and returned back home.
I could not wait till 3 P.M and we were there in school at 2 PM to pick him. When he returned from his class he was very happy and from his face I could feel that he loved the school very much. But one thing I noticed with him is that he was very tired and almost in exhausted state. Since that was the first day I consoled myself that I would be alright in the following day. But everyday he returns from school he feels sleepy and I felt that he is not active. We observed him for almost 20 days and then we decided to take him to pediatrician. He examined him thoroughly and finally he reported that suffers from insufficient nutrition and energy. He also added that my son has not attained correct weight which is needed for his age and height. This bothered me lot because all these days I was in assumption that he has attained correct growth and development which is needed for his age.

Later, our family doctor advised to give him some Health and Nutrition drink and suggested us Horlicks Growth plus for my child. Its about 15 days that we are giving him Horlicks Growth plus chocolate flavor both in the morning and evening as substituent to milk. I could feel the difference in him. He plays in the evening with his friends and is more active till night after school. Above all, he does his homework all by himself.
