I have been dealing daily with lots of kids..and i feel like a monster!! hahaha well it is because every time i enter their room to give their medicines they will start to cry..even if i will be just dropping by to check their condition they won't let us get near them and they are sure hard to give medicines especially if we will be using an injection..but some kids are not afraid of us..they even love us..they like drinking medicines and they are not a problem..how about your kids? are they afraid of us nurses? they even call us white ladies..hehehehe

I think i'm afraid of nurses and doctors too, when i was a kid.. lol =D Because i dislike medicine and i will associate all doctors and nurse with medicine, always scaring me and forcing me to drink the bitter medicine in order to get well from my sickness.. lol =D
As for injection, i dun have any idea of it, and i dunno y i'm not scare of that, maybe i had a good experience from it.. lol

Yeah, though medicine now has got flavours, but tstill the original taste of the medicine will still be there and i just hate that smell.. hehe.. Especially when going to hospital, once enter the hospital, i can smell the medicine everywhere io go.. lol

My kids are not afraid of the nurses.They are afraid of the injection.In here when my kids are given injection there are around 3 or 4 nurses around trying to take their attention.When it comes to taking medicine i don't have problem...they just open their mouth....maybe because they want to get out of the situation-being sick.

No! Certainly my grandkids do love nurses. They are lovely to their sight. What with the all white uniforms from cap to shoes. And of course their friendly smiles that make children feel they have nothing to fear. It is not actually in the Nurses that they are afraid, it is in the things that you are carrying most especially the injection. But with medicine... no problem with my grandkids, they love taking medicine... I don't know why. Even if they have no fever or not sick they will always ask for medicine if they see a bottle. Ha!ha!ha! They probably thought they are also the same as the vitamins they regularly take.
