Whenever it rains my daughter wants to in the rain. But if she plays in the rain she falls ill. We can't let her do so. Sometimes she insists so much that we have let her go in the rain. The very night she catches fever and cough and cold. What shall I do?

I would say you don't let her out if shes going to get a cold everytime she goes out in the rain or you could just limit the time shes out for and see if it still effects her. Keep her wrapped up warm whilst shes outside and she shouldn't get a cold as easily. She could have a low immune system which means you could take her to the doctors to see if they have anything to help her with it.

Hi Jack,
I was this type when I was a child and my mama always had problems due to this. Then one day she took me to a homeopath and he prescribed me some medicines. I took those sweet tasting pills for about some weeks and then there was no fever or cough or common cold whatsoever no matter how much I was drenched.
I can recommend the same for your daughter as these medicines are not that strong and even children can safely consume them(of course in the right dosages). There are also no known side effects to consuming Homeopathy Medicines for this.
I could have suggested you to keep the child under stricter control, but I personally feel that by this, the child might develop an inferiority complex which is not good. She may also miss out many things that children of her age should generally do.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
theSids.
