Answer to Question 1

Parents of infants often believe their children understand the words they say to them, and early research on the matter seemed to confirm this. However, well-controlled studies more recently have separated out the degree to which infants are responding to the actual words their parents say and the nonverbal cues their parents are giving in communications. When parents are asked to communicate to their infants while they (the parents) are out of sight from the infant, 11-month-old infants do not generally seem to understand the objects to which their parents' voices refer. On the other hand, 13-month-old infants given the same task do seem to understand the words their parents are using.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
