Kids need plenty of water and fruit to prevent constipation
* My son, who is 10, suffers from constipation. His diet is reasonably good — he has Weetabix for breakfast and eats brown sliced bread for lunch — but refuses to eat fruit or drink water. At the moment he has a bowel movement twice a week. This can’t be normal.
>>Constipation is a very common problem in children and it’s important to recognise and tackle it early on so that it does not become an ongoing problem.
