When your child turns 18, they become a legal adult. This means that they are now fully responsible for their medical care decisions, and their doctors and nurses can talk only to them. Their healthcare records (and their myChart access) also become private that that time. This right is protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accessibility Act (HIPAA). This may seem like a lot of responsibility for a young adult, especially for teens with developmental disabilities or health care needs....

When talking about food or eating with a child, conversation should be around the positive aspects of the food....
