Question
During tutoring hours, the child always says they are tired and has poor balance. At home, they love to lie down. Is this a sign of poor physical condition? Or is it just short of breath when reading?
Answer
Poor balance may indicate sensory integration and endocrine disorders, which could be related to insufficient training in this area during childhood. If shortness of breath only occurs when reading, but not during physical activities, the most likely cause is psychological interference. If the child always feels tired and doesn’t like to exercise, there is a possibility of poor physical condition. However, it is primarily important to focus on diet and enhance physical training. It is also advisable to undergo a few comprehensive medical checks at the hospital first.
