Q: Vaccinating your child against the flu each year is the absolute best way to protect your child. The vaccine generally protects against three to four common strains of flu virus. Because the virus is ever-changing, your child must get a flu shot every season  — a flu shot last season won't protect them this season.  You and the other members of your family should also get flu shots. Children between six months and eight years old may need two doses within 28 days of each other if it is the first time they have received the flu shot. Ask your doctor to find out if your child needs two doses. This will help him to reduce the number of times they are sick with the flu and teach them avoid passing it to others when they do get sick. Teach your child to wash their hands before eating, after going to the bathroom, and after blowing their nose, coughing, or sneezing. Direct them to use these steps when washing their hands:  Run their hands under the water. Lather their hands with soap and rub them together for at least 20 seconds. Remind them to clean between their fingers and under their fingernails. Rinse the soap and dirt off under running water. Hand sanitizers should be at least 60% alcohol to be effective. They can be used if you are in an area where soap and clean water are unavailable or when traveling.  Put a dollop in the palm of their hand. Teach them to rub their hands together until the sanitizer is spread all over their hands. They should keep rubbing until it dries. Teach them to avoid touching their nose, eyes or mouth if their hands are not clean. The nose, eyes, and mouth are entry points for flu viruses to enter the body. This is important for your child to learn so that they don't spread the flu when they have it. They should:  Sneeze or cough into a tissue and then throw the tissue in the garbage. Sneeze or cough into their elbow, and not on their hands. This will reduce the likelihood that they will spread the flu to others via their hands. Wash their hands if they sneeze or cough on them. If your child has a fever or signs of the flu, keep them out of daycare or school to prevent spreading the virus to other children. Your child may be contagious from one day before getting sick to up to five or seven days after, or even longer if they still exhibit symptoms. Keeping your child home when they are sick can help keep the virus from spreading. You should also avoid sharing cups and eating utensils when children are ill to prevent spreading the flu.
A: Get your child a flu shot if they are over six months old. Teach your child to wash their hands. Have your child use a hand sanitizer when soap and water are unavailable. Instruct your child to cover when coughing or sneezing. Keep your child home when they exhibits signs of illness.

Q: This is usually a long white bar at the top of your browser window. You will type the web address into this bar (with the correct form), then hit ↵ Enter in order to visit the website. The search bar is usually marked by a search engine logo (Google, Bing, etc.) and a magnifying glass icon. You can still find the website if you type the address into the search bar – but it will take slightly longer. If the resulting page you go to after entering the address is a search engine, you may be typing into the search bar, or you may have spyware on your computer. Use the ← Backspace key to delete any other words that are already filling the address bar. If the bar is clear, you should see a blinking vertical line: this shows you where the words you type will appear.
A: Find the address bar. Make sure you are not typing into the search bar. Click the white space inside the address bar.

Q: Strong-minded girls are used to being in control, and they can appreciate when a guy takes charge. Go right up and talk to her, let her know that you're interested. She might be guarded at first, but she'll mostly likely be impressed by your directness. Don't be too forceful or demanding. This could give her the wrong idea about your intentions. You don't have to be a "bad boy" to display confidence in yourself. Stay relaxed and comfortable in any situation. Be assertive; use a firm, clear voice, and speak your mind. She's probably used to being the most confident person in the room. Stand out and show her that you're just as sure of yourself.  Assertiveness is the key, not aggression. Come on too strong and you risk looking like a jerk. Let your personality speak for itself. There's no need to brag, but don't downplay yourself or be unnecessarily modest. Take pride in yourself and own it. Loosen up. It's more impressive to people if you can handle mistakes and awkward moments gracefully. If she values her individuality, she'll also be able to recognize yours. Don't mindlessly follow trends or conform to what others are doing hoping it will get you noticed. Instead, be up front about your interests and beliefs and make it clear that you're someone worth knowing. Find things that the two of you have in common, no matter how small. You don't have to dress the same or have the same favorite band, but the more she can relate to you, the more comfortable she'll be around you. Finding things you have in common can be as broad and impassioned as political beliefs or as casual as your favorite breakfast cereal. Take this opportunity to get to know more about her, and as you do, you'll find that you have more things you connect with. While it's great to be direct, assertive and up front, leave a little for her to wonder about. She'll want to know more about you if you keep her guessing, and you'll come off as a more complex person. This could be the lead-in you need for your next conversation or date.  Hold a little back in conversation. Don't be too eager or talk about yourself too much. Let her imagination do some work in figuring you out. Don't complain. Quiet dignity is an undeniable trait in anyone. There's no need to lay it on too thick. She'll know if you're boasting or trying to seem more appealing to her, and talking yourself up too much can be annoying.  Confidence and assertiveness are qualities that anyone can develop, not stand-ins for your innate personality. If you get too wrapped up in trying to impress her, you'll lose sight of yourself. Trust her enough to let her make up her own mind about what she wants.
A:
Make the first move. Exude confidence. Be your own person. Relate to her. Be a little bit mysterious. Don't try too hard.
