Ubunzima babantwana bethu bekusoloko kukukhathazeka kubazali. Asithethi nje ngokutyeba kwabantwana okukhulayo, kodwa abazali abaninzi banexhala lokubabona bebhityile kwaye bengafikeleli kwipesenti yokukhula echanekileyo.
Ukuhlolwa kwabantwana kuhlala kuvavanya ukukhula kwabantwana bethu, ngaphandle kophononongo olupheleleyo lomzimba wakho, imisebenzi yemoto, ukukhula kwezivamvo zakho, imikhwa yakho kunye nakwimikhwa yakho ukuba bunjani ubunzima bomzimba wakho.
Akukho mfuneko yokulinda olu hlaziyo ukubala i-BMI yabantwana bethu, kukho ezinye iitafile ecaleni kolandelelwano lwemathematika oko kunokukunceda ukubala into oyifunayo. Ukuze senze njalo, sinokukunika ezi zikhokelo zilandelayo ezisebenzayo neziluncedo.
Uyibala njani i-BMI ebantwaneni?
Ukubala i-BMI kufuneka uyisebenzise ifomula yokwahlula ubunzima bomntwana (kwiKg) ngobude bakhe obuphindwe kabini (ngeemitha) kwaye olu balo lusebenza kuzo zombini ii-majors kunye nabancinci. Ngoko ke, ukuba sinomntwana oneminyaka emi-5 ubunzima be-20,3 kg kunye nobude be-105 cm, siya kwenza lo msebenzi ulandelayo:
- 20,3 Kg / (0,105 m x 0,105 m) apho sifumana i-18,4. Ekuboneni kokuqala kubonakala ngathi umntwana unobunzima obuqhelekileyo, kodwa ngokweetafile ezinikezelweyo, lo mntwana unzima kakhulu. Kungenxa yoko le nto kufuneka sazi amaxabiso athi iitafile ze-WHO zisinika zona.
Ukubala i-BMI kwiitafile ze-WHO
I-WHO ikwabonelela ngeetafile nge-BMI kwiwebhusayithi yayo (ngesiNgesi BMI) yabantwana ukusuka ekuzalweni ukuya kwiminyaka emi-5 ubudala. Itheyibhile nganye imele isiphumo esifuna ukusifumana ngokuxhomekeke nakwisini somntwana, ekubeni amakhwenkwe namantombazana abalinganisi ngokulinganayo.
Kwimeko edlulileyo kufuneka beka i-BMI efunyenwe ngaphakathi kwigrafu ecaleni kobudala bakho. Sibeka umnwe wethu ngasezantsi apho siphawula ubudala bakhe kwaye sikhuphukele kwinani esilifumeneyo (BMI: 18,4) sinokubona ukuba udlula umgca we-orange kwaye ngoko ukhuluphele.
Kwezi tshathi zokukhula sinako ukungena kwinqanaba lobunzima ezisetyenziselwa zombini abantwana kunye nolutsha. Kufuneka ukhethe itheyibhile ehambelana neminyaka yomntu ofuna ukufumana ipesenteji yakhe. Singabala ipesenti kwiitheyibhile ze I-WHO.
Ngale ndlela, ngokodidi lwenqanaba lobunzima, sifumana ukutyeba kancinci xa i-percentile ingaphantsi kwe-5; sikubunzima obusempilweni xa ipesenti yakho I-5 ingaphantsi kwe-85th percentile; ifunyenwe ukutyeba kakhulu xa ipesenti yakho iphakathi kwama-85 nama-95; kwaye sele iqwalaselwe ukutyeba kakhulu xa ipesenti yakho ilingana okanye ingaphezulu kwe-95.
Ezinye iingcebiso malunga nokutya kwakho
I-BMI ibalwa ngendlela efanayo kubantwana nakubantu abadala. Kodwa kufuneka kuqatshelwe ukuba iindlela ezisetyenziselwa ukutolika i-BMI zahluke ngokupheleleyo. Kungenxa yoko le nto i-percentiles ethile isetyenziswa ngokumalunga nobudala kunye nesondo, kwaye kungenxa yokuba inani lamafutha omzimba liyahluka ngokukhula. Nkqu nomthamo wamafutha omzimba ahlukile phakathi kwamakhwenkwe namantombazana.
Kule nto kuyacetyiswa ukuba ulandele indlela efanelekileyo yokutya kunye nemikhwa enempilo. Ukuba i-percentile ephezulu okanye ephantsi ifunyenwe kuphononongo lwabantwana, ingcali iya kubonelela ngokuqinisekileyo uthotho lweengcebiso zemfundo malunga nokutya kunye nokuzilolonga. Kufuneka siqinisekise ukuba umntwana unokuba nobunzima obusempilweni. Ukuba abantwana bakho abakwazi ukuziqhelanisa nokutya okunempilo, sinokukunika okuthile iingcebiso kunye namacebo okumelana nokutya okuchanekileyo. Ukuba into oyifunayo zezi izitshixo zokufundisa abantwana bakho indlela yokutya funda ngokuchanekileyo Oku kubhaliwe.
