Health News Digest: What Lurks in the Dark

We bring the latest in health news. On the back of the Larry Nassar scandal, we revisit how to talk to kids about who can touch whom, where and when, with consultant developmental paediatrician Dr Rajini Sarvananthan. We also explore how sleepless children wear out parents and find solutions for bedwetting and bladder control with consultant urologist Dr George Lee, especially if students are not allowed to use the toilet during class.
