“Mind your health as it has the highest value!” the elder people say… And for mother her child’s health is the greatest wealth! One of natural blessings, characteristic feature, due to which we percept information completely and in a variety of ways, is sense of hearing. It is one of the most important organs of human senses. When your child is growing healthy, you are looking forward to her chattering of the first words; but imagine mother’s anxiety, as they go forward and daughter, vice versa, becomes quieter and quieter… It is a great stroke. The child just cannot percept, hear the world around, reproduce and cooperate, as a healthy person.
