Question:
1. Describe the expected pattern of children and young people’s development from birth to 19 years , to include:

At this stage most girls are taller than boys and the young people will be growing stronger.
At 16-19 years.
Young people are considered as adult, although many girls may be physically matured at this stage, the boys will continue to...
