Children's failure to grow properly is generally caused by malnutrition, irregular作息 (daily routines), and genetic factors.
1. Malnutrition: Picky eating, selective diet, or abnormal gastrointestinal function may lead to deficiencies in calcium, vitamins, proteins, and other nutrients, resulting in poor bone development.
2. Irregular作息 (daily routines): Insufficient sleep duration or poor sleep quality can also impair bone development and slow down growth velocity.
Genetics: When parents are short in stature, their children's height and overall growth may also be affected.
