It's Backpack Safety Time
Date:8/17/2009

k their backpacks properly, and make sure children never carry more than 10 percent of their body weight. For example, a child who weighs 100 pounds shouldn't carry a backpack heavier than 10 pounds, and a 50-pound child shouldn't carry more than 5 pounds.

Parents should ask their children to report any pain or other problems resulting from carrying a backpack. To find a doctor of chiropractic near you, visit MCA's Web site at www.mnchiro.com.
