Answer 1

i thought it was a liver problem, not a mental problem. i would ask the doctor, i believe you have been mis-informed.

Answer 2

Darlin, my daughter was also born jaundice 30 yrs ago. Today, she is president of Phi Theta Kappa (Honor Society). Maybe there are different degrees of jaundice, but I am telling you that my daughter is not in any way effected by Jaundice at birth. Do some more research. It could be something else. Good Luck.

Answer 3

My question is, did she get the shots that they are forcing parents to give their children now adays? They know that they can slow a child's ability to learn...i don't think the jaundice alone would cause it...I also think the vitamin K shots they force on kids could possibly cause the jaundice...
