A member asked:
Are there any disease that particularly affect orphans?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: However, it depends on how you were raised. Children raised in orphanages, especially from very early ages, may have issues related to lack of bonding or stimulation which affects them. Others have issues depending on the number and quality of the people that raise them. However, many orphans do well and all the factors are not clear to explain differences. What are you concerned about?
