The health of children growing up in migrant families is shaped under the influence of multiple factors. In this context, not only the child's biological status, but also the family environment, psychological closeness, parental supervision, nutritional quality, immunization regularity, and living conditions play a crucial role. In some cases, prolonged parental migration can leave a significant mark on a child's mental state, manifesting as decreased appetite, sleep disturbances, social withdrawal, anxiety, irritability, frequent illnesses, or difficulties in adapting to preschool education. Therefore, children from migrant families require a comprehensive assessment rather than a routine medical examination.
