No, the sun is very dangerous and skin cancer rates keep increasing over the world.

UV RAYS.  Even if the sun isn't shining it's still out there and can cause skin cancer.

being black does not mean you are sun immune,you must use the sunscreen to avoid photodamage to the skin caused by ultra-violet rays..

Not during yours or your even your grandchildren's lifetime. So don't worry about it. Worship the sun since you are here to enjoy it - just wear sunscreen.

The Ozone screen most of the hamful UV (mostly UV-B) away from reaching the earth....\n\nTherefore, Ozone depletion will allow more harmful UV reaching the earth, and the harmful UV (UV-B) will cause skin cancer and other eye problems in human in prolong explosure.

At least one scientific study ( http://content.karger.com/ProdukteDB/produkte.asp?Aktion=ShowPDF&ProduktNr=224197&Ausgabe=227414&ArtikelNr=46495 ) shows that result. They exposed skin to UV rays and observed a rise in serotonin. "This is due to photoinhibition of enzymes converting serotonin to melatonin.", which means that the serotonin that would otherwise be converted to melatonin stays as serotonin. I think it would be best to read the article.

sunscreen doesn't STOP a suntan.  just sunburn if applied correctly.  you can even tan with an SPF of 45.  car glass will stop it, i think.

yes\n\nhot tubs\nHere are some things to consider about hot tubs and children: \n\nA hot tub is a body of water in which a child can drown. That has to be first and foremost on your list of concerns. Tubs should be covered when not in use, and provision made to keep small children away from open tubs. \nHot tubs are hot. Small children have much less ability to withstand heat stress than older children, adolescents and adults. Exercise great caution about putting young children - babies and toddlers - in a hot tub. I personally would advise you follow a rule that until kids are out of diapers, they are too small for the hot tub. \nWhich leads to the discussion of hygeine: diapered children are fundamentally dirty down there no matter how clean you think you keep them. Again, to me this is a good reason to keep little kids out of the tub. \nGerms like warm water. Proper chlorination of hot tubs is essential. Hot tub folliculitis is a specific rash caused by infection of the hair follicles of the skin with Pseudomonas, a particularly nasty bacterium. It appears most often in my experience in the areas covered by a tight-fitting bathing suit on a child who sat for a prolonged period in a hot tub.

Chlorine can cause major eye damage in it's concentrated form. However, in pool water chloring is highly diluted and will not burn your eyes. The american redcross gives tips on pool safety, and the only one regarding eye protection is to protect your eyes from UV sun exposure. Based upon this information I would say that the suns UV rays have a much greater potential for eye damage than diluted chlorine.

Yes it is an alcohol. Yes it's safe for kids. However, it does show up on breathalizers. :)

NO.Children's metabolisms are not ready for that kind of product in any way shape or form. They need their fats to power their minds and growth. it is for serious athlete's to use under supervision.\n\nCraig - Naturopath

Too many to list I think, and not being a doctor of chemist I wouldn't know - but I think there are some anti-depressants that may cause the skin to be UV sensitive as I seem to remember someone on various anti-nuts-o medications that effected their sensitivity to the sun.

yes it's the worst timing to be exposed to direct sunlight and it increases the chances of skin cancer

yes, and it sounds like sun poison..Have had it many times..It comes in different versions. Probably best just to keep him in for a few days and try some aloe vera on the bumps.
