Language Barriers: Many families speak a different language than the healthcare provider, leading to misunderstandings.
Health Literacy: Parents may have varying levels of understanding about medical terms and procedures.
Emotional Stress: The stress of having a sick child can impair a parent's ability to process information.
Age of the Child: Younger children may not be able to articulate their symptoms or concerns effectively.
