>Dear Magda, I think the growth charts are appropriate to use for one child
over time.  You get an overall picture of the "groove" the child  is in and
an upward trend in the same groove indicates appropriate growth for this
child.<

ok, Pat, I am willing to be persuaded -- what literature do you have to
support this?  I have been looking for the literature which supports this
practice and not finding it.  I am perfectly willing to believe I have not
looked in all the right places, but would love to see it.
