Parent Screen (A Measurement System Used By Parents For Their Children)

Take 6 simple measurements and learn about your child’s personality.

Parent Screen is a modification of the Page Measurement System to determine the activity of one gland, the posterior pituitary gland. This gland is not treated in modern medicine and the deficiency is seldom detected.

This deficiency is often associated with depression and manic depression in children. It is often present in some diabetic conditions and a cause of acne in teenagers. Many kids who are diagnosed with clinical depression only or are classified as ADD or ADHD are really bipolar. This diagnostic system helps make the differential diagnosis.

In adults deficiency of the posterior pituitary gland can cause all of the above plus obesity, high blood pressure, periodontal disease, and increased susceptibility to tooth decay.

The measurements ( on the arms and legs) can be done in about 10 minutes and your child’s values are marked on a chart and you can see how much deviation there is from the norm. Mild deviations can cause depression, hypomania, and excessive risk taking. More severe deviations cause more severe problems such as classic manic depression. This test is 95%-98% accurate.

The Parent Screen Kit costs just $10 plus $2.00 postage and handling.

It is our opinion that Parent Screen should be added to the Teen Screen Program currently used in communities and schools for teenagers to detect depression.
