All content is the property of The Nemours Foundation (Nemours Children’s Health) and protected by copyright. The following guidelines apply to all KidsHealth websites, including KidsHealth.org, TeensHealth.org, and KidsHealth in the Classroom.

Reprinting KidsHealth Content

Organizations may reprint articles for use offline (e.g., handouts) provided all guidelines are met:

1. Printer-friendly version: Any printed use of the KidsHealth content must be made available using the "printer-friendly" version of the article which includes the required mark, URL, copyright, and disclaimer. 

2. Original content: The content may only be used in its entirety. We do not permit editing of the education. For use with space restrictions, we permit the use of the article description including a link to the full article with attribution. 

For example: Asthma makes it hard to breathe. But with treatment, the condition can be managed so that kids can still do the things they love. Learn all about asthma on Nemours KidsHealth® at /en/parents/asthma-basics.html.
