Whether it's mild, moderate or severe, all levels of asthma need to be taken seriously. Children are constantly exposed to triggers and can catch infections that may cause serious respiratory symptoms, which is why asthma needs to be managed on a daily basis.
To make matters worse, there are likely many, many more with asthma that don't know it...I would guess about it is more like 35-40% of children (and 20% of adults) that have it.
