They will absorb toxic materials into their bodies more readily than an adult. Their brain, lungs, and nervous system are still forming and thus are at risk. Young children have lowered body defenses. Their lower body weight puts them at high risk, because a given quantity of a toxic material will be more concentrated in their bodies. Young children may be impulsive, engage in thumb sucking and nail biting, have frequent hand-to-mouth contacts, and neither understand nor follow the necessary precautions.
