Children walking barefoot are a health threat. It is partially modifiable because if adequate knowledge from the health personnel is given, it can lead the family to be aware of the existing problem, which in turn will take immediate action. If the family is given adequate knowledge, there will be lesser risks for the children to acquire diseases from the outside environment without selfprotection. The family does not perceive this as a health problem.
