Answer:
If you have to get the chicken pox...try to get them while you are young. The older you are the greater the risk. also, try not to itch the pox because they can leave unsightly, and damaging scars. If you are able to moderate your fever, avoid scratching, and contract the disease in childhood you should experience no hardship outside of the disease running it's natural course. Once you have chicken pox you can never get them again (however it does leave you suseptable to Shingles...but that's a different story). As an additional side note; vaccinations now help many to never contract the pox to begin with.
