Children are supposed to lead active lifestyles. They're constantly growing and changing, evolving into new individuals, and as such, it's not normal for them to be constantly tired and unenthusiastic about life. Paleness and lethargic behavior could be signs of childhood cancer, but they can also be signs of other issues. If a child is too lethargic to enjoy their childhood, some kind of medical treatment might be necessary.

Lethargy might be caused by the body fighting cancer or by any number of physical illnesses that cause fatigue and respiratory issues. This symptom will appear with severe cases of childhood depression and other mental illnesses. If parents suspect something might be wrong with their child's body, the best thing theycan do is take them to a doctor who can evaluate the situation accurately.
