Best Answer

It is difficult to assign a precise date to any practice of medicine, but children were valued very little in medieval times and were neglected and abused for hundreds of years prior to the Industrial Revolution. It can safely be said that pediatricians were not popular, but it's difficult to find a date where the practice commenced.
