Factors such as: Children are not fully immunized, children with anemia, low birth weight < 2500 grams, living in low-income families, living in families with more than 2 children have a higher risk of stunting malnutrition than those who are fully vaccinated, without anemic, have birth weight ≥ 2500 grams, high family income, number of children in the family ≤ 2.
