satu aspek yg perlu dilihat dalam memilih pasangan ialah keturunan. Selepas pemilihan ugama, faktor2 lain perlu
juga dilihat walaupun tidak semestinya diberi keutamaan sepenuhnya.
Apabila seseorang itu dibesarkan dlm keluarga yg bercerai berai maka terdapat elemen kurang stabil pada beliau. Kestabilan emosi perlu diselidik. Ada satu kes benar dimana seorang itu asyik bertukar kerja dlm waktu yg singkat walaupun syarikat2 tempat kerjanya adalah yg establish. Apabila diselidiki, ibubapanya bercerai berai. Saya telah menghadapi 2-4 kes yg berbentuk demikian. Perkahwinan yg dihadapinya juga begitu singkat apabila beliau tidak dapat mengawal perasaannya.
Cadangan mengaitkan kestabilan emosi diri dengan kestabilan rumahtangga ibubapa empunya diri tidak semestinya tepat tetapi jika ada pilihan, pilihlah mereka yg dari keluarga yg tidak bercerai berai.
Rencana dibawah mengaitkan kesihatan diumur matang dgn kebahagian diri semasa kecil.
Happy Childhood Is Key To A Healthy Adulthood
WELLINGTON, Dec 9 (Bernama) -- A study of New Zealanders
showed that children who experience a happy childhood, will lead a
healthy adulthood, China's Xinhua news agency cited a study as saying.
According to a report in the December issue of Archives of
Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, children who experience
psychological or social adversity may have lasting emotional, immune
and metabolic abnormalities that help explain why they develop more
age-related diseases in adulthood.
The report, cited by Xinhua, said that as the population ages,
age-related conditions such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes and
dementia are becoming more prevalent.
"Therefore, new ways of preventing these diseases and enhancing
the quality of longer lives were needed, said Andrea Danese, of King's
College in London.
With colleagues, she studied 1,037 members of the Dunedin
Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study, a long-term
investigation of children born in the southern New Zealand city between
April 1972 and March 1973.
Interventions targeting modifiable risk factors such as smoking,
inactivity and poor diet in adult life had only limited efficacy in
preventing age-related disease, the study reported.
Up to the age of 10, the children were assessed for exposure to
three adverse experiences: socioeconomic disadvantage, maltreatment and
social isolation.
At age 32, they were evaluated for the presence of three risks for
age-related diseases: depression, high inflammation levels (measured by
the blood marker C-reactive protein) and the clustering of metabolic
risk factors, including high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol
levels and being overweight.
Individuals who had experienced adverse events as children were at
higher risk of developing depression, high inflammation levels and the
clustering of metabolic risk factors at age 32.
The researchers estimated that 31.6 percent of the cases of
depression, 13 percent of the cases of elevated inflammation and 32.2
percent of cases with clustered metabolic risk factors could be
attributed to adverse childhood experiences.
The effects of adverse childhood experiences on age-related
disease risks in adulthood were independent of the influence of risk
factors such as family history, low birth weight or high childhood body
mass index, the researchers said.
In 2002, another study of the same cohort showed boys with a MAO-A
gene -- linked with aggression and activated by childhood abuse --were
10 times more likely to be violent criminals.
Terri Moffitt, also of King's College said in that study that the
gene variation seemed to be activated only by mistreatment in
childhood, but was found in a third of the men and young boys studied.
