Wow, I may be here for many years yet...

Key to long life may be mom's age at birth

MSNBC reporting (from Reuters):



Key to long life may be mom's age at birth

Children born to women younger than 25 live longer, researchers report

NEW YORK - People are more likely to see their 100th birthday, research hints, if they were born to young mothers.
The age at which a mother gives birth has a major impact on how long her child will live, two researchers from the University of Chicago's Center on Aging told the Chicago Actuarial Association meeting this spring.
The chances of living to the ripe old age of 100 — and beyond — nearly double for a child born to a woman before her 25th birthday, Drs. Leonid Gavrilov and Natalia Gavrilova reported. The father's age is less important to longevity, according to their research.



Sorry liberals, guess that means you'll have to live with me for many years yet to come. (Of course, I type this now and then probably wind up getting into a car wreck or something similar completely wiping out any advantage given to me by my mothers youthful age when I was born).

Is it wrong of me to hope that people like the C.O.L. had mothers that were elderly at the time of their birth?

I guess momijiki would be really sad to hear that I would prefer to wish that the C.O.L. had never been born

Fascinating what a couple of tons of steel will do to negate a young birth mother.

My Mother was 23 when I was born, so another bane to liberals!

Terf, I actually don't care either way, but you asked if it was wrong and as far as I can tell, the man is just really annoying, so why load yourself up with the negative vibe? I'd just rather not see you send out that kind of negative energy that can come back at you.

(I need some kind of hippy guru groove icon to slot in here )
