Parenting While Maintaining Individual Health




There is no doubt that creating and nurturing a life is one of the most valuable things that an individual can do with their time, and it is something which continues the essential cycle of life and existence. However, it is also an exceptionally difficult activity, and requires the considered devotion of both time and finance in order to raise a child successfully. With this in mind, it soon becomes increasingly difficult for new parents to maintain their own health and well being while caring for an infant, which can cause serious consequences in their short and long term futures.

Interestingly, a recent study conducted by the Paediatrics journal revealed that mothers rather than fathers are baring the physical brunt of child care, although both receive reduced levels of nutrition and exercise when compared to their childless contemporaries. The detailed study, which followed an approximate 1500 high school students into adulthood, revealed that the women who became parents subsequently consumed over 400 calories more per day than childless women of the same age and demographic.

A Question of Time

The primary issue seems to revolve around time, both in terms of mothers not being able to prepare a health conscious meal and also being unable to exercise accordingly. This creates a distinct imbalance with regards to the volume of calories consumed and the levels of subsequent physical activity, and leads to the individual becoming increasingly vulnerable to various health issues such as obesity. Although it may be argued that this is part of the personal sacrifice required to raise an infant child, it benefits nobody if the mother falls ill or suffers health issues as a consequence.

Of course, when individuals are rushed and focusing on the well being of their child, it is all to easy to prepare a quick meal that is high in fat and low in protein and the necessary carbohydrates. Ready meals are a perfect example of food that can be prepared and delivered quickly, but that ultimately does not deliver any of the dietary requirements needed for a healthy lifestyle. Perhaps this course of events is in some ways unavoidable given the birth of a new child, but the issue becomes more complicated when you consider that fathers involved in the study did not experience anything like the contrast in lifestyles with their childless peers.

Primary Carers Feeling the Strain

Although it is fair to state that the majority of primary carers in the US are mothers, this does not explain the vast differences that exist in lifestyle between them and their male partners. What the study tends to suggest is that there are an increasing number of mothers who are feeling the strain of being a primary carer to their children, and who perhaps require further assistance from their husbands or an outside source. This kind of social issue needs to be addressed swiftly, otherwise an epidemic could ensue and leave a generation of unhealthy parents unable to raise their children adequately.

Given the rising level of obesity in the US, society can ill afford to see even more citizens become vulnerable to its perils through the significant pressures of parenthood. In order to tackle this issue, there perhaps needs to be a change in the perception of parenting roles in contemporary society, with the separate entities of career and child raising considered as equal in terms of their impact. This would force mothers and fathers to create a far more equal distribution of duties when at home together, and ease the pressure on mothers as the primary carers within their household.

Sharing the Burdens of Parenthood

This spirit of cooperation is well suited within a modern environment, and supports the contemporary view that parenting is as demanding and taxing a role as any equivalent career. Therefore, if both parents are considered to have a equilibrium with regards to their day jobs, then the foundations are laid for fathers to share the physical and mental burdens of parenthood in their free time. This would surely see an improvement in the health of contemporary mothers, and cultivate a crucial balance between each parents lifestyle.

Many modern issues in society are the consequence of an outdated point of view, and individuals need to challenge these perspectives in order to effect corporeal change. Parenting is a primary example where traditional and stereotypical views are prevalent, and although many consider them harmless there is a clear indication that they are having a debilitating effect on the health of the modern mother. The answer is for working fathers to respond to these issues, and assume responsibility for improving the existence of their respective partners and children.

  1. Hi, Merely returned here to advise you about Mobile Monopoly. Its a great system and definately will make you money, especially since you own an online site. Take a glance at the video, the strategy is all about using Mobile Advertising which can be completely new and an unexposed marketplace where you can make thousands by doing extremely little work. I assure you that after you watch their short video its going to change you and will also start causing you to think.

  2. If the results of the elections run by the party in power can rationally be assumed to be at least in large part the product of fraud; what does that say about a) the legitimacy of a goverment so installed and statutes they pass, and b) the entire concept of consent of the governed?

  3. This post had me laughing out loud, Pune! Before joining the ASPCA I wrote the majority of animal bios for my shelter website. Friday evening was usually a writing marathon as I wanted everyone to have a bright & shiny story for a busy Saturday. My fingers were flying, giddy when a phrase came out just right. Fast forward to the next day and a dedicated website follower called to point out an embarrassing typo in a dog story, the ideal hoe for this devilishly handsome guy will be active and relish a rousing game of catch-me-if-you-can. Yikes not quite the image I was going for. I fixed that typo quick, had a good laugh with our observant reader, and got that dog adopted!

  4. I did sniff 12th place last week until the guy in 13th place had something like a 15 RBI night (Jeff Kent had 4, that Mark Reynolds guy had 4 or 5, and I own Adam LaRoche thats for nothing Stephen M.!) and jumped to 8th place overnight.

  5. I like Ron Paul. I think the only way to unseat the RepubliRats is to unite all other independents and pull some from both parties to join us then well give them a fair fight.

  6. Stop trying to find confirmation from some important person on tv, and use your head. Once you unravel their layers of the onion its real easy to see whos spinning you a lie.

  9. Obama is no more than a figure head. He is not a president for the people. He is working for people like Soros. He is making people like Al Gore rich on green companies. While the poor and the middle class suffermore and more each day.

  17. I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

  18. This site can be a stroll-through for all of the information you wished about this and didn’t know who to ask. Glimpse right here, and you’ll positively discover it.

  19. Here is another person wanting to sell us a truck that was a fake BEWARE its a nice 2001 Black Ford F-150 Super Crew Cab Harley Davidson Edition for $4800.00 with 28,000 miles on it from the Naples, FLorida Daiey Newspaper, the web site was called Southwest Florida Daily News. The sellers info is pamela-walker1@hotmail.com DO NOT OPEN THAT WEBSITE!!!! The seller and us talked about the truck and they said they wanted to go through the ebay Vehicle Buyer Protection for our safety and hers. She also sent us more pics of the truck. Said she got it in the divorce and needed money. Thank Goodness I saw this web site BEFORE falling for the scam because I asked for her Ebay ID# and told her I couldnt find the truck or any info at all pertaining to the truck on Ebay and I received no response. I pulled up her website again to email her again to see if she got my email and the second I clicked on her email address my brand new computer starting going off with alerts everywhere..my hard drive, my files, everything was being attacked from a virus they put on the email. Basically I think after they figured out I wasnt falling for their scam they put a virus on the email address. Thankfully my awesome vires protection stopped all of the attacks. I had 21 virus in less than 5 seconds. I took in my computer and they told me they all got stopped by my protection. Soooo lesson to be learnedINVESTIGATE ANY AND ALL TRANSACTIONS AND IF ITS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE THEN IT IS Good Luck everyone and thanks for sharing your stories on here or I would of been a victom also.

  20. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

  21. Virginia, your comments are much appreciated. But please show a little more restraint before suggesting that our concerns are childish or born of sour grapes. My only issue here is that a pirate convention should focus on catering to pirate related interests which this guest list is clearly not.

  22. I cant wait to get home to see the calendar and the surprise.A beautiful day for a ride on a fat tired one speed big seated bike. Off I go.

  23. We only SAW Juliet die once, in LA_X. She didnt die at the end of The Incident anymore than Jack, Kate, or Sawyer. She was alive at the on-island beginning of LA_X in the rubble of the Swan implosion. I would not characterize her death in Sawyers arms as a re-death. Sorry, I really dont mean to be splitting hairs this late in the game.

  24. A note regarding the use of non-serif fonts for on-screen, and serif fonts for printed text. I work in technical publications, including Web stuff, and a lot of my friends and acquaintences are Web designers, so this is not a new conversation for me.

  25. This is the blog that I am looking for. The information I get were really helpful for my research. Thanks for posting a blog like this.

  26. The question is, If MIB cannot kill candidates, the reason he was on the island so long with MIB is because all those who KNEW Jacob as something other than an Island Deity, and maybe knew of his faults, have been long gone, so who now will kill him? Especially when everyone brought to the island believes he is someone to be worshiped.

But I have at least read Dune (you can hold out the carrot that he doesnt have to read any further in the series. *grin*.

  31. If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.

  32. Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

  33. Your blog really makes sense. I was searching on Google and i have seen your blog there. I got the information I need out of your blog.

  36. Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.
