Parenthood linked to longer life: study [in Sweden]
Paris
(AFP) - Parents, take courage. If you survive the sleep deprivation,
toddler tantrums and teenage angst, you may be rewarded with a longer
life than your childless peers, researchers said Tuesday.
Fathers
gained more in life expectancy than mothers, a team wrote in the
Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health -- and particularly in
older age.
"By
the age of 60, the difference in life expectancy... may be as much as
two years" between people with, and those without, children, they
concluded.
Researchers
tracked the lifespan of men and women born between 1911 and 1925 and
living in Sweden -- more than 1.4 million people in total.
