Have Children - Live Longer



     I heard on the radio that a  recent study shows that - Being a parent (whether by birth or adoption) decreases a woman’s risk of premature death.  
     A small surprise considering how tired and worn we moms often feel.    (Does it just seem longer sometimes?)
     How much do you think this is because of behavior changes? 
     For instance, I gave up rafting down the American River when I became a mom.  I was now too valuable to a very important person to take unnecessary risks, although slight.
