baby giants jersey, Some of my readers may remember a song \"Born to be Wild\" which we used to belt out at parties a very long time ago. I could go off and Google who used to sing it and when, but I want to stick to the subject of this post. It seems some of us are born worriers. \"Born to be Anxious\". Your mothers also perhaps used to say things like \"Paul is not good at Math\"; \"Paul always gets upset when.....\", etc. And because your Mum said it, baby giants jersey you knew it must be true. And while I don\'t remember my Mum actually saying this, another thing they could say was \"Paul is a born worrier\".
I came across an article in the weekend magazine of The Courier Mail (Saturday 24 April 2010) by Robin Marantz Henig entitled born worriers. In it he discusses the work (begun 1989) of Professor Jerome Kagan of Harvard University.
He decided to submit babies to \'worrying\' experiences (unfamiliar happenings such as new sounds or voices or toys or smells). The first 18 babies showed no special reaction, but Baby 19 got really agitated. She showed it by \"flailing her legs, arching her back and crying.\" When baby 19 was 15 she described her struggles with anxiety: \"... a horrible dread at the pit of my stomach.... a sense of the insecurity of life.\"
At school she had few extra-curricular activities \"but likes writing and playing the violin\". The interviewer asked her what she worried about. \"When I don\'t know quite what to do and it\'s really frustrating and I feel really uncomfortable, especially if other people round me know what they\'re doing. I\'m always thinking, should I go here? Should I go there? Am I in someone\'s way?... I worry about things like getting projects done... I think, will I get it done? How am I going to do it?... If I\'m going to be in a big crowd, baby giants jersey it makes me nervous about what I\'m going to do and say and about what other people are going to do and say.\"
Kagan had many other such children who displayed the worried signs as infants and who would grow up to be highly anxious adolescents and adults.
Henig goes on to say that in this \"Age of baby giants jersey Anxiety\" most people can begin to feel overwrought by many of the issues such as stagnant retirement funds and global warming, but some people, no matter how strong their stock portfolios or how healthy their children, are always preparing for doom.
Two further studies at Harvard and the University of Maryland have reached similar conclusions: babies differ according to their temperament; 15 to 20 per cent of them will react strongly to novel people or situations and these strongly reactive babies are more likely to grow up to be anxious.
