26、Section B46 Having Kids Makes You Happy?A)When I was growing up, our former neighbors, whom well call the Sloans, were the only couple on the block without kids. It wasnt that they couldnt have children; according to Mr. Sloan, they just chose not to. All the other parents, including mine, thought i

27、t was oddeven tragic. So any bad luck that happened to the Sloansthe egging of their house one Halloween; the landslide(山崩)that sent their pool careering to the street belowwas somehow attributed to that fateful decision theyd made so many years before. “Well,“ the other adults would say, “you know

28、they never did have kids.“ Each time I visited the Sloans, Id search for signs of insanity, misery or even regret in their super clean home, yet I never seemed to find any. From what I could tell, the Sloans were happy, maybe even happier than my parents, despite the fact that they were childless.B)

29、My impressions may have been swayed by the fact that their candy dish was always full, but several studies now show that the Sloans could well have been more satisfied than most of the traditional families around them. In Daniel Gilberts 2006 book Stumbling on Happiness, the Harvard professor of psy

30、chology looks at several studies and concludes that marital satisfaction decreases dramatically after the birth of the first childand increases only when the last child has left home. He also finds out that parents are happier grocery shopping and even sleeping than spending time with their kids. Ot

31、her data cited by 2008s Gross National Happiness author, Arthur C. Brooks, finds that parents are about 7 percentage points less likely to report being happy than the childless.C)The most recent comprehensive study on the emotional state of those with kids shows us that the term “bundle of joy“ may

32、not be the most accurate way to describe our offspring. “Parents experience lower levels of emotional well-being, less frequent positive emotions and more frequent negative emotions than their childless peers,“ says Florida State Universitys Robin Simon. “In fact, no group of parentsmarried, single,

33、 step or even empty nestreported significantly greater emotional well-being than people who never had children. Its such an unexpected finding because we have these cultural beliefs that children are the key to happiness and a healthy life, and theyre not.“D)Simon received plenty of hate mail in res

34、ponse to her research, which isnt surprising. Her findings shake the very foundation of what weve been raised to believe is true. In a recent Newsweek Poll, 50 percent of Americans said that adding new children to the family tends to increase happiness levels. Only one in six(16 percent)said that ad

35、ding new children had a negative effect on the parents happiness. But which parent is willing to admit that the greatest gift life has to offer has in fact made his or her life less enjoyable?E)Parents may openly complain their lack of sleep, busy schedules and difficulty in dealing with their bad-t

36、empered teens, but rarely will they cop to feeling depressed due to the everyday rigors of child rearing. “If you admit that kids and parenthood arent making you happy, its basically blasphemy(亵渎),“ says Jen Singer, a stay-at-home mother of two from New Jersey who runs the popular parenting blog Mom

37、maS. “From baby-cream commercials that make motherhood look happy and well rested, to commercials for Disney World where youre supposed to feel like a kid because youre there with your kids, weve made parenthood out to be one extremely happy moment after another, and its disappointing when you find

38、out its not.“F)Is it possible that American parents have always been this disillusioned? Anecdotal(轶事的)evidence says no. In pre-industrial America, parents certainly loved their children, but their offspring also served a purposeto work the farm, contribute to the household. Children were a necessit

39、y. Today, we have kids more for emotional reasons, but an increasingly complicated work and social environment has made finding satisfaction far more difficult. A key study by University of Wisconsin-Madisons Sara McLanahan and Julia Adams, conducted some 20 years ago, found that parenthood was perc

40、eived as significantly more stressful in the 1970s than in the 1950s; the researchers attribute part of that change to major shifts in employment patterns. The majority of American parents now work outside the home, have less support from extended family and face a worsening education and health-car

41、e system, so raising children has not only become more complicatedit has become more expensive. Today the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that it costs anywhere from $134,370 to $237,520 to raise a child from birth to the age of 17and thats not counting school or college tuition. No wonder

42、parents are feeling a little blue.G)Societal ills aside, perhaps we also expect too much from the promise of parenting. The National Marriage Projects 2006 “State of Our Unions“ report says that parents have significantly lower marital satisfaction than nonparents because they experienced more singl

43、e and child-free years than previous generations. Twenty-five years ago, women married around the age of 20, and men at 23. Today both sexes are marrying four to five years later. This means the experience of raising kids is now competing with highs in a parents past, like career wins or a carefree

44、social life. Sending bad-tempered kids to school or dashing to work with spit-up on your favorite sweater doesnt turn out to be romantic.H)For the childless, all this research must certainly feel redeeming(弥补的). As for those of us with kids, well, the news isnt all bad. Parents still report feeling

45、a greater sense of purpose and meaning in their lives than those whove never had kids. And there are other rewarding aspects of parenting that are impossible to quantify. For example, I never thought it possible to love someone as deeply as I love my son. As for the Sloans, its hard to say whether t

46、hey had a less meaningful existence than my parents, or if my parents were 7 percent less happy than the Sloans. Perhaps it just comes down to how you see the candy dishhalf empty or half full. Or at least as a parent, thats what Ill keep telling myself.47 Now highs in a parents past are being fough

47、t by the experience of raising kids.48 Because of insufficient sleep, busy schedules and difficulty in rearing their bad-tempered teens, parents may complain publicly.49 Besides societal ills that lower parents satisfaction, the promise of parenting is also too much expected.50 Our cultural beliefs

48、are that having kids makes parents happy.51 The Sloans were childless because they decided not to have a child.52 A professor believes that after the last child has left home, parents tend to be happier.53 Despite the low happiness level, compared with the childless, parents feel a greater sense of

49、purpose and meaning in their lives.54 Parenthood became more stressful in the 1970s partly due to changes in employment patterns.55 The author expects to find signs showing the Sloans were miserable in their home.56 According to the Newsweek Poll, half Americans agreed adding a child has a positive effect on happiness levels.Section C56 Once the hard decisions have been made about how to treat a patients cancer, d
