Pregenent women cause aggression in children.

Summary:

Elizabeth Walling is mainly stating the problem with pregnant women smoking and having the affect of aggressiveness in children that most of us don’t pay attention to. She defines that aggressiveness of the child with quickness in biting, kicking, bullying and hitting. She gives the statistics of the women with antisocial behavior and smoking more than 10 cigarettes a day which is 67% and those who smokes less than 10 or 0 cigarettes a day which is 16%. She also tells us that families with higher income than $40,000 has 8% chance of having aggressive children and with lower than $40,000 has 5 times more risk of having aggressive children. She says that if the mother has a history of antisocial behavior and income lower than $40,000 then perhaps they are the main reason for the aggression in children. She says child aggression is just one more negative affect to add on the list of reasons why women shouldn’t smoke during pregnancy among prematurity, respiratory problems, low birth weight, etc.

Personal response:

I think the author is strongly trying to get the message out for the women who smoke during their pregnancy and I completely agree with her. I can see that if you prefer not to spend time with other people you might be shy or you don’t like to be other people, or you are just don’t know how to communicate and having lower income than $40,000 might means your life is not like you wanted. It creates roughness and loneliness in life. You feel like you have no future may be, but that doesn’t mean you should smoke; in particular when you are pregnant. I don’t understand why women smokes when they are pregnant knowing how it has negative effect on their children. Do they just not care or do they think that my child will be fine?

How to quit smoking with Hypnotherapy.

Summary:

The author is stating his viewers about the statistic of the male and female smoking in United States and about the chemicals that cigarette have, which is 4000 according to World Health Organization. Then the author states about how adductive the smoking is to the smokers and how it affects the people surrounded by the smokers.

The author says that people has benefited by hypnotherapy. He also says that quitting smoking also has positive impact on economy.

Personal Response:

I agree with the authors about hypnotherapy because it is matter of mind. If we think about how we make our decisions and choose one thing over another thing; it all depends on how we think. We choose to do what we like. Smoking is concept some people like and are addicted to it. I’m sure many smokers knows about the diseases that they can get by smoking, but may be they don’t know enough or exactly how tobacco effects them and people around them. Therefore I think hypnotherapy is one of the good way we can let the smokers know about the negative side of smoking in depth and try to help them quit smoking. After all it is the matter of mind, so even if we show them the negative sides at the end it is up to smokers.

Personal Response:

I think this article is very good and effective. Our author is a natural health writer and personally eliminated many chemicals from her own body. If people who are in habit of smoking read this article there is a good chance they might try to quit smoking. People who smoke could be part of those more than one out of five people who dies because of cigarettes, therefore they should think about not participating in that number and stop smoking and help this country decrease the number of deaths because of cigarettes.
