How many children did she want to have?
Unlike most of my friends I grew up in a big, noisy, happy family so naturally, when I got married, I wanted to have lots of children. The trouble was that my husband and I were not wealthy. In fact we were quite poor so it came as an awful shock when I had triplets. Everyone in the family was very supportive of course and the babies were absolutely adorable, but it was not easy. Small children are extremely active and three little girls running around the house made me feel nervous because I was afraid they might hurt themselves. There were funny moments of course and we were both extremely thankful that our children were happy, healthy, and such good friends for one another. In the end, the money was not important!

The traditional American family consisting of a husband, wife and children is becoming less and less frequent. More people who are illegally married are living together. More and more children are being raised in single-parent families, by both poor women and by women who are professionally employed. Others postpone marriage and childbirth and as a consequence bear fewer children than women who marry earlier. Among the educated more and more couples are deciding to have fewer and fewer children. An exception to this trend occurs among blacks, Hispanics and among the very poor. In 1990 the size of the average American family was 3.2 individuals.

What is it compulsory for children?
It is compulsory for children to have an education, but you may find it surprising that the teaching doesn’t always have to take place in the school building. As long as they have the necessary paper qualifications, parents themselves can teach their children at home. They may make the decision to do this because they are unhappy with a particular school, or because they feel that they have more knowledge of their own child’s needs than teachers at school. However, there may be critics of parents who make this choice because some people feel that children who are taught at home find it difficult to mix socially with young people of their own age. However, supporters of the idea disagree with this. They think it is a better way of teaching children what is really important.

No one can seriously pretend to remain unaffected by advertisements.
It is impossible to close your eyes to the pressing offers to buy this or that thing that fill our streets, newspapers and TV programmes. No matter how hard we resist, the advertisements get into our minds and stay there. Though they seem so varied, they have one thing in common: they make strong appeal to our emotions.

Research has shown that when they were children, many successful sportspeople were more adventurous than their friends. Why is it so? It seems that some children have very little understanding of the potential risks of doing activities like climbing trees or jumping from heights. They have such faith in their own ability that even when they do make some kind of miscalculation which results in a fall or injury, they do not change their behaviour. Such children continue to ignore or disobey adults who tell them not to do dangerous things and their parents’ disapproval does not seem to make any difference to them. While some insecure children may panic when faced with the possibility of danger, others seem to ignore it and appear to be fearless. These may be the ones who go on to be the sportspeople of tomorrow!

A recent report in Sport and Science magazine explains how sports training programmes need to be designed to fit the needs of individual athletes. Factors such as age, lifestyle and even language background are all important. The most successful training programmes are planned specifically for each individual athlete. Decisions about diet and even how much sleep they need can really affect their chances of success.
