10 Ways to Help Yourself to a Better Sex Life

The physical changes that your body goes through as you age often mean that the intensity of youthful sex may give way to more subdued responses during middle and later life.

But those aren't the only changes you go through with age; you also develop increased confidence, better communication skills, and lessened inhibitions. This newly gained emotional maturity can actually help create a richer, more nuanced, and ultimately satisfying sexual experience.

You can realize the full potential of later-life sex by understanding the crucial physical and emotional elements that underlie satisfy...   Continue reading ››









More siblings mean poorer mental health for teens

  4 months ago (Wed, Jan 10, 2024 at 06:52 PM)

Mental health declines for teens when they have more siblings.

Study finds similar results in both China and the U.S.

Teens from larger families have poorer mental health than those with fewer siblings, according to a large analysis of children in the United States and China.

The details of the pattern vary depending on factors such as the spacing of sibling ages and the age of the siblings.

But the fact that the overall pattern was found in both countries is striking, said Doug Downey, lead author of the study and professor of sociology at The Ohio State University.

A study finds 56% of unmarried, low-income couples with children had positive co-parenting relationships.

Despite the many challenges they face, slightly more than half of unmarried low-income couples with children have positive co-parenting relationships, a new study found.

And those supportive relationships were linked to their children showing more empathy, less emotional insecurity and fewer behavior problems.

Parents who are good co-parents work together as a team, provide support to each other and back up each other’s parenting decisions, said Susan Yoon, lead author of the st...   Continue reading ››









Why Intelligent People Prefer to Socialize Less

There is a common stereotype that intelligent people are loners who prefer to spend their time alone. While this may be true for some intelligent people, it is not the case for all of them. However, there are a number of reasons why intelligent people may tend to socialize less than others.

1. They are more focused on their goals.

According to scientists, the best way to calm down a baby is to take them on a 5-minute walk.

After being held and taken for a 5-minute walk, all babies who participated in the study fell asleep.

The majority of parents have been frustrated by their babies’ excessive crying and refusal to sleep. According to recent research, holding them for five minutes and walking with them is the most effective method for calming them down. This evidence-based soothing method is detailed in a paper recently published in Current Biology.

After a breakup, people feel less in control. But don’t worry, it is only temporary.

The research examined how people’s feelings of control changed following separation, divorce, or the death of a spouse.

According to a recent investigation of individuals who experienced various kinds of relationship loss, these events were associated with different patterns of short- and long-term sense of control after the loss.

Researchers Find Ways to Help Teens Get More Sleep

  2 years ago (Wed, Oct 05, 2022 at 03:17 PM)

Adjusting to a new sleep schedule at the start of the school year can lead to disturbed rest, daytime fatigue and changes in mood and focus for teens.

Although they need eight to 10 hours of sleep per night to maintain physical health, emotional well-being and school performance, according to the National Sleep Foundation and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, most adolescents get less than eight, especially on school nights.

Study suggests watching TV with your child can help their cognitive development

Over the past 30 years, the number of television programs targeting infants has been increasing. Between 1997 and 2014, screen time doubled among children aged 0 to 2 years.

A new study, published in Frontiers in Psychology, has examined the impact passive screen use has on a young child's cognitive development. It found that screen exposure—whether that be from a TV or mobile device—can be beneficial, depending on the context in which it's viewed.

Research shows healthy communication after divorce should be all about the kids

  2 years ago (Tue, Sep 13, 2022 at 03:09 PM)

When it comes to keeping the lines of communication open after a divorce, West Virginia University researchers Jonathon Beckmeyer and Jessica Troilo say you can have far too much of a good thing.

Their study of 708 divorced parents of children under 18 shows that even innocuous chitchat between divorced co-parents can put children's well-being at risk. Simply put, "limit any communication to shared parenting issues," the researchers suggest.

Studies show children don't believe everything they are told

Children learn on their own through observation and experimentation. They also learn from what other people tell them, especially adults and authority figures like their parents and teachers. When children learn something surprising, they seek out additional information by asking questions or by testing claims. Prior research shows that whether children explore adults' surprising claims varies by age, with children over six years of age more likely to seek out additional information than four- and five-year-olds. However, there is limited research about why children seek information in respons...   Continue reading ››

Women achieving childbearing desires drives contraception use

Study finds more alignment in reproductive desires and behaviors

The increased use of contraception in many countries is not because more women at any moment want to delay pregnancy or have no further children. Instead, it is because contraception is helping more women achieve their childbearing goals.

This is the overwhelming conclusion from a study of national survey data from 59 low- and middle-income countries around the world.

Results showed that 85-90% of the change in contraception use is attributable to meeting the prevalent demand for reproductive control, versus only 10-15%...   Continue reading ››

The researchers were even able to predict the quality of social interactions between complete strangers by first “smelling” them with a device known as an electronic nose, or eNose.

Relationships are best between people of similar desirability, study finds

Research shows people of similar desirability are most likely to pair up, have long-lasting and successful relationships.

Everyone remembers those old high school movies where the ultra-nerdy teenage boy falls in love with a the most beautiful girl in the whole school. The movie begins with the girl not knowing anything about the geeky leading man that most wouldn’t consider a strong partner, but by the end, she’s fallen for him too. It’s a classic romantic movie formula.

However, new research from the University of Missouri suggests these relationships might be best left to the mo...   Continue reading ››

Deakin University researchers have mined Reddit posts and discovered that dads’ posting behaviours in the period surrounding their child’s birth can be a warning sign for depression.

One in five dads experience anxiety in the perinatal period – the time before and after their child’s birth. One in ten experience depression. However, support for fathers’ mental health in the perinatal period is limited.

Sitting in the dark room, in the middle of the night, he began sweating as if he ran five miles. The question which kept on coming in his mind was, “How did I end up here?”

He grew up in the church. He knows more Bible verses than anybody else. Growing up, he was considered as one of the spiritual young men who could take the next pastoral position in the church. Even as a young lad, some people used to come and ask him to pray for them.

IN FRONT OF KIDS?

Do you know what little children think when their parents fight in their presence?

As child psychology shows, little children blame themselves saying, “It is because of me that my parents’ are fighting. I am responsible for this.” I cannot even begin to count the negative impacts this very thinking brings into a child’s life. 









WANNA LOOK ATTRACTIVE TO MY HUBBY

A4P Guest: “I was not overweight before I got married. After I had my two kids, I gained more than 20 pounds and I am still struggling to lose but nothing seems to work. My major problem though is my embarrassment before my husband. I feel like he doesn’t like me anymore because of the extra pounds I put on especially around my belly. I feel so unattractive. I feel exposed whenever I think of sexual intimacy. My husband repeatedly told me that he doesn’t care. Does weight gain affect sexual intimacy?

Men Are Now More Likely to Be Single Than Women

  3 years ago (Wed, Oct 06, 2021 at 09:25 AM)

Almost a third of adult single men live with a parent. Single men are much more likely to be unemployed, financially fragile and to lack a college degree than those with a partner. They’re also likely to have lower median earnings; single men earned less in 2019 than in 1990, even adjusting for inflation. Single women, meanwhile, earn the same as they did 30 years ago, but those with partners have increased their earnings by 50%.

A4P: Hmm! Tell me more.

A4P Guest: My husband is treating me like dirt. If, for example, I say to my son (we have one four year old son) “Stop your video game now and you can play with your toys,” he will say, “Shut up! What do you know about raising kids?”

SEXLESS MARRIAGES

The Bible clearly says these to all husbands and wives:

“The husband must fulfill his duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband. The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does; and likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. ” 1 Corinthians 7:3-5

A4P Guest: Well, I’m married and have two little ones. My husband and I are not getting along. Argument is something that marks our marriage. We cannot hold a conversation for more than a minute without arguing and fighting.

For a happy marriage, from the many things that are mentioned by many authors, this stands tall for me:

The husband needs to know that he has to be a psychologist, a therapist, a psychiatrist, a social worker, a pastor, a general internist, a counselor, a geographer who knows direction without any GPS, an analyst of the world as well as local news, an editor and more.

That means, in short, he needs to be

How Can I change My Husband?

  3 years ago (Thu, Aug 05, 2021 at 11:03 AM)

Early on in my marriage, my first mission as a wife was to change my husband.

Yeap!

I first wanted to make him love reading books, other than the books he reads for his work and the Bible. I mean, think about it. I can’t live without reading books but I married a man who lives happily ever after without reading books. So, I set out to change him, to teach him how to fall asleep reading good spiritual books.

So, I read one good marriage book (I am not sure which one) and I told my husband how the author talked about husbands and how much he, my husband, could learn from the book...   Continue reading ››

He Won't Propose

They complain, "I thought he was waiting for the Valentine's Day but that day just passed; and I thought he would propose to me in the beginning of summer but that too passed. What should I need to do?"

I always ask:

"Why don't you propose to him?" :) Just kidding! - I wouldn't say that in a million years! What? A woman proposing to a man? Are you serious? Listen what the Bible says:

"My Husband Watches Movies"

A4P Guest: I came to the US a year ago from Ethiopia. My husband grew up here in the US. He came to Ethiopia to marry me. After I came to the US, life has been tough for me mainly because my husband only wants to watch movies. He works full-time but whenever he is home, he only enjoys watching movies. I want us to pray or read the Bible together. If I start talking about anything spiritual, he is not interested to listen. So, we now fight more than we love and spent time together in peace. I am very scared with my life. What do you advise me?

Objective power measured by income, for example, doesn't seem to play a big role, according to a new study in the "Journal of Social and Personal relationships" by the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and the University of Bamberg. Instead, how lovers perceive power dynamics in their relationship is most important for relationship satisfaction.

Wife: “Hun, do you want a cup of tea?”

Husband: Yes, I do.

Wife: “Babe, would you please take the trash out?”

Husband: “I will. Just give me a second.”


This is called talking directly to a man’s brain, or, speaking to him in a language he can understand.

On the other hand, if a wife decides to speak to her husband in “German,” she tricks her husband’s brain (very important point to note):

It is impossible to fight against porn alone.

Why?
You always lose!

You see, darkness loves secrecy, loneliness! And when you invite another person to join you in your fight against porn, it is like saying “Yes” to light to shine on the dark area of your life.

If you are in Christ, you desire to run away from darkness. And when darkness tries to make its abode in your soul, you partner with another believer so the darkness loses its power on you. 









WHY DO MARRIAGES FALL APART WHEN – – –

Why do marriages fall apart when a special need child comes to a family?

Many, many reasons but one of the major and common reasons is the fact that men and women are created differently.

I know; that reason again, right?

But it is true. Men and women are created equally but differently. When a special need child comes to a family, a father and a mother handle the situation differently and that difference creates stress, disagreement and conflict that can lead to a divorce.

My husband is my number one motivator to take care of myself because he compliments me. I mean after all, I’m his bride; I’m his crown (Proverbs 12:4); I’m his glory (1 Corinthians 11:7).

Yes, the Bible says that marriage protects us from being soaked in sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 7). What a joy then to see someone escaping such a “ruthless tyrant” as sexual immorality!

No one can fight against sin unless they are born of God.

Many people want to stop watching porn. If tears could have saved a person from porn, many would have been saved from porn addiction because they have cried their eyes out, thinking that God would see their tears and say, “Okay! That is enough! I will take that desire out of you.”
