He spends most afternoons playing ball with his friends and often invites them home to play in the yard. Ricky, two years older than Roger, is much smaller, thin and wiry. He wears thick glasses over his brown eyes that are nearly as dark as his hair. Unlike his brother, Ricky prefers solitary games and spends most afternoons at home playing video games, building model cars, and reading comic books. How can Roger and Ricky have the same parents and live in the same home yet differ markedly in appearance, personality, and preferences?

(Eds.) Human Development in the 21st Century: Visionary Policy Ideas from Systems Scientists. Council on Human Development, Bethesda, MD. February 12, 2005 Robert was small and slightly underweight at birth. He had been exposed to drugs while his mother was pregnant. His cries sometimes sounded high-pitched, and he was often tense and rigid. Robert’s mother moved twice before he was two-years old. First she moved in with her mother; then she moved out again. Robert was not quite as quick as other children at learning new words. He was not good at sorting blocks and learning to pick up beads. Robert had a new sister, a half-sister when he was three. There were not many books or magazines at home. When Robert began kindergarten, he had trouble learning the letters. Sometimes, he seemed a little tuned out and apathetic. A constellation of prenatal insults, neighborhood poverty, and family disorganization contributed to Robert’s delayed developmental course. But what about Robert’s mother’s substance abuse? Many drugs used during pregnancy travel freely through the umbilical cord and cross the fetal blood-brain barrier. What kind of effect would such drugs have on Robert’s development? A developmental systems model suggests that the interplay of many factors influence Robert’s development.

Braz. J. Food Technol., v. 20, e2016161, 2017. Received: Nov. 07, 2016; Approved: Jan. 13, 2017 Abstract The main objective of this review was to describe and emphasize the care that a woman must have in the period prior to pregnancy, as well as throughout pregnancy and after the birth of the baby, cares and duties that should continue to be followed by mother and child throughout the first years of the child’s life. Such cares are of nutritional, behavioral and lifestyle natures, and also involve the father and the whole family. Human development, from conception to maturity, consists of a critical and important period due to the multitude of intrinsic genetic and environmental factors that influence, positively or negatively, the person’s entire life.

  • (FAS) and Other Alcohol-Related Birth Defects?
    Why Teach Middle and High School Students about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) and Other Alcohol-Related Birth Defects? Maternal alcohol abuse results in irreversible emotional, mental and physical damage in approximately 50,000 U.S. newborns per year. (http://www.nofas.org, 2004) These alcohol-related birth defects affect all races and socio-economic groups. The annual cost estimates for FAS and related conditions in the U.S. is estimated to be as much as $7.8 billion. (Addiction Biology, Vol.9, No.2, 2004) FAS and other alcohol-related birth defects are 100% preventable. Middle and high school students need to be taught about this issue as they make their life-style choices. How to Use This Curriculum The Better Safe Than Sorry Curriculum is designed to promote education regarding alcohol-related birth defects and their prevention. It is available herein as hard copy, and also with printable pages on CD-ROM. This curriculum is designed to be flexible with respect to a range of student ages and experiences as well as the amount of class time that can be set aside for this topic. Based on available time, the curriculum appears as a one, two or three star program (pages 16-20). Classroom activities can range from viewing an informative video (15 minutes) to inclusion of a simple hands-on experiment, playing a fun and fact-filled game and conducting other teacher- or student- driven activities (>90 minutes). The subject matter readily lends itself to being taught in science or health classes and meets the National Science Education Standards for Science Content Standards.

  • Early Pregnancy Guidelines
    Early Pregnancy Guidelines With references from: As you begin your journey… We at Columbia University Fertility Center are so excited for you and your family, and wish you health throughout the journey ahead. Over the next few weeks, we will continue to monitor your pregnancy through blood tests to measure your beta hCG and progesterone blood levels, and later, pregnancy ultrasounds. But we understand that you may have some questions about best practices during these first few months of your pregnancy: what you can eat, where you can go, when you can begin exercising, just to list a few. The following packet contains responses to some of the most commonly asked questions by our patients based on the most current medical guidelines and recommendations. We’ve also included here a list of local community groups that offer support through early pregnancy at no extra cost. If you’re interested in private consultations with a therapist, nutritionist or psychiatrist, we have included a list of resources at the end of the document. You may also want to start thinking about finding an obstetrician, if you do not already have one. We recommend perusing columbiadoctors.org as a start. After your first or second pregnancy ultrasound (around 6-7 weeks of pregnancy), you can schedule your first appointment with an obstetrician in order to be seen around 10- 11 weeks of pregnancy. (To calculate your ‘gestational age,’ please visit http://perinatology.com/calculators/Due-Date.htm.) Finally: Patients ‘graduate’ from our Center around 8 weeks of pregnancy, but we hope to stay in touch.
