Quote:Parents, take courage. If you survive the sleep deprivation, toddler tantrums and teenage angst, you may be rewarded with a longer life than your childless peers, researchers said Tuesday.

Fathers gained more in life expectancy than mothers, a team wrote in the Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health -- and particularly in older age.

"By the age of 60, the difference in life expectancy... may be as much as two years" between people with, and those without, children, they concluded.

Surprised it is not more of a gap. Parents and grandparents have other people to live for.

This. i tell people all the time that kids are an investment for when I'm old and am utterly bored by the rest of it all.
