    parents avoid talking to children about death because they think it will upset them but in reality it is better to let them know about death so that they can deal with it easily.

    Talking to children about death can be difficult because they will be scared but on the other way it is a good idea to explain the death for them but not in specific way, children should be learn that when someone dies you won't have the capacity to see them once more. So, parents must talk about death to their children to have more knowledge.
  • alexbtnt on 04 Jan 17
     
    Talking about death is hard even for adult, so it definitely will upset the children but it is best to tell them from a young age with a not to specific way. And I think religion does help a lot with explaining death to a child without upsetting them.

    Can't seem to access the article, regardless this is a great topic. Death for some reason is a taboo topic that isn't talked about enough. For something that is natural and happens to everyone it is amazing how little understanding about it there is. Regardless of age, death saddens you. However as a young child or toddler, you don't really understand what is happening until your parents explain the finer details. From early on, child birth is usually explained or outlined to young kids as they are gaining younger brothers or sisters. This is the time when death should also be bought up and touched on. The earlier raised, the lesser chance of a death heavily affecting the child will occur.

    Can't access the article either but as mentioned above its an interesting topic. I think that children should be explained about death when they bring themselves first bring it up that way it won't seem as taboo maybe because they themslves asked the question, butif they don't ask about death they an explaination should still been given so they are aware and so it dosen't scare them as much.
  • samikshya222 on 04 Jan 17
     
    Well, in my opinion most of the parents does not talk about death infront of the children because they doestnot wan tthem to be scarerd and that is reason why people acyt very seriously when anyone from their family dies. They think as if they are lost somewhere and never going o come back but they all are unknown with one more bitter reality that is, if human beings never dies than it is one more problem for this universe because it will create more crowd and more crisis. Therefore in my view, everyone should be informmed about the reality of human life. It is created to be destroyed so that everyone could act normally as they act in birth they should they should act the death as well.
  • epicfails on 04 Jan 17
     
    I find it humorous that talking to children about death is taboo when a third of the population expose their children to the belief that if they do something wrong they'll end up in hell. Death is a natural part of life, the sooner they understand and accept it, the better off and healthier they will be. It's about time children were taught the realities of life and not have them replaced with a fiction in kind. 5482550 - Christian N.

    I think thats a tough one because how young is too young to understand? i feel at someone point in ones childhood it should be adressed but yes it may be taboo but also its something that needs to be understood.

    Drinking wine is enjoyable, usually delicious and often relaxing but can we really say it's healthy? This article is referencing various research papers, some of which appear to be meta analysis of other research, to make statements like "moderate drinkers of alcohol have a 14-25 percent decreased risk of cardiovascular disease compared with abstainers." The seemingly comprehensive research review that led to this statement makes no reference to any obvious and potentially important confounding factors, particularly the existing health and age of the participants, irrespective of their alcohol consumption levels, in the conclusion. It's clear that a large amount of analysis has gone into these reports and I would really like the answer to be as stated but in order to be accurate, surely they need to conduct specific research that eliminates these variables before making broad conclusions?
  • samikshya222 on 02 Jan 17
     
    Well, According to the article here, it shows the importance of wine for our body.No doubt it is obvious that we people are unknown about this facts that wine and alcohol is good for human health but we all ignore the truth that nothing is good if we does not make a limit. Even the medicine which can cure us can be drugs if we misused it. Similarly this article proves that even red wine is beneficial for our health.Similarly, red wine is good for our health than white wine because it is five times phytonurients. It is also explained in article that red wine is also helpful to reduce the cholesterol in men who are already taking statin.
  • chameli101400559 on 03 Jan 17
     
    Wine is not just a drink it is a tradition. For some cultures wine is very valuable asset.Most of traditions are based on some kind of social, environment and scientific factor. I think this article proves that it. drinking wine is good for your health, may be our ancestors had known that before we do. However as the Chinese saying too much good is bad, I think wine also have a limit of good and if we exceeded it it not going to be that much good. Nevertheless as a person who does not drink alcohol I like to mention that wine is not the only thing that gives those health benefits. There are so many non alcoholic things out there that gives you so many health benefits. This can not be use as reason to drink alcohol more.
  • fatimaswin on 03 Jan 17
     
    I had no idea about the benefits of red wine on health. In the article it shows the great impact on brain, eye, caner, cardio health, cloistral and diabetes and I think if people drink in responsible way it can not only save us from health issues but also prolongs our lives.
  • a-alhosni on 03 Jan 17
     
    In some culture wine is not good relate to religion such as Islamic religion. wine has health benefits in human life such as: 1. Reducing risk of depression 2. Preventing colon cancer As well as, this article shows that wine impact on the brain and eyes on the positive way, in addition, it is prolongs our lives. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh8KAjRAmms
  • w101465930 on 03 Jan 17
     
    Personally, I think that any form of alcohol is not healthy. You look anyone who doesn't drink and %95 of the time they will be a generally healthier person than those who drink regularly. Types of alcohol may have properties that are great for the body, but if wine is drunk excessively the cons will outweigh the pro's and alcohol will take the upper hand. Resulting in poor general health, addiction, depression. If you watch the News or read papers during one week, you are bound to find something on a currently unhealthy food/drink that has "new research on the health benefits and illness curing abilities if it". In conclusion, there is healthy and unhealthy food. Unfortunately, alcohol or specifically wine, is not part of the healthy food pile.
  • alexbtnt on 04 Jan 17
     
    Drinking alcohol is not healthy if you drink a lot, got wasted and repeatedly because it will damage the neurons of your brain cells. But drinking responsibly with the right wine does help, for example a glass of red wine a day can actually prevent us from heart diseases.
  • t101318157 on 04 Jan 17
     
    Any way you look at alcohol is unhealthy and not good on the body and brain in the long run. Media plays a big part in the marketing process of alcohol so that people buy it. By saying alcohol is healthy is just another way of saying buy our product. Alcohol should only be associated with having a good time with friends and family and leave health out of it.
  • jthird on 04 Jan 17
     
    I don't agree with t101318157 comment, yes alcohol is promoted by the media and labelling it as 'healthy' can play a role in the increased consumption of wine, however simply saying refuting it's health benefits because some people drink to excess is like refuting the benefits of medical opioides because some people abuse it's recreational use. I think responsible intake of red wine in order to increase your bodies efficiency and ability to reduce heart disease and cancer is a useful tool in not only improving health, but also changing the way we view substances that are deemed to be recreational drugs only.
  • epicfails on 04 Jan 17
     
    I personally love a nice glass of wine. The issue I have is the topic itself. For every study that promotes the health associated benefits of consuming wine, you'll invariably encounter those that state drinking wine is bad for you. This is before even looking at those who funded the studies to detect if there is any bias present. I think at the end of the day, as others above have stated, eating or drinking in moderation is key. These articles are click-bait at best and are not worthy of the attention received.
  • felicefelixis on 04 Jan 17
     
    Personally, I'm not a fan of red wine for its bitter after taste, but this article is pretty interesting. I've heard people saying that consuming a glass of red wine with your steak for dinner actually helps with the breakdown of food / fats in this matter. The article talks about a substance called 'resveratol' which is a phytonutrient which works as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. This is the magic substance that gives red wine its healthy property. The article also mentions other health benefits from drinking wine such as cardiovascular health, brain health and cancer prevention. All these don't give people permission to overconsume red wine because it might lead to alcohol-related dementia. Afterall, as long as we have it in moderation, red wine does offer health benefits. not forgetting the pleasure we receive after drinking.
  • jiaqicao on 05 Jan 17
     
    This article describes the advantages and disadvantages of wine. Red wine has about five times more phytonutrients than white wine. they show that drinking can reduce the risk of eye health, reduce the probability of accidents. it helps prevent cancer is it reduces damage to DNA, which is the beginning of cancer. But increased some cancer and Alzheimer's disease. 101363649 carrie

    This article has some interesting information about how wine can help in prevention of many chronic diseases. Furthermore, it is important to consider that how wine has anti carcinogenic properties which can help in prevention of cancer. However, over consumption of alcohol increases chances of developing cancer. Therefore, it is very important to drink wine in moderation.
  • s402201280 on 06 Jan 17
     
    this article is very informative. drinking wine is good for health because it helps in curing so many diseases on the darker side over consumption leads to cancer .
  • jimjamjimmyfu on 06 Jan 17
     
    This was an interesting read. There was nothing that I didn't know prior to reading the article other than the reason there were certain health benefits (eg. prevent blood vessel damage, reduce bad cholesterol, and prevent blood clots). Of course, like most things in life, you should take it in moderation unless you want to be an alcoholic. Though it was interesting to find out that Phytonutrients, which can work as an antioxident and/or anti-inflammatory, is located in the skins of grapes and that in white wine they are removed immediately.
  • katavent on 06 Jan 17
     
    It's cool how red wine has so many positive effects if drunk in moderation. You hear and read so many articles on the dangers of drinking so to read something about the benefits (again, in moderation) is really interesting. The stuff about how it helps the brain was the most interesting part though i think. 23% less likely to get dementia is a pretty crazy statistic.
  • ricearoni27 on 06 Jan 17
     
    Drink up me hearties, yo ho! Although drinking, like many other activities, shouldn't be overused - it turns out a moderate amount of drinking is actually helpful and helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, helps prevent cataracts, helps fight against cancer, helps prevent dementia, and helps one live to an older age! Now, if only we could do something about the taste...

Association between energy drink intake, sleep, stress, and suicidality in Korean adole... - 21 views

    It was interesting to read the discussion to find that adolescence who consumed more energy drinks were actually higher performing academically. However it was not surprising that they were more likely to suffer from mental illness due to symptoms such as sleep deprivation. This is it's such a growing concern.

    Frequent use of caffeinated energy drinks may be associated with undesirable effects, particularly so in children and adolescents.Energy drink intake was significantly associated with sleep dissatisfaction severe stress depressive , suicidal ideation , suicide plan, and suicide attempt , with a higher risk for more frequent use of energy drinks (≥5 times/wk) than for less frequent use . The detrimental effect of energy drinks on mental health was particularly prominent in frequent junk food consumers.
  • fatimaswin on 03 Jan 17
     
    I think Korea should reduce the study time as it has the highest study time which is 7 hours and 50 minutes a day compare to other countries, that is why the stress of study and not having enough time to relax makes them dependant on energy drinks.
  • alexbtnt on 04 Jan 17
     
    it was interesting to know that drinking energy drinks frequently can cause a lot of problems for our mental health such as stress, suicidality, sleep dissatisfaction,... But it is understandable because energy drink contain caffeine so the urge of keep drinking it is hard to get away of, especially when Korean adolescents need something easy to get and instant effect due to their busy schedule.
  • samikshya222 on 04 Jan 17
     
    It is obvious that most of the people prefer to have junk food and at the same time most most them want energy drinks as well. Mostly, Young people are more addicted with such habits. But It is harmful for our health because it will increase the problem like stress, suicidilality and sleep dissatisfaction.According to the above information moreover in Korea it is practiced mostly. Therefore, in my opinion Korea government and even all people must try to solve this problem because young people are the future of the nation,pillar of the nation. So in my view it is everybody duties to keep the future of the nation bright. Thank you

    I think it's important to note that Korea's education system and model is drastically different than that of western countries. In Korea, they not only attend school but the majority also attend Hagwon's (after school tutoring) after which they self-study and usually end up only getting a minimum amount of sleep. The emphasis on education is extremely important in Korea and dictates your status in a society based on a rigid class structure. The pressure to succeed and be accepted in such a rigid system is associated with high levels of stress and suicide. 5482550 - Christian N.
  • felicefelixis on 04 Jan 17
     
    101407013 - Ursula Felicia H. I think the main issue here does not just lie in the consumption of caffeine among students but also the strict education system in Korea. From what I saw in Korean reality shows, many Korean students are deemed to be a disgrace if they fail to pass college entry assessments. This leads to parents having high expectation on their children, at the same time pressurising the children to study hard and do well at school. Students turn to caffeine to boost their energy level to deliver a better performance by sacrificing sleep. As the article suggests, caffeine does have a reverse effect to those who are too dependent on it. Instead of helping them to feel energetic, caffeine actually causes them to suffer from mood swings and sleep deprivation. The lack of sleep prevents our body to do its essential repair function, thus this would lead to ill health and poor mental health as well.
  • jiaqicao on 05 Jan 17
     
    In South Korea, education is a top priority from the beginning, parents usually willing to do whatever it takes to make sure that the children get good grades, and into the South Korea's top universities. Too much pressure causes students to produce insomnia, stress reaction, etc. South Korea university graduates over the years of rising unemployment and the student on education satisfaction decline, many south koreans began to question national education system. Korean education is still a long way to go. 101363649 carrie
  • jimjamjimmyfu on 06 Jan 17
     
    I believe that an issue with this is that in Korea, parents have high expectations for their children. They expect them to behave in a certain way, study hard and get a certain grade, get accepted into a high profile college and university .etc. and this is what leads them to relying in caffeine found in coffee or energy drinks. Of course, this produces more stress among them, making them lose sleep and developing insomnia; staying up late in order to study more. This accumulation of stress can become so overbearing on their physical and mental health that it ultimately leads them to committing suicide.
  • m_murray on 09 Jan 17
     
    Upon reading this article, I found the statistical figures to be alarming - especially that they were gathered from such a large sample size (68,043 adolescents aged 12-18 years). As others have highlighted in their posts, a number of complex issues come into play when analysing such findings; particularly the cultural norms and expectations within the Korean Education framework. The overall pressure that Korean (adolescents in particular) have placed upon them to achieve is enormous. When compared to Western cultural expectations, from an academic point of view, they are at opposite ends of the spectrum. So it's not surprising to find such widespread mental health issues are almost part of the 'norm' amongst Korean students. The article analyzes the correlation between energy drinks (and/or junk food) with various mental health conditions, predominantly related to stress, sleep dissatisfaction, mood, and suicidality. The statistical results on the number of youth that had actually attempted suicide were saddening, despite there being a direct correlation with energy drink consumption. Generally speaking, there is usually some kind of predisposition to such mental health problems. Although, I do not doubt the impact of energy drinks exacerbating stress levels and sleep disturbance, I think it would be worth analysing the overall mental health of Koreans. This may assist in identifying patterns of suicide and suicidal ideation amongst Korean communities.

    Really good example of Tuckman's model. In video all the stages are explained really well i.e., how the group comes together, conflicts start to take place, roles are allotted and the group starts working together towards their goal. However, the victory could not be achieved without a strong leader that actively addresses the conflicts, keep encouraging the team and maintain focus of the group on the goal.

    Firstly, Interpersonal communication is clearly defined in this video and also it give the information or the knowledge gathered about the importance of group work and group ideas. As in the video, it is said that if we want to know about how inteligent the organization we do have to know/ measure about how intelligent the group and group members are. Success will be only possible there is a good cooperation and coordination among people. They have done research regarding the group and their idea and knowledge. The video shows the idea and the knowledge of doing thing that differs within an individual and group. I like the video and enjoyed watching it because it shows the importance of interpersonation communication adn also the importance of group work. More over this is triying to give knowledge to us about the importance of communication because when we communicate with each other it helps to share our views and opinion infront of each other and also helps to solve our problem in need. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tG9YHeZT2A Thank you

    This was a really interesting read, and extremely relevant more and more as we progress in not only our lives as students but as adults joining the workforce. I've noticed that university pushes you to work in groups not only to move out of your comfort zone but to practice working cohesively in a group dynamic, the level of 'group intelligence' is vital to communication and efficiency of how we achieve our group goals (high destinction!). The lessons we take from each group activity allow us to grow our ability to work in a team in a competitive work place environment.

    Short, yet poignant on the dilemma's of everyday life. I really like .... 'a sea of decisions stretches before us'.... It aides in conjuring images of a wide open, deep blue sea, untamed by man.

    the video has sort of re-confirmed my prior knowledge of critical thinking, sometimes we unconsciously do these steps in making decisions in our daily life. For example, my own personal experience in grocery shopping. it's not really critical thinking but it does help me to decide which items are more important than others considering my budget / allowance per week. I have to eliminate the useless ones. -felicia

    The short video demonstrates how important it is to think before making a decision. By practicing critical thinking we can make our life a lot easier, eliminate things that are unnecessary and exactly know what is required. This will lead to as said in the video, making the world a lot reasonable place to live.

    The short video shows that it is so critical to think before settling on a particular choice.It helps in improving our own thought process like when we think before making our decisions it will make our mind more creative and this helps to make our decisions more sounds.Furthermore concentrating on consistent thinking rather than on emotions helps us in getting better results,so one should think before making out their decisions as shown in the video.

    I always know that critical thinking is very important to life and to decision that you make in life but after watching this video I realized it is not just easy to think critically. We have to go through all those 5 steps to make a good decision. I think we have to practice how to think critically because it is not just simple and it is very important to reach your life goals. How ever I think critical think is leading you to make best choices even they are not your favorite choices.

    I agreed with @m_murray that the first thing got my attention is ' a sea of decisions stretches before us', which I believed really helpful to clarify the importance of critical thinking in our daily life. And in my opinion, we subconsciously did some of the steps in the process while we making decisions but not all of them, not following the exact order. I think after seeing this video,I might consider to adjust and try to follow the new process of critical thinking, which I believed will help me to evaluate the circumstances more accurate and efficient.

    Critical thinking is something that can be done subconsciously. And basically involves thinking outside the square and asking questions of the questions. This video shows and reiterates everything that I previously thought of critical thinking. Here are a few things I believe I do and can be done by others: 1. Be aware of your mental process' and the way your mind works. 2. Reversal of process'. The Chicken and egg problem is a great of example of this. What came first? Chickens lay eggs, that have chickens hatch from them. So what was first? 3. Question the norms and assumptions that people have come to believe.
