Features: Love is a First-Class "Height Enhancer"
In real life, many parents worry about their children's height. In fact, there are many factors affecting height, including genetics, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and even psychological factors. Physical development is influenced by natural, social, and family environments, but in young children, the impact of the family environment is particularly significant. A stable relationship between parents and children, especially between mothers and children, is an indispensable part of a child's growth. Once this relationship collapses, a child's growth in height can be affected. In this way, children who stop growing in height or become stunted due to a lack of the love they deserve are called "love-deprivation stunting."
A child's psychological stress is also related to the love they receive. No wonder some scholars call love a first-class "height enhancer." So, what kind of magic does love have that allows the body to grow taller?
First, children who can fully enjoy family warmth and parental love have guaranteed nutrition intake and timely and effective treatment for physical illnesses. More importantly, they do not suffer from "shadow psychological states" that affect normal eating, digestion, and sleep. Therefore, their growth hormone secretion is also relatively.
Human growth hormone is synthesized and secreted by adenohypothalamic cells and plays a key regulatory role in growth and development, especially in height. There are many reasons for insufficient growth hormone secretion, including hypothalamic regulatory disorders, insufficient sleep, lack of exercise, and low levels of sex hormones.
Children who lack family love have reduced secretion of growth hormone-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus. Growth hormone-releasing hormone is a hormone that regulates the synthesis and secretion of growth hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Its deficiency undoubtedly affects a child's growth and development.
Furthermore, children from problem families often suffer from sleep disorders, such as difficulty falling asleep and frequent nightmares. Growth hormone secretion is relatively low when a person is awake but significantly increases during slow-wave sleep. Approximately 60 minutes after entering slow-wave sleep, blood growth hormone levels peak, and secretion decreases again during delta sleep. Therefore, poor sleep quality is also a reason for their stunted growth.
Additionally, children who lack love often suffer from psychological stress and incomplete personality development, leading to reduced social interaction and insufficient exercise. Due to the lack of appropriate exercise stimulation and the regulatory effect of sex hormones on growth hormone secretion, these children not only develop slowly but also struggle to grow taller.
Therefore, whether from a physical or psychological perspective, parental love is extremely important. P32-33
