Can babies sleep with the elderly? What are the dangers of sleeping with the elderly for a long time

Of course. It will lead to poor independence of the baby, and will also lead to the baby's special dependence on elders, which will not be conducive to the healthy physical and mental development of the baby, and will also affect the baby's sleep, and will affect the relationship between the baby and the parents.

The elderly try not to choose to sleep with their children, because this will cause serious harm to both the children and the elderly, and the elderly's sleep is relatively shallow, so long-term delusions will cause harm to the mental state of the elderly next time.

Of course, it is possible to sleep with the elderly, it is easy to develop bad habits, easy to lead to spoiling, there is no way to develop good living habits, there is no way to pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene.

Because the pressure on young people nowadays is relatively high, they are all old and young, and they want to go out to work, so many young people only give their children to the elderly, and the old people really help a lot, but after work, for example, when sleeping at night, I still hope that young people can take care of their children, and it is best to sleep in separate beds with children, and do not let children sleep with the elderly too much. Sleeping with the elderly is harmful to children.

First, there may be health problems.

We all know that compared with young people, there is still a little bit of little attention to hygiene, especially some of the more paranoid and stubborn old people, they don't pay attention to hygiene, and they can't listen to the persuasion of young people. If such an elderly person sleeps with a child, it may bring certain problems to the child's health, so the elderly who do not pay attention to hygiene should try not to sleep with their children.

2. Transmission of certain diseases.

Secondly, because the child is still young, the immunity is relatively low, so the resistance is still relatively poor, and the elderly are old, if you sleep with the child at night, maybe some viruses or bacteria will be passed to the child with breathing, which also has a certain adverse effect on the healthy growth of the child, so we still have to advocate sleeping in separate beds with the child.

Third, we should pay attention to cultivating feelings with children.

In fact, as a young parent, it is also necessary to pay attention to cultivating feelings with children, busy day after a day is not at home, and when you come back at night, you will not spend more time with your children, which will easily make your children feel unfamiliar, so we try to choose a room with children at night, of course, when the children are older, you can set up a separate room. If it is a small child, you can also choose a crib, and sleeping in separate beds still has certain benefits for children.

1. Affect mental development.

Especially the elderly, the function of the respiratory system will deteriorate, when sleeping at night, the elderly often need to inhale more fresh air to obtain oxygen, if the baby sleeps with the elderly, it will be forced to inhale a large amount of exhaust gas, which will not only affect the baby's physical development, mental development, but also have a great impact on the baby's future personality and personality. Of course, it doesn't mean that children can't live with the elderly, they can still live together as usual during the day, but it's better to be separated as much as possible during the night's rest.

2. Affect children's breathing.

The baby is young, and the ability to breathe and the functions of various organs in the body are not perfect. If you sleep with an adult, the carbon dioxide exhaled by the adult will be diffused around the baby all night long, so that the baby can not breathe fresh air, affecting the baby's absorption of oxygen, resulting in restless sleep, nightmares and crying at night.

There may be a cough in the middle of the night, which will affect the child's sleep, and will also affect the child's spirit, which will make the child develop a relatively light sleep quality, and the baby will be disturbed by the elderly, and will also affect the child's body and mind.

It will be infected with some bacteria, which will affect the quality of children's sleep and make children sleep very unsteadily. It is easy to fall out of bed, which will affect the baby's development.

Nowadays, many parents of children need to go to work, so they give their children to their grandparents or grandparents, but at night the parents of the children will bring their children with them and do not let the children sleep with the elderly.

There was once a saying that the old man had a heavy yin qi and could not sleep with his children. If the elderly and children are allowed to sleep together for a long time, the elderly's face will become more and more ruddy, and the child's health will become worse and worse.

This statement sounds a little unreliable, more feudal superstition, but scientifically speaking, letting the baby sleep with the elderly will indeed affect the health of the child, mainly the respiratory system. Because the respiratory function of the elderly is somewhat declining, they will inhale more fresh air to obtain enough oxygen when they sleep at night, and the corresponding babies who sleep with the elderly will inhale more carbon dioxide, which will lead to insufficient oxygen intake for the baby and affect the development of the brain.

It seems that it doesn't matter whether the old man's yin qi is heavy or not, it is indeed not good for the health of the child that the old man and the child sleep together, so it is not recommended to let the old man sleep with the child, in addition to the above will affect the health of the child, it will also have the following adverse effects:

1. Babies are more likely to get sick.

The baby's immune system is not yet fully developed, and the resistance to many viruses is not as good as that of adults. Compared with the parents of young children, the elderly are more likely to contract some diseases, and when the elderly sleep with their children, it is easy to infect the baby with germs and cause the baby to get sick.

Second, the baby's sleep quality is poor.

The baby's sleep is very susceptible to external interference, and the slight cough and the sound of opening the door will wake up the baby. The elderly are less awake and wake up more often, and the second is to care too much about the child, and always like to touch the baby's body after getting up at night to see if the baby is hot or cold. And this kind of care will interfere with the baby's sleep and affect the quality of sleep.

3. The baby lacks independence.

It is said that the intergenerational relatives, the old people love their children very much, and most of them have reached the level of doting. Let the elderly sleep with the child, and the elderly will generally wrap up all the children's things, such as making the bed, folding the quilt, dressing, etc. Naturally, children will not be exposed to these things, and it will be difficult for them to stand on their own feet.

Fourth, the baby lacks a sense of security.

No matter how well grandparents take care of their children, they can't replace their mother's love. Before birth, the child gets a sense of security through the mother's warm womb, and after birth, it needs to get a sense of security through the mother's breastfeeding and hugging. If the mother can't take care of the child during the day and chooses to let the child sleep with the elderly at night, the child will become fragile, timid, and insecure due to the lack of maternal love.

5. Affect the health of the elderly.

The above is all about the impact on children, in fact, letting children sleep with the elderly at night also has a great impact on the health of the elderly. It is very hard to take care of children, and it is tired enough for the elderly to help take down the children during the day, and let the elderly take care of the children at night, which will seriously affect the sleep of the elderly and is not conducive to physical health.

Most parents usually don't have much time to take care of their children, because they have to go to work and have a lot of things to do, so they all hand over the baby to the elderly to help take them.

Some people say that babies should not sleep with the elderly, they say that it is because the old people have heavy yin qi, and the baby sleeping with them will affect the child's spirit, but this is not the case. It's not that the old man is yin, in fact, the real reason is the following:

1.Most of the body of the elderly is poor, and the breath of the exhalation is more carbon dioxide, and the baby needs fresh air, the elderly and the baby sleep together, the baby can not breathe fresh air, more is the breath of the elderly, which will affect the baby's brain development.

2.The elderly generally get up early, or what sound will there be in the middle of the night, which will affect the baby's sleep, and the child needs enough sleep to help the body grow well, and the elderly will be hyperactive and get up early will affect the child's sleep.

3.It is best not to leave the mother when the baby is small, otherwise the baby will feel insecure. And you will feel insecure until you grow up, so mothers still have to stay with the baby, sleep with the baby, and the baby will be closer to you.

4.The newborn baby's body resistance is relatively weak, and the health of the elderly is also slightly worse. When the elderly sleep with their baby, some diseases or bacteria may infect the child, and eventually cause the child to get sick as well.

5.Older people tend to spoil their children too much, and children are certainly better off in the presence of their parents. Some methods of the elderly may spoil the child and eventually develop bad habits.

From the perspective of the five elements, any object is mutually reinforcing, the two objects at least have different heat, heat exchange, resulting in insufficient calories in children, easy to catch a cold and get sick, after many colds, the body's immune system function will decline, and it will be easy to get sick ...... later

Effects on the elderly:

There is also the elderly and children sleep, the elderly are easy to rest badly. Because the child is energetic, he may kick the quilt when sleeping, and the elderly can't sleep because they care about the child, so they always have to get up in the middle of the night to see the child and cover the quilt for him, so that the old man can't sleep and affect the rest.

Effects on children:

From a health point of view, the metabolism of the elderly is slow, and they are prone to some stubborn diseases, such as beriberi, ringworm, etc., and children will be infected if they sleep with them. Most of the digestive system of the elderly is not good, so the breath and smell exhaled can also affect the child. The elderly have some problems and habits, and children are also susceptible to being affected by the past.

In fact, children should let them sleep by themselves during the growing period, which is the most conducive to growth and development.

The old man's exhaled breath was cloudy.

Elderly people, because of the decline of physical function, so when they sleep, the exhaled breath is not only cloudy, but also has a bad smell. If parents let their children sleep in the same room with the elderly, the exhaled air of the elderly will definitely be inhaled into the child's body, which will endanger his physical and mental health. And in addition to this, most of the old people also have their own bad smell, but this smell does not affect the physical and mental health of the child, but the very young children, they often have something to say, if the child shows the old man that his body smells, it will definitely make the old man heartbroken.

However, for the sake of children's health and the self-esteem of the elderly, parents should not let their children sleep with the elderly.

Older people have a wide range of medical conditions.

As many people get older, their body's resistance will decline dramatically, so they will catch a cold easily. Although some elderly people are very healthy and do not have any serious diseases, they can't avoid small and medium-sized illnesses such as fever and cold. If a child sleeps with an elderly person who has a cold, there is no doubt that the risk of suffering from the disease will also increase.

Therefore, even if the child gets along well with the elderly, in order to ensure his physical and mental health, parents should not let him sleep with the elderly.

Children and the elderly have different schedules.

Most of the children are lively, and they often play late at night, and the elderly have a later schedule than the younger ones. Just like our grandmother Zhang downstairs, she wakes up at 5 o'clock every morning and falls asleep after dinner at night. If parents let their children sleep with the elderly at this kind of schedule, it will definitely affect the elderly's schedule and then affect his physical and mental health.

Therefore, it is very inappropriate to let children sleep with the elderly, and I hope that parents will pay attention to this.

If the child does not sleep with the elderly, the main reason is that these reasons may affect the parent-child relationship between parents and children, which may affect the cultivation of children's independence, and may also affect the baby's sleep, affect the child's development, and so on.

Because the child is relatively young, it will affect the child's sleep quality, and sleeping together will affect the child's physical health; It is easy for children to get sick.

It may be that the child will go to bed too early, or that the child will wake up too early in the morning, which will affect the time of normal sleep.

One is that it will affect the relationship between parents and children, the second is that it will lead to poor independence of children, and the third is that it will affect children's development and so on.
