Throw Some Dirt on It! 在上面灑點泥土吧!

Sometimes, getting down and dirty can help rather than hurt.

有時候,坐在地上把自己弄得髒兮兮的不會造成傷害反而還有幫助。

 

The sight of a kid putting a pacifier into their mouth after its been on the floor usually drains the blood out of most parents faces. Seeing them eating something from the floor, or completely covered head to toe in mud will also make them worry. Some people seriously afraid of germs will hurry to clean all traces of germs off of their child. However, those who have a more relaxed approach to parenting actually have the right idea. Many recent studies have shown that kids need to be in contact with germs to build strong, healthy immune systems.

孩子將掉到地上的奶嘴放回嘴裡的景象時常讓多數的父母臉色發白。看見他們吃掉在地上的東西或從頭到腳完全覆蓋在汙泥中也會使父母擔心。某些十分害怕細菌的人們會趕緊清洗掉孩子身上每一點點的細菌。然而,那些對於育兒採取較放鬆態度的父母事實上擁有正確的觀念。許多最近的研究顯示孩子必須與細菌接觸才能建立強壯且健康的免疫系統。

 

There is no doubt that improvements to public health have helped to lower the case of serious illness and death in children over the years. However, completely cutting off kids from germs isnt good for their health, not counting cold and flu season. It could result in a very sensitive immune system, which could lead to higher instances of food allergies, eczema, and asthma. Parents who lick pacifiers to clean them instead of washing them if they fall on the floor are doing their kids a favor. If a child receives all their shots, eats a healthy diet, and plays in the mud, they will be fine. After all, dirt doesn’t always hurt.

毫無疑問,公共衛生的提升多年來已經有助於減少嚴重疾病的案例以及孩童死亡率。然而,將孩童與細菌完全隔離對他們的健康來說並不好,這不包括感冒和流感季節。這可能會導致過於敏感的免疫系統,並引起更多食物過敏、濕疹與氣喘的病例。將掉到地上的奶嘴舔乾淨、而不是拿去洗的父母其實幫了自己的孩子一個大忙。如果孩子有接種所有的疫苗、保持健康的飲食,並在汙泥中玩耍,他們也會沒事。畢竟,灰塵並不一定會造成傷害。
