Mother called out loud ... fire alarm

Many children can sleep well even though they are loudly buzzing around, but they will wake up when their mother calls and obeys them immediately. This interesting discovery is published in the journal " Pediatrics " (USA) issue on October 2.

This study once again confirms the previous conclusions that things affecting adults are not always true for children.

Dr. Gary Smith, Director of the Center for Injury Research and Treatment at Columbus Children's Hospital (USA) and colleagues conducted a monitoring of 24 children between the ages of 6 and 12 and found up to 23 children. " wake up " when listening to the awakening of the mother, 14 children wake up when they hear the alarm clock. Only one child does not wake up for this reason or that reason.

The study also showed that when babies hear the call, they wake up for an average of 20 seconds, while being awakened by "traditional alarms" (such as setting an alarm clock), It takes children up to 3 minutes . to open the eyes.
