Are Your Kids Driving You Nuts? They Actually Are Making You Live Longer! [LIST]

I love my kids, I really do.  But sometimes I swear they're tring to kill me!  All parents feel that way sometimes, but it turns out, it's the exact opposite!  The results are part of a list of seemingly harmful things that actually make you live longer!  Take a look!

• Having Lots of Kids:  Sure, it sometimes feels like they're sucking the life right out of you, but according to a study, each child that a mother has adds approximately 4 months to a mom's life, and an average of 3 months to dad!
• Living During a Recession:  According to the CDC, from 2007 to 2010, the death rate in the U.S. went down while life expectancy went up.  The same thing happened during the peak of the Great Depression.  One reason....people can't afford to go out as much, which means fewer cars on the road.  Plus we can't buy things that are bad for us.
• Drinking:  Yes, drinking too much is bad for you, but people who don't drink at all actually don't live as long as people who do drink occasionally.  Plus, drinkers tend to be more social, and socializers tend to live longer lives.
