Ngaba amakhwenkwe ayakhula kwiminyaka yawo yokufikisa?
Amakhwenkwe abonakala ekhula ngexabiso elimangalisayo, elinokuthi lenze nawuphi na umzali azibuze: Amakhwenkwe ayeka nini ukukhula?
Ngokwe-National Health Service (NHS), inkoliso yamakhwenkwe igqiba ukukhula kwayo xa ineminyaka eli-16 ubudala. Amanye amakhwenkwe anokuqhubeka nokukhula ngenye intshi okanye ngaphezulu kwiminyaka yabo yeshumi elivisayo.
Qhubeka ufunda ukuze ufunde ngakumbi malunga nokukhula kwamakhwenkwe kunye nento onokuyilindela.
Ukufikisa kukuchaphazela njani ukukhula?
Amakhwenkwe akhula ngokukhawuleza ngexesha lokufikisa. Nangona kunjalo, amaqondo okukhula anokuhluka kakhulu kuba amakhwenkwe ahamba kwinqanaba lokufikisa kwiminyaka eyahlukeneyo. Ngokomndilili, amakhwenkwe athambekele ekukhuleni ejikeleze ii-intshi ezintathu (okanye 7.6 iisentimitha) ngonyaka ngeli xesha.
Ubudala benkwenkwe xa idlula ebusheni abuchaphazeli ukuba ubude bayo buya kuba bude kangakanani, kodwa iyakuchaphazela xa ukukhula kwayo kuqala kwaye kuyeka.
Amakhwenkwe athambekele ekuweleni kwizigaba ezibini:
- ukuvuthwa kwasekuqaleni, ukuqala ukufikisa malunga neminyaka eli-11 okanye eli-12 ubudala
- Abavuthayo emva kwexesha, ukuqala ukufikisa malunga neminyaka eli-13 okanye eli-14 ubudala
Zombini ezi ndidi zihlala zifumana umndilili ofanayo weesentimitha ukuphakama, kodwa abavuthayo emva kwexesha bavame ukukhula kwinqanaba elikhawulezayo ukwenza ixesha elilahlekileyo. Ngexesha lokufikisa, ukuphakama okuphezulu okufikelelwa ngamakhwenkwe ngama-92 epesenti yokuphakama kwabantu abadala.
Amakhwenkwe anezithintelo ekukhuleni ngaphambi kokuba aqalise ukufikisa afumana umndilili ofanayo weesentimitha ukuphakama ngexesha lokufikisa. Abaze balungiselele nakuphi na ukusilela ngaphambi kokufikisa.
Yintoni ukuphakama okuphakathi kwamakhwenkwe?
Kumadoda aseMelika aneminyaka engama-20 ubudala nangaphezulu, zii-intshi ezingama-69.1 (175.4 cm), okanye ngaphezulu kwe-5 yeenyawo i-intshi ezi-9 ubude.
Ukuphakama ngokweminyaka
Kwiminyaka eli-10 ubudala, ukuqala kokuqala kokufikisa, isiqingatha sawo onke amakhwenkwe siya kuba ngaphantsi kweesentimitha ezingama-54.5 (138.5 cm). Iindawo eziphakathi eziphakathi ezidweliswe ngezantsi zithathwe ukusuka ngo-2000:
Ubudala (iminyaka) | Ukuphakama kwama-50 epesenti yamakhwenkwe (intshi kunye neesentimitha) |
8 | 50.4 kwi. (128 cm) |
9 | I-52.6 in (133.5 cm) |
10 | 54.5 kwi. (138.5 cm) |
11 | 56. 4 in. (143.5 cm) |
12 | 58.7 kwi. (149 cm) |
13 | 61.4 kwi. (156 cm) |
14 | 64.6 kwi. (164 cm) |
15 | 66.9 kwi. (170 cm) |
16 | 68.3 kwi. (173.5 cm) |
17 | 69.1 ngaphakathi. (175.5 cm) |
18 | 69.3 kwi. (176 cm) |
Yeyiphi indima edlalwa yimfuzo kubude?
Imfuza evela kubo bobabini abazali idlala indima ekumiseleni ubude kunye nokukhula kwamakhwenkwe namantombazana. Ezinye izinto ezinje ngokutya, inqanaba lomsebenzi, kunye nokutya kukamama ngexesha lokukhulelwa nako kuchaphazela ukuphakama.
Inkqubo yabazali phakathi yenye yeendlela zokuqikelela ukuba umntwana uya kuba mde kangakanani. Kule ndlela, udibanisa ukuphakama kwabazali (nge-intshi), uze wahlule inani ngo-2.
Yongeza ii-intshi ezi-2,5 kule nombolo ukufumana ubude obuqikelelweyo benkwenkwe. Thabatha ii-intshi ezingama-2.5 ukusuka kule nombolo ukufumana ukuphakama okuqikelelweyo kwintombazana.
Umzekelo, thatha inkwenkwe enoyise eyi-70 inches ubude kunye nomama onee-62 inches ubude.
- 70 + 62 = 132
- 132 / 2 = 66
- 66 + 2.5 = 68.5
Ukuphakama okuqikelelweyo kwenkwenkwe kuya kuba zi-intshi ezingama-68.5, okanye ii-5 iinyawo eziyi-8.5 ubude.
Oku akunjalo ngqo, nangona kunjalo. Abantwana banokugqibela kangangeesentimitha ezine ubude okanye bufutshane kunobude obuqikelelwe yile ndlela.
Ngaba amakhwenkwe akhula ngesantya esahlukileyo kunamantombazana?
Amakhwenkwe namantombazana akhula ngokwahlukileyo. Amakhwenkwe adla ngokukhula ngenqanaba elikhawulezayo ebuntwaneni. Ngokomndilili, amakhwenkwe nawo adla ngokuba mde kunamantombazana. Yiyo loo nto oogqirha basebenzisa iitshathi zokukhula ezahlukileyo zamakhwenkwe namantombazana ukulinganisa ukukhula ngokuhamba kwexesha.
Ipesenti umntwana wakho awela kuyo ayibalulekanga njengokungqinelana. Ukuba umntwana wakho wehla kwi-40th percentile ukuya kwi-20, umzekelo, ugqirha wabo unokucebisa iimvavanyo ukumisela oyena nobangela.
Yintoni ebangela ukulibaziseka kokukhula?
Zininzi izinto ezinokubangela ukulibaziseka kokukhula, kubandakanya:
- iimeko zonyango ezichaphazela idlala lengqula
- ukukhula kwamahomoni
- amanqanaba e-insulin
- iihomoni zesini
- I-Down syndrome kunye nezinye iingxaki zemfuza
Amakhwenkwe atyebe kakhulu kwaye atyebe kakhulu athola ukuba namaqondo asezantsi okukhula. Ukungondleki ngexesha lobuntwana nako kunokubambezela ukukhula.
Ukulibaziseka kokukhula kunokuqapheleka kakhulu ngexa lokuzalwa komntwana, yiyo loo nto kubalulekile ukugcina ishedyuli notyelelo lwabantwana abalungileyo. Kutyelelo ngalunye, ugqirha wabantwana oya kulandelela ukukhula. Oko kuvumela ugqirha ukuba abone ingxaki kwangoko.
Yintoni i-takeaway?
Ngokubanzi, amakhwenkwe athanda ukuyeka ukukhula malunga neminyaka eli-16. Izinto ezininzi zinokuchaphazela ukukhula kwaye, ekugqibeleni, ukuphakama. Oku kubandakanya imiba yokusingqongileyo kunye nokutya kunye nenqanaba lomsebenzi womzimba.
Ukuba unenkxalabo malunga nokukhula okulibazisekayo, nxibelelana nogqirha womntwana wakho.
