By adulthood, “those who [as children] were more impulsive and easily frustrated and had the most trouble with delaying gratification or waiting their turn ” were about three times as likely to report that they had poor health, had low incomes, were single parents, or had committed a crime.
Sewaktu dewasa, ” mereka yang [semasa kecil] cenderung menuruti dorongan hati, gampang frustrasi, dan sangat tidak sabaran ” punya kemungkinan kira - kira tiga kali lebih besar untuk melaporkan bahwa mereka mengalami gangguan kesehatan, punya pendapatan yang minim, menjadi orang tua tunggal, atau terlibat tindak kejahatan.
