This theory refers to the idea exposure to an unpredictable, impoverished environment as a kid leads to faster development whereas children who grow up in a stable environment with more resources tend to have a slower developmental course.
According to the life history theory, families with more means often have more anticipation of years of schooling and career before one necessarily has to “grow up”—there’s plenty of time for that later.

Get the life history theorymug. for some reason, history teachers love forcing their students to participate in a random wacky holiday and spend like half the year on their projects
"The creation of my National History Day project came to me in a dream. Better classified as a nightmare, really. After I woke up, I knew I had to do a website. The other project mediums seemed more haunting and daunting. The only thing that made sense to me, the only rational decision after such a nightmare, was to build a website on the most difficult project maker. After all, if I could build a website on that, it would truly prove myself a proper historian. Using the website builder, I clawed and begged and howled to the computer screen for weeks, until coherent words formed, and this project was born."

Get the National History Daymug. New Yorkers wouldn't allow the wildfire to take their Museum of Natural History (or library, or art museum) from them, even if it was getting replaced by a building with more space, and New York has added lots of people since the museum was built, so why would people from other cities allow someone to take their museum and tear it down, even if they were convinced that something bigger and better would replace it, or that they needed a space that wasn't outdated and old, in favor of something new?

Get the friend with historymug. An outrageously over the top sex move. It involves moose antlers, syrup, and the Stanley Cup. Honestly, that's all you want to know.
Mike pulled off Canada's History on Lauren. Let's just say she had a hard time sitting down for the next week.

Get the Canada's Historymug. When a girl makes a guy eat her beaver after she has been using a public toilet and hasn't wiped and then slaps him in the face and says, "Who is your Canadian momma, Bitch!?"
Guy 1: "So, I heard about Janet showing you Canada's History. "
Guy 2: "How did you hear about that?!"

Get the Canada's Historymug. A one time a year sex act. During the third period of the seventh game of the Stanley Cup finals. Maple syrup is poured from a Stanley Cup replica onto the ass of your partner. The partner is then spanked with Moose antlers while singing "O Canada". If the antler sticks, a blow job ensues until climax , when the ejaculate is mixed with the maple syrup to release the stuck antler.(also called "pulling the goalie").
Remember the time we did "Canada's History" and you forgot to "pull the goalie"?
No. It's been so long since a Canadian team has played for the Stanley Cup.
