FINALLY _ Can't thank you enough for that article, Due.
Excellent Science.
People get on our 'very young' about the 'excessive obesity' in America.
Well - HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR THEM - IT IS THE 'ADULTS' WHO ARE COMPLETELY AT FAULT FOR THAT.
The 'obesity epidemic' can be pretty well correlated to the increase in the number of days spent in 'school' over the past 40 years. From about 7.5 months - to almost 10.5 months per year in some areas. Add to that OCD teachers that can't handle 'kids who fidget' a lot - and insist on having parents, authorities, 'medical people' put those kids on drugs that 'stop their damn fidgeting' - and guess what - OUR CHILDREN ARE SUFFERING BECAUSE OF IT.
No Shit, Sherlock. DOH !
