quote:
Lead researcher Dr Simon Moore said: "Our favoured explanation is that giving children sweets and chocolate regularly may stop them learning how to wait to obtain something they want.
"Not being able to defer gratification may push them towards more impulsive behaviour, which is strongly associated with delinquency."

this country is a fucking state. If they cant control a group of the public, they blame it on something innocent. Cant control rowdy violent kids, blame sweets. Cant control kids having sex; blame shag bands (i never actually read that article, but thats the impression i got). Why not do anytging about it. These problems wernt around 10-15 years ago :/

tbh, an alarming number of convicted murderers have at some point in their lives breathed in oxygen...

If the title of the thread is correct, I would be in prison right now for committing a mass murder on the scale of 9/11.
But I'm not, and I haven't, so I think they're wrong
