It’s a very dystopian realisation.
Something was done without the consent of your parents or yourself that has a lasting impact on the rest of your life.
I just hope we hold those responsible to account. This was researched in the 90’s and the scientista that worked on it were muzzled.

How do you explain vastly decreased rates of child abuse vs vastly increased rates of various disorders? This isn’t my area of expertise but it is my wife’s.
It’s kind of an a known at this point that there is something environmental affecting us. Given the number of recent studies, (check my post below) and the ramping interest in BPA/BPS and ~100 similar compounds, I advise watching this space.

As more research is done, it’s going to end up being the lead exposure of our generation. (If I was to make a judgement call now)
Weird downvotes, I guess we love.3M and chemical coorporations now lol?
I’d go ahead and say the cause is likely related to BPA/BPS compounds in plastics. And the exposure of pregnant women to those compounds.
But ya know, that’s just me.
Edit: lol at downvotes, this is newish research. A lot of new information has landed literally in the last week. I sincerely advise keeping an eye on it as research ramps up.
I’ve posted a couple of papers below, one old, one new. As well as a link to an article that does a good job of summarising where our understanding is currently at.
Yes because only communists are upset at the state of things and want to revolt…
Americans and their bullshit political takes never cease to amaze me.
The housing crisis is just starting in the US. Look at Canada and Australia to see how fucked the housing market can get.
Is there a joke in the comic anywhere? This is just an average morning in consulting.
Yeah, usually if I get stuck in my head I’ll just go work in the garden. Bit of sunshine and toil usually gets me unstuck.
