Scientists are baffled once again at their inability to figure out the results of a new study! ”Children born to mothers who used cell phones during pregnancy more likely to have behavioral disorders” but the scientists can’t figure out why!
Does anyone see a pattern evolving in which scientists announce study results that don’t make sense to the scientists, much less anyone else?
Here’s a snippet: A joint U.S.–Danish team has reported that young children born to mothers who had used cell phones during pregnancy were more likely to have behavioral disorders, such as hyperactivity and emotional problems.
“These results were unexpected and should be interpreted with caution. Observed associations are not necessarily causal,” they wrote. Yet they close the paper with the following warning, “If they are real, they would have major public health implications.”
“We do not have a biological mechanism that could explain the findings,” he said, “That is, we do not know the ‘how’ or the ‘why’.”
STOP! You’ve seen these women (or men) on their cell phones, constantly, ignoring their crying, nagging or screaming children when you’re in the store, bank, restaurant. ”Get off the phone and pay attention to your kids” you scream, but only in your head.
I’ll give you the “why” that this study’s authors don’t want to just say. And the reason they’re not saying it is because it’s the new style to blame everything on someone or something else. Your kids have emotional and behavior problems. You’re always on the phone. Do we need rocket scientists or danish scientists to tell us what’s going on?
“We can’t find a connection between the mothers’ cell phone use and the behavioral problems” of these kids. Let me throw you a clue, Encyclopedia Brown. Go visit some of the moms from your study, but don’t tell them you’re coming. I’ll bet you a month’s worth of unlimited long distance that they answer the door with a phone at their ear.
