Just throwing in a .....Ya know....
When I was at school/college (I'm 44) no one I knew suffered from allergies
At my childrens school , you cannot wear any fragrance nor bring nuts into the school.
There are a least 6 kids I know of with the allergies...
Additionally no child was being treated for depression , anxiety , or ADD ADHD etc...
they were classed as "little shits"
I raised this with a Shrink I know...
The comments were...
1.) No one had time to consider these problems , they worked and slept.
2.) They self medicated.He did in fact say that my Irish background is in part responsible for drinking to excess it is partly genetic and societal.
