"Soda-swilling kids get into fights and smash things
Forget the spice and everything nice. Forget the snakes, snails and puppy dog tails.
Today's kids are made of SUGAR, and lots of it -- and some lunatic parents are even giving their soon-to-be-juvenile-delinquents soda in preschool and kindergarten.
Yes, soda.
I'd like to be first in line to smack these people, but their own kids might beat me to it as new research confirms that young children given soda are more likely to be violent and aggressive. Kids who drink the most of these liquid sugar bombs at the age of five (yes, FIVE) are twice as likely to get into fights and destroy things.
And to top it all off, they have attention problems, too.
No kidding. You don't need a study to know that soda will turn a kid rotten in a heartbeat. Just common sense... something sadly lacking in today's so-called parents.
If you've got kids or grandkids don't give them any soda (of course), but do enroll them in self-defense.
They're going to need those skills." - William Campbell Douglas II M.D.
