Kids Who Sleep in Parents' Bed Less Likely to Be Overweight - Polidicks

[QUOTE=GameDev;35900061]Suddenly all obese people run home and jump in their parents bed[/QUOTE] run? unlikely. anecdotal evidence time: I never slept in my parents bed and I'm fat as shit.

I sometimes slept in my parents bed when I was little, but only as an instinctive defence against younger siblings. I didn't keep it up long enough though, so I have a sister 8 years younger than me. Talk about a backfire.

I used to do this when I was younger, I'm skinny now. :eng101: [QUOTE=Mister Sandman;35900692]When you go to sleep at night, the monster under your bed comes out and feeds you chicken mcnuggets[/QUOTE] I don't particularly think the Bogeyman would be interested in being tied to one and only one Fast Food chain.

I very rarely slept in my parents' bed and I'm all flat surfaces and hard angles hell even my fingers lost weight, my thumb is twice as long as most adult's ring fingers

I just subconsciously ignored the word ''bed''[IMG]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-ohdear.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;35899766]Assuming that there's even some sort of correlation.[/QUOTE] i can see it, for instance, a child that has no parental love might be prone to depression which leads to overeating in some people, at least this the most plausible reason anyway.

[QUOTE=Nemisis116;35900016]No... Kids get fat because they eat too fucking much, there is no brain science to it, just sugar and fatty foods.[/QUOTE] the "recent" (past 30 years) rise of obesity in america has been due to lack of exercise. The more traditional reasons regarding obesity has also been depression (leads to tons of destructive behaviors and fat retention) and accessibility to healthier foods (most poor areas are filled with mcdonald's and kfc's, but very little super markets, healthier food costs more too) tl;dr: It's been scientifically proven time and time again for years that people are fat not because they are conveniently some dumbass who can't stop having 2nd's or third's.

What? Obesity CAN'T be linked to fucking EVERYTHI- wait, shit. I think I just gained a pound typing this post.
