I dunno. I’ve seen a lot of articles saying that if this thing or that thing isn’t treated, your child is more likely to be a criminal. One friend told me that she read something about people who had hearing loss and didn’t know it being more likely to go to prison.
My take is that if there is something wrong with you, no matter what it is, if it goes unaddressed, your life will be more miserable than if you are fortunate enough to have the opportunity, resources, and good sense to deal with your problem, no matter what it may be.
In my friends example, however, they studied hearing loss in a prison population vs. a regular city. My question was that maybe the hearing loss was caused by something in the prison (loud work areas, bad acoustics), or maybe something in their lifestyle they were doing before prison (loud music). Studies are just that. Some of them need much further study.
But really, it’s something somebody says about damned near everything. It’s why I stopped reading parenting books. I got tired of reading that my kids were going to prison if I didn’t do things the way each book said to do them. Anyway, that makes me leery of stuff like this.
