....really... f*ck i'm glad i moved away from barrie, dumb ass parents

$1:

"I'm not saying it's because of the Wi-Fi because we don't know yet, but I've pretty much eliminated every other possible source."

ahh yes you've eliminated every other possible source eh....take you a whole afternoon to do that?

$1:

They are culpable and … they have the gall to go on the record and say they haven't had any doctor's notes. Well what doctor has been schooled about the rate of microwave infections

MICROWAVE INFECTIONS!?!?!?!? i would have loved to go to the school board meeting where these idiot parents proposed these changes, i would have f*cking laughed them out of the building

[Mustang1]

Yeah, right. Do these kids get "sick" at the mall, movie theatre, restaurants, car dealerships, stores, public buildings because i'll bet ya' most have them all have Wi-Fi! I'm calling bull.

[raydan]

Time to get the tin foil hats out.

[KorbenDeck]

I'm going to guess its the lighting at the school IF there is anything causing it at all

"If they're going to continue to endanger the health of children, I can predict that many of the parents who are now writing us saying their kids have been fine all summer are going to have a change of heart about the third week of September when their kids are coming home from school with these problems, particularly the ones that are passing out and falling down, hitting their head on the gym floor," he said.

Yeah, passing out in gym class would have nothing to do with being up all night playing Xbox, having lousy diets and being obese though could it?? Nahhh, it's gotta be WiFi cuz we all know that anything wrong with junior is NOT the fault of the parents or from lack of proper parenting. Seriously, I'd like to see what the average weight or fitness level is of these kids that are passing out in gym and hitting their heads on the floor.

[Mustang1]

And while they're at home (with Wi-Fi - even from a neighbors) their kids are fine, right? Exactly. I guarantee they've come into significant contact with Wi-Fi networks over the summer, whether it's the movie theatre, mall, car, stores, etc.

2cdo suspects ontario parents are dumb-asses.

[QBall]

This sort of crap has been going on since the first radios were available to the public. Some bogeyman, new name.

[raydan]

I suspect that dumb parents make me sick.

[Benn]

So this only affects those under 18 while the rest of us living among Wi-Fi are just fine? Uuuuhh huh!

Funny that. I'm rather surprised they aren't looking a lot harder at the building itself. There's been some cases, as I recall, where older buildings are emmiting fumes that cause those very same symptoms.

And if the parents have been talking to their kids about the symptoms they're supposed to have at school and not have at home, then their kids (at least some of them) will increasingly report having them at school ant not at home. Particularly since the symptoms are so vague and subjective. Headaches, dizziness, nausea - all subjective. Racing heart rate is a stress reaction. If you're told by your parents your school is making you sick, you're going to worry about it and get your heart rate up when you're at school. This is all utter bullshit.
