Response to post entitled 'Chocolates may cause violent behaviour'

http://beingbad-arebelyell.blogspot.com/. I would think that delinquency and violent behaviour being linked to chocolate is a slightly more complex issue than this article suggests. There will always be other factors at play when looking at children's behavioural patterns.

For a start, the report suggests that chocolate has not been looked at separately from other 'sweets', and therefore, it has not conclusively been identified as the single contributary cause of bad behaviour. Also, the report does not appear to have taken into consideration other contributory factors, for example, environmental issuses, living conditions, genetic predisposition, etc. Therefore, I would consider the study to be flawed and uncomprehensive in its findings.
