Especially when folk are getting in a lather about the suggestion that children could be taught at school how to brush their teeth, which would be a lot more useful in promoting health.

Not sure how they expect me to make a naturally skinny kid suitably fat as he eats pretty healthily and stops when he's full. Maybe I ought to drive him the mile to school like the other kids in order to save him from expending calories?
