I found something worse than teletubbies.

And then people wonder why their kids are so ADHD.

There is actually a study out that shows that young kids who watch spongebob are much more likely to develop ADHD. Something about the frenetic pacing of the show (too much going on).

Ok, I'll bite. What in that video clip will cause ADHD?

My daughter loved yo gabba gabba and the wiggles, but now is more into Dora and Super Readers.

I wish she could just stick with PBS kids shows, they have less energy (a good thing) but she gets bored and upset until we turn on the sprout channel. It's like every show created for kids these days needs to have the energy level pushed up to 11. And then we wonder why kids have ADHD.

The chica show is the worst I've seen, I get a headache just trying to keep up with the constant scene changes and loud high pitched squeaking.

Heh, I didn't read all the posts in the thread, I guess others here have mentioned the same thing about ADHD...

yeah totally this.

too much moving stuff in a single scene (too busy, too jumpy, too many items moving around and blinking), too much color, sudden scene changes all the time without transitions.

... causes ADHD? In every child that sees it? How much exposure is required? Is there a 100% chance of the order developing? At what point is a human not susceptible to this problem any more?

If your point was more of a general "I wouldn't be surprised if kids watching this sort of thing on a regular basis causes them to be a bit more hyper generally", then that is somewhat different to an ADHD diagnosis.

Studies have shown that kids who watch frenettic paced shows at a young age are more likely to develop ADHD. Its not as simple as "if you do X, then Y will occur." Its based on statistical analysis which shows higher probability of Y occuring if X is done.

E.g., If you smoke, there is a higher probability that you will get lung cancer. Its not a certainty.

That was pretty psychedelic. It was bright, but didn't seem too ADHD-promoting until the windshield wipers part. Holy shit that was bouncy and nauseating.

Woah, I feel like I totally went on a acid trip or something.

We need a scientifically accurate version of that. School buses don't have seat belts, and if a bus was subjected to the forces that cause the chassis to bend the way it shows in that video, everybody inside would most likely be dead and if you consider it's doing that for at least several minutes by the time the bus stops it would most likely be a mush of flesh and broken bone fragments.

Would definitely make things interesting.
