Wow, I just read that Fire Retardant Chemical is found at 3 times the level in Children than in adults.
That is partly because children are touching things that have that chemical and then put their hands and other objects into their mouths so that the chemical then gets into their bodies.
Also, young children eat far more than adults relative to their body mass, exposing them to a higher relative dose of toxins through their diet.
Health problems related to this? It says in the article that "a single dose of PBDEs during brain development can lead to permanently altered behavior patterns."
