Dirty Eat, Dirty Big

My wife needs to read this!

This NY Times article basically says that a little dirt every now and then will help spur the development of a healthy immune system in babies/ kids.

Parents these days are so protective of their children, keeping them clean, wiping their sweat, freaking out when the kids drop their food and then putting into their mouths. The irony is that kids seem to fall sick more frequently compared to the good old days when our parents are less picky about absolute cleanliness.

The old hokkien saying is correct "Dirty eat, Dirty Big"!
