Queensland study links child hunger to lack of knowledge
Guardians of childhood in Queensland lack awareness of their power, a Royal Society address revealed. Dr Turner reported 500 children weighed showing 184 percent subnormal weight among boys and 23.9 percent among girls in four towns, with 11.4 percent younger children. Many subnormals tied to deficient diets, especially milk, while some overnormals stemmed from early development.
