If firearms are framed alongside diseases like cancer, heart disease, or diabetes, the focus shifts away from crime, law enforcement, and personal responsibility, and instead recasts the issue as a healthcare or public health concern. That framing makes it easier to argue for government regulation as a form of “treatment.”
The recently released Make Our Children Healthy Again report by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services should be required reading for parents of all types.
Contained within its 20 pages are scores of topics that are designed to help parents improve their children’s health.
The report examines an increase of childhood chronic diseases. It explains how processed foods can harm kids, as well as what’s behind what it calls the “American Children’s Food Crisis.”
