Comments on: Psychology Across the Generations http://insight-magazine.org/2009/headline/psychology-across-the-generations/ The Magazine for Alumni and Friends of The Chicago School of Professional Psychology Sun, 20 Feb 2011 23:54:30 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: karen http://insight-magazine.org/2009/headline/psychology-across-the-generations/comment-page-1/#comment-235 karen Mon, 01 Mar 2010 21:07:03 +0000 http://insight-magazine.org/?p=429#comment-235 Thank you for this piece. Regarding Milennials' ability to handle stress, may I suggest that overeating is also a risky, self-soothing behavior? I am not a statistician, yet the data I found below looks as if childhood obesity and morbid obesity doubled (or more) during their formative years (6-19 yrs). As a famous Gen X song went: Don't drink, don't smoke, what do ya do? http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/hus/hus09.pdf#073 Thank you for this piece.
