    If they teach this in philosophy classes then i would be very impressed :D
    It might not be a bad idea, i can see someone starting a new course called Modern and technological philosophical perspectives on thought (or similar) :thumbup:

    There really should be an awareness day to bring attention to the plight of researchers who suffer from tunnel vision.

    That light they see ahead is often coming from a dead end.

    They obviously haven't understood the point of Wifi in the Crawley household, which is that there are no more cables. The cables don't become invisible, they are simply not there. It's Wifi.

    This statement is interesting in that it shows the undue influence of Freud in the house though. I believe Crawley's talk of umbilical cords is a reflection of the difficulties she faces in letting go as her teenagers become independent adults who don't need her any more. It's a cry for help - "Umbilical cord, Skype, don't leave me! Come to me, all the children of the world - you all need me!" She should be detained and treated for her Pied Piper complex before it causes any more harm.

    "tissue alert" is not refering to a Kleenex, but to the expensive security system she's had installed to detect any cell tissue from biological samples which may unduly influence her integrated qualitive methods. Her "Tissue Alert" is actually a big red flashing warning light over the door of her clinic.

    Thank you Esther, not everybody needs reminding of that.

    I can't seem to find any peer reviewed papers to support that assertion :p

    EC certainly assumes.

    Good start, but the fact that the children are attached to technological devices by an umbilical cord suggests a poor grasp of the basics of motherhood and basic biology. A Freudian would surely be wondering about displacement and imposter syndrome too. :p

    I've just checked my navel and cannot find a USB port in there. Kids today.

    Is online treatment what "kids" receive when they've been hung out to dry?

    A sad, but very important witness. Please retweet if you are om twitter.

    "I'm in an online group of almost 1000 parents of kids with ME. Many of these kids attend(ed) Esther Crawley's clinics/trials. None have recovered in 6 months. As far as I'm aware none have recovered. Statistics don't seem to match up with reality."

    Is anyone aware of what group this is? Might be worth someone with writing experience getting in touch with some members

    I guess someone with a Twitter account can contact the person with the signature motherofalien@agirlandme.

    Maybe the mother, and other poor parents in that group, would like to tell the world more about their experiences from those unscientific experiments with young people.

    I am on another online mum' s forum. Smaller but some have had similar opinions and experiences.
    There are a few good stories, too where staff advise against doing too much too soon. It would seem to depend who you get ( no pun intended)

    eeew indeed.

    Can't stand adults disrespecting their own kids to try and cosy in with other adults.

    That is so utterly appalling there are really no words. How is this person still in practice, much less getting cushy appointments to children's health?!

    This world is totally upside down.

    Indeed, is there not mechanisms to hold physicians who harm patients accountable? :emoji_face_palm:
