This is so true!! People, especially children, nowadays are not exposed to enough dirt and germs. I have friends that won't let their kids play outside because they might catch something or get dirty. I really feel sorry for the kids. I'm not sure how scientific this is, but I have noticed that urban/suburban kids that live in "clean" environments are sicker than their country cousins who grow up on farms and play/work around animals, barns, etc., the supposed "dirty" places. And, don't get me started on antibacterial products....people don't realize that these kill the good ones along with the "bad" ones, and that is a huge problem.
I personally feel we'd all be better off if we cleaned less. I vow to lead this charge and will start now!!
