Actually, the reason is that the neonics appeared at the same time as GMOs
so they obviously are the cause of children's allergies. (No I am not
serious.)

Correlation does not imply causation. That is one of the oldest scientific
truths but which scientists still fail to observe. It also can cause great
harm as shown by the anti-vaccine movement and Autism and the recent death
of a child from whooping cough. The death also shows the fallacy of the
Precautionary Principle (vaccines may cause Autism so let's not vaccinate).
