No RSI in children

This article about an NES Controller hacked into a laser mouse contends that ergonomic products created RSI because children play on video games for several hours a day and never get RSI.

Hmmm, let's think about this. RSI takes a long time to develop. I worked on a computer 10 or so hours a day for 10 years before I ever got it. Children tend to do a lot of things adults don't, like natural exercise, lay around on the floor, contort and stretch their bodies in gym or sports. Besides, who here worked with ergonomic products before they were injured? Anyone? Not me. I just use them now.

Nope, I don't believe it.
