Shy kids, is there an epidemic?

I found the shy kids question most odd. anybody agree? I would think lots of kids experience some shyness growing up. I dont think it qualifies as one of the 7 deadly sins either?

Update:

I guess we should show the young lady some compassion, she seems to have some issues to deal with.

    I found the shy kids question arrogant, and I looked at the person's profile, and it looks like this person is narcissistic, and stuck on herself.

    I know a lot of kids that were shy like I was growing up, one is a lawyer now working for a government agency. What the question asker needs to do, is get with the real life, grow up, and stop asking questions like this, especially since a couple days ago she asked if there should be a law against children that are NOT hyperactive.

    EDIT: I know why she puts these questions on here, because she craves attention, she asks questions that would make people mad, so they would answer her questions, she thinks it makes her look popular, when all is makes her look is arrogant, immature and stupid

    There is definitely an epidemic going on but it has nothing to do with shy kids and everything to do w/people who can't tolerate behaviors or personality traits they themselves do not posess. Good grief, I'll take a shy kid over an obnoxious loud mouthed one any day. Having been painfully shy myself at one point, I know it is not something that you can just overcome.

    Desemeran: I usually catch them before I answer but I think the account date threw me!

    Shyness reminds me of inferiority complexes. I can't discuss this so much though as far I am concern, it also has something to do with how the children are being brought up. Although shy kids may seem to be aloof talking or communicating with their peers, majority of them are mostly doing well in their written exams. Now, if by chance the kid does not, well maybe there is something wrong somewhere. There are times shy kids need our help. We only have to be more sensitive and patient.

    She/he/whoever is a troll. She's posted a series of similarly ridiculous questions. The only purpose of the question was to rile people up. I'm surprised so many people took the bait.
