This reminds me of a study of left handed people a long time ago. They knew the percentage of left handed children and then took the percentage of left handed adults and found that it was much lower. Naturally they assumed that left-handed people didn't live as lone. What they didn't take in to consideration was that teachers and parents used to try to turn left-handers into right-handers with some success.
