Growth hormones and kids hitting puberty earlier than ever... Any hard facts or conclusive evidence?

Question by The Code Man: Growth hormones and kids hitting puberty earlier than ever... Any hard facts or conclusive evidence?
I've heard growth hormones are fed to livestock, (not all) and in turn can be transfered to eggs or found in the flesh of the animal. What are your opinions on this? Any facts?

There was a documented case in south america some years ago where chickens had been fed hormones and the kids who ate it were developing breasts and menstruation as early as 6. One case was about a little boy who developed breasts and female characteristics.

Does anyone know about (HGH) Human Growth Hormone? My father has worked hard all his life only to come down with Parkinsins disease. He only has a minimal amount of time left, and I would like to make his last day's as comforting as possible. He has plenty of money to pay for whatever he needs. Perhaps someone might know of anything that might elevate his quality of life in his remaining day's. Anyone?
Thank you
