What is Hyperventilating?

The other day we were listing to Adventures in Odyssey in the car (we don't go anywhere without it!) There was a guy who was hyperventilating and using a paper bag to breathe in and out of.....

Zach: Mom, why is he doing that?

Me: When some people get really stressed they have a hard time breathing, that helps them breathe and calm down (not the scientific explanation I know).

Zach: Well...it is good thing you don't have that problem when you are stressed out. ;)
