My state's claim to fame!

He is right, though. However, the people who have glandular problems are exempt. They have a genuine reason for being the way they are and truly suffer something none should have to.

Parents are a big issue with obesity. When their kids are young, many give them sweets and go to fast food places a lot, making their children accustomed to the food. So when their kids grow up, they are already fat because of their parents, and they eat the food their parents taught them was good. So they get more obese, and eventually look like the 300 Ib. people seen throughout America today.

Not even always that. Sometimes parents just don't get their kids to exercise because they feel they can't be arsed to do so.

That also, I forgot about that. Good point

Both of you are right. However when stating someone who is obese you should say fat instead of giving a number of lbs. Wallow. I see 454 lb. muscle men lol. You should say over fat or obese. Anyways the point is that parents need to either make their kids exercise (possibly do it with them to bond) or if their kid is a gamer type and doesn't like sports because they are boring you should take away his unhealthy and overly fatty foods. The problem isn't that parents don't feel they can be bothered with it but rather that they can't. Most people can't even take charge and keep cool in emergencies how can they possibly do it with their own kids? Parents are also scared shitless that some jackass will call the cops on them just because they won't buy their kid some ice cream. That happened back in Salem when our neighboors starting harrassing some guy because he didn't want his kid having ice cream. It's pretty sad when people think not caving into your kids demands no matter how unhealthy is abuse these days eh?

That's weird, my parents accustomed me to eat salads, organic foods, fruit, and all other healthy stuff at a young age. But then again, my mom is an extremely hard worker and to do all that stuff did and sill does require a lot of work. I guess that's another factor, some parents are too lazy to do anything. Isn't it so easy just to go to McDonald's and buy a burger? (I hate their food btw and when forced to eat it will eat a filet o' fish). Isn't it so easy to buy a pre-maked meal and just heat it up in the oven versus peeling and cutting organic vegetables and preparing healthy meat to eat? I state my point.

It is easy. People just don't care and that's a problem. My mom and I cook more than we eat out now (thankfully). Which reminds me, I need to go buy filo pastry!
