Obesity an epidemic?

This is absolutely ridiculous. It is not an epidemic. It is the result of lazy irresponsible parents. Letting their children sit on their butts all day playing video games . Faces glued to the computer screen drinking Cokes and eating junk food all the while. I'm here to tell you all, habits, both good and bad, are formed by influence. You've no one to blame but yourselves. It is so bad that fast food places are actually selling milk and apple slices for children. Give me a break! Is it so hard to say no when your kids say they want McDonalds? By the way, it is a heck of alot cheaper to buy stuff at the grocery and fix it at home than to run and get a cheeseburger. Change starts with yourself. Quite frankly, I'm tired of having my tax dollars go towards enabling stupidity and dependence.
