Re: Which issue is most to blame for the current childhood obesity epedemic?
This was a hard one to choose, in my opinion there IS healthy food available in schools - but there's also just as much (if not more) junk food available. When kids can choose between a greasy pizza or vegetables.. chances are they're going to go with the pizza. I think technology has a lot to do with this topic as well. All these video and computer games make kids want to stay indoors being lazy. When I was younger I'm sure part of the reason I was always so skinny was because I was ALWAYS outside running around with the neighbors! When it comes down to it, I believe this is mainly the parents doing - teach your kids good habits, exhibit good habits.
