While it would be ideal to have nutritious food served to children in school, as long as the children are eating an appropriate number of calories and are active enough obesity should not be a problem. |
Well... also by lack of exercise really. You can eat like a fatass as a kid and especially teenager in most cases and still burn it off if you exercise the proper amount. And that exercise habit will carry into your adulthood when you do start eating healthier.
The eating poorly/too much part is neck and neck with it though.
Keep in mind physical ed classes are being canceled, sports are being cut, and why go outside and play when you have a gaming console? It's much easier for parents to watch you when you're parked in front of the TV then when they are outside playing.
Then again you have libtards saying sports like dodgeball and even other regular ones are unfair because it singles out kids and makes them feel bad. So there goes physical competition.
BOOM! FACE KICK!
