My parents raised us to clean our plates because there were starving children in China that would be glad to have our food. Never understood the logic of that but we didn't leave the table until our plate was clean. And our dog would not eat brussel sprout! Dam I hated them!
I'm saying most of these kids also have obese parents, and the parents need to get their kids outside and exercise with them. Go to the community pool, play baseball, get them into skateboarding. In fact I don't think I ever saw a fat skateboarder!
Even Obama goes bike riding with his daughters, a good example.
NEVER LET A STUMBLE IN THE ROAD BE THE END OF THE JOURNEY!
