Bingo! We have a winner! Thing is the parents are the culture. The
only exercise kids nowadays participate in regularly is opening the
fridge door and texting. Today kids are on the phone and eating 24/7,
and they don't have a choice. When I was growing up kids were not
permitted to use the phone or open the fridge without permission, no
TV without permission either, an dof course no cushy computer chairs
to lounge in hour after hour after hour. The streets were safe for
play because every mother was home watching out for every kid in the
hood. There was no fast food, today preparing dinner means rolling
through the drive-thru. Nowadays women have full time jobs out of the
home, they are NOT mothering. I'm really suprised that more kids
aren't abducted, raped, and murdered. Let's not punish the fat kids,
let's punish the fat heads who *play* at parenting. If you're not
there to parent your kid than you need to be removed from the home,
and prosecuted/incarcerated for criminal negligence... needing a
career is no excuse... if you can't afford a kid you need to keep your
legs closed and learn to swallow... if a guy can't afford a kid with
his wife staying home he needs to have a vasectomy, because he is
definitely not a man. If you have kids and can't afford them then you
are not a man and a women, you are kids having kids... actually the
truth be told yer just a pimp and a ho.

As far as I'm concerned anyone who foists their kids off on anyone
else to tend to is just as guilty of a felonius crime as any common
child molester, even moreso... farm livestock are far better tended to
than how the fat heads tend to kids.
