I just saw on the news this 15month old kid who weighs 25kg's and gains 2kg's extra per month. His bigger brother who is only 5years old weighs 62kg's !!!!! sheeeezz!~ talk about childhood obesity! Doctors say they dont know why them two kids are gaining so much weight. Man I gotta say it was disgusting to look at :p they reckon they're gonna win wrestling championships when they're older, I dont doubt it either. At this rate they'll probably gain so much weight they'll die (62kg's and only 5years old... what will happen in 15years time and they start eating ten times as much macdonald's and crap?).

People really have to consider
-what are the parents doing to help/cause this

If people have a genetic pre disposition to it,surely the parents would think 'ok i gota be strict or else they will be unhealthy!'

What's really funny here in America is that McDonalds stopped selling supersize fries 'cause they were afraid people would sue them for heart trouble and other health concerns. It's funny how large are drinks are too. You would be shocked to see what some people order here, a big fat-dripping sandwich, a huge order of french fries, a pie and a liter and a half cup (bucket) of Diet Coke. I do it too, so I can't laugh but I'm gonna laugh anyway.

But what's funny in a sick/bad way is that people here actually do take on lifestyles that cause them probelms in whatever form (cigarettes/alcohol/cholesterol) and then sue the companies that made the products they purchase, blaming them for their own lifestyle choices. We've become way too litigious here and we're rapidly becoming a culture of victims. Some even think that to cry foul and ask for restitution is "empowerment."
