I blame fast food restaurants, garage door openers, the fact that no one WALKS anywhere anymore, video games, etc.
Kids sit around, eat bad food and don't exercise enough, etc.
I blame parents also, though I don't think they should be telling their kids to loose weight either. They need to take responsibility and give their kids healthy foods and take away the video games and computers and tvs. Make them DO things...
