We’re not so sure if telling fat kids they’re fat is the right way to battle childhood obesity.
You want thinner kids?
- Stop cutting school budgets so they can make the days long enough for recess and PE.
- Pay parents more so they don’t have to work two jobs and can get home and cook and eat as a family.
- Stop rewarding monoculture farming by overturning the legislation enacted during the Nixon administration.
You know what? You could take the corn subsidies and give them to schools.
Oh, and how about building communities that encourage a front-yard way of life so kids can meet and play?
And finally, everyone should stop buying into the culture of fear perpetuated by nervous white folks in homes and on television.
