I just found out why and was astonished. Seems that when a kid gets hurt on school property the leagal beagles sue the school. It happened so ofen that many schols have opted to removed the swings, stopped sports where running was involved and most of the playgrounds.

I agree, it is the lack of swings that is causing obesity...

Yes that's the ONLY explanation.

Maybe it's because they all sit indoors watching tv and playing video games all day instead of playing outside because the media has everyone paranoid about paedophiles.

Everytime I go to a park, even now, I always run to the swings
They're scary when you've had a bit to drink!

Of course. There is no way in the world that it has anything to do with fast food, TV or video games.

I blame it on the easier transportation, ignorance or no choice in what to consume, and lack of pac man games Those games are way exciting before and you got all worked up and sweating

In general, more people of all ages are overweight. It is just more disturbing when you see overweight children. People need to make better food choices and realize the impact their food choices have on their health. Often overweight children have overweight parents. The entire family needs to work through their weight issues.

A weird new food made its way to the Pacific National Exhibition this year: deep fried oreos. Sounds dreadful to me but who knows?

And here I was blaming the Jimmy Dean sausage sandwiches I had for breakfast growing up. Considering I was actually active on the playground without having swings or anything... Hm.

It's government meddling. By the time a kid dons his knee pads, elbow pads and dorky looking helmet, if he has any self respect, he don't want to be seen looking like that by anyone.

No, kids are fat because parents are lazy.

I agree. When the games were of the calibre of pacman I assume nobody wanted to play them so they all went to play outside.
