[quote=Anonymous]On your observations about children, I feel like I see what you’re saying about the US. Comparing my gen in 80s/90s to now. I have 27 nieces and nephews. And my kids. A good handful of them are overweight. Many of them are not. The divide? “Who wants to come out to play at the park with us?” We do soccer, lacrosse, running on the fields, jumping off the park equipment, all sorts of gymnastics moves the kids are teaching each other. The ones who don’t want to come along are on a screen, sitting. I am not judging them. But when they wonder why in future years the answer will be 8,000 hours of activity vs. 8,000 hours of sitting. I say this, as I am sitting. :)[/quote]
