[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is insanely depressing. I like to pretend there are not people as ignorant and cold hearted as some of you clearly are. [/quote] It has been said that "fat" is the last bastion of prejudice. It's still acceptable to be hateful to fat people, under the guise of being concerned about their health. Have you noticed that all the science (i.e. metabolic disorder, differing levels of satiety, the affect of leptin, etc) is being ignored here? [/quote] So, what is your answer to OP's question then? Is it okay that there is a higher rate of obesity in children now then there was 50 years ago? Do you feel that is not a problem? Or, would you like to label all these kids as having a 'metabolic disorder'? Don't you think there might actually be something going on in our daily habits that is making kids more likely to be obese now?[/quote]
