Problem is that we all know obesity is not healthy. Not healthy means that it cannot be acceptable. We are at a crossroads when it comes to healthy lifestyles and "freedom". People want to be accepted for unhealtiness, but at the same time want to be declared healthy.
I remember when Michelle Obama was going to schools and talking to kids about eating healthy. Parents were OUTRAGED!!! "NO ONE IS GOING TO TELL ME WHAT TO FEED MY KIDS." Morons. Granted, they dont have to take advice from Michelle Obama, but clearly via science, we know what is and is not healthy. But nope, in America, people want their "freedom." They'd rather have the sense of feeling "free" and feeding their kids junk food, then listen to someone else who tells them, "You should be eating vegetables." Can't have that because it takes away from their "freedom."
You know its a sad state of affairs when people would rather make poor choices just to feel "free."
Shit, if I was a parent, Id be ADVOCATING to have some sort of nutrition or fitness expert to go to my kids school and educate them about healthy eating habits and exercise. Too many dumb parents in America are like, "DONT TELL MY KIDS WHAT TO DO!! ONLY I CAN GIVE THEM ADVICE!!!! FREEEEEEEEEEEEDOM!!"
