Kids growing bigger bellies

AdelaideNow... Kids growing bigger bellies:

"They found that the belly fat of children and teenagers had increased by more than 65 per cent since the 1990s - directly in line with rising obesity rates."

Fat stomachs can mean heart disiease. Fat stomachs in children are not good. The increase so fast is worrying. It has to be the food. What they are eating. I doubt the US is the only country with children with fat stomachs. The way houses are built , kids cannot run around. The way streets are , children are not safe running on the streets. The way food is, there is too much processing and not enough preparation. How many children smell a dinner cooking? We really need to look at what we are doing because bringing children intot he world and then letting them get so unhealthy , so fast is not very smart. 2-5 year old boys are putting on the most fat around their stomachs. This is pretty sad and I think if we all looked at our nations, we might be a bit embarrassed about how we are bringing up our children. All these toys and sedentary activities are making them sick. Poor nutrition is making them sick. No places to run is making them sick. I guess longer working hours for parents mean the kids are in care and sitting more. We need to change.
