Re:This Shoe Helps Prevent Type II Diabetes in Kid (Score 0)

From outside the US, there are many shows that point out how bad the average American parent is and how little Americans excercise. The US leads the world in hours spent in front of the tv, proportion of obese people etc. Then we all head down that road. If the US could get fitter, not fatter, then maybe the rest of the planet (ok, read western pseudo-americanised countries) would follow suit. New Zealand is slowly getting fatter too, as our teenagers emulate the lifestyles we are drip-fed on tv. I only hope this is a phase that we will grow out of.
